Did you get a email from zavvi telling you it was dispatched
or did it just turn up without any notice from zavvi

I got an email from Zavvi.

So for those of us who haven't opened our SteelBook - Are there actually three disc holders inside, or just two?

From the eMail Zavvi sent out, I got the impression that they had originally announced a 3-disc version but the studio then decided to cut it down to just two discs. However, it could also be interpreted as it is supposed to have three discs inside, but due to a factory error it actually only included two of the three - Which is it?


Did anyone else notice that the extra disc came from "Washbag Outlet Store" rather than Zavvi? They also couldn't be bothered to include my surname on the address label either!

 

[ALK]

Problem solved, right? XD Its not like Zavvi shipped the disc in nothing you know (You'll have to bend the paper sleeve just a tiny bit, but it then fits and shuts perfectly.)

Or again just use the DVD copy as a frizzbe, unless you want to creep out your kids on car journeys.... XD

Hi Paul Boland

Thank you for purchasing “The Wicker Man - The Final Cut - Zavvi Exclusive Limited Edition Steelbook” on order number *********.

As you may already be aware when we first announced this title it was expected to be a 3 disc release containing extra cuts of the movie, unfortunately it has come to our attention that the product only contained a 2 disc version.

We have contacted the studio responsible for the release of The Wicker Man and arrangements have been made to send the missing third disc to you. As soon as we are ready to send these to you we will be back in touch.

Got it today in post in Ireland. Got dispatch email on 20th November.

 

[Mizu_Ger]

Mine arrived yesterday (I'm in Dublin). I didn't receive any emails from them so it was a nice surprise.

 

[Playzocker]

Zavvis user support concerning replacements is just incredible. The second time that I just got the disc in the mail, without having to do anything. Awesome!

 

[Flloydo]

They still haven't sent mine out and I've asked twice and they keep telling me sorry we don't know when it will be sent out. I had this pre ordered from day one and raised this issue with them the second I got it. They are proper mugging me off!

 

[XXHAPPY GILMORE]

If we order the steelbook now will we still get the extra disc?

 

[stevien]

I received an email about it but still have not got the extra disc.

 

[ihategiantspiders]

Got my 3rd disc yesterday. It seems all us Irish peeps got our discs fairly quickly. It's great that Zavvi followed up on this.

 

[thecardman23]

Placed an order. Too cheap to resist for 9.99GBP. Hope I get my extra disc soon. Did you have to email or do they send it to you automatically?

I'm In Rep of Ireland

I not got the 3rd disc yet

I got the original email telling me I will get it but I not got a dispatch email yet that some have

I sent them an email asking when I can expect delivery and they gave me this reply


Hello Paul,

Thank you for getting in touch about order **********.

This will be sent to you in the second batch, as the first batch has already gone out.

If there is anything else that we can do, then please do not hesitate to get in touch and a member of our team will be happy to help.

I think the extra disc only went to those who pre-ordered because the listing was incorrect. Zavvi now has a correctly listed 1xBD plus 1xDVD release so I doubt they are obliged to give away the second BD.

I've been waiting for this price drop so I can combine it with the 3 disc release. Got some reward points to redeem as well so I'm pretty happy!

This is my understanding aswell, but if someone who ordered it today can confirm this when it arrives, that would be great.

 

[Filmbloke]

This is down to £9.99 now... To double dip or not?

Dammit that sucks! Does anyone know which version is the best?

I generally like to have the directors cut, but is the Final cut as good?

 

[glennturner21]

still waiting for my 3rd disk

 

[Black Sunshine]

my third disk arrived last week. came in a small white disc sized envelope.
