I have a standard letterbox, it came through with no visible damage to the cardboard box it came in. The box was similar to what Amazon used to use. Basically the standard Zavvi packaging for steels, but slightly bigger and brown, if that makes sense. Pretty much like below style:

Lucky you! Atleast one of us lucked out. If they can't get a replacement I'll just take the refund. I'm not keeping that for their usual pittance partial refund offer, it looks awful in hand.

it took quite a while to get the white boxes for regular steelbook releases, but now we need the equivalent for those arrow releases... id say 90% of my arrow LE purchases come with some sort of annoying damage
 
Really? Where did they mention this?
I swear it's been posted on a few threads here, I'd struggle to find or reference them though, hopefully another IRE/EU member will be able to fill in the blanks for you. I did find a reddit post with an EU buyer who updated his progress after contacting zavvi..

does that mean theyre not shipping from guernsey or what do they mean by „distribution centre within the EU“? because Guernsey is definitely not within the EU and i was paying VAT almost everytime...

it would be awesome if i didnt have to pay VAT anymore from zavvi orders (did not have to pay for true romance)

It applies to orders shipped from UK warehouse

The UK warehouse is based in warrington it's the Hut warehouse


If you do get hit by customs for vat contact Zavvi they willl refund you that payment anyway


Prices in Euro's increased on Zavvi website since July 1st if you not already noticed
The price increase is to cover EU vat

Zavvi though should remove UK vat from price before the EU vat is added to price

Example I ordered Dune before July 1st the price was €52.99
After July 1st the price on Zavvi website in Euro's increased to €59.99

The UK Stering price remains the same £44.99

i would assume that they dont remove UK vat to subsidise higher shipping costs for international orders
