more royal fail. Most of that is their 'handling fee'.

Picked this up from work for £4 including staff discount and its still in the slipcase. I know there's a criterion release stateside but checking out this uk release it looks to be the same release extras and all. Considering criterion's is £16 before postage I can live without the fancy cover.

I got a dreaded RM charge of £11.09 the other day. Went to pay it yesterday at the sorting office and they don't even accept card so I had to drive a few miles to the local cash machine and then go back... Talk about rubbing it in

No Midnight Movies yesterday. If it doesn't come today chance's are it's not coming at all. Will have to wait till wednesday to make an enquiary.
And I thought DVDworldUSA didn't have to worry about custom's.

That's why I'm considering cancelling the order and placing two separate ones! Or take the risk that they're gonna let the extra 85p slide.

I really found out about that last week as I went to collect something which had a customs charge and luckily had enough cash in my wallet to be old to pay the 'fine' otherwise I'd have had to find an ATM somewhere.

Is it really too much trouble to have a chip and pin system in each sorting office?

Just another of the many unfortunate facets of Royal Mail

Just pre-ordered ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS limited edition off the Arrow site. Have just got back off holiday and read about the announcement, glad I got one of the 500 in time!! May grab a steelbook copy at a later date. This will be my first blu ray double dip and possibly one of the only films I would douple dip for, especially seeing as Arrow have gone with the 'proper' name ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS rather than the boring BU choice of ZOMBIE

Me too. Only spotted that the first 500 copies will have the slipcase, last week. I don't normally care about slipcases, but all of my Arrow Blus have them and I couldn't possibly have one without.

Can't wait to trawl through the extras. Already have the BU Zombie, so I'm fine for the film in beautiful HD. Unless arrow can pull the rabbit out of the hat and make their print even better, although I think that could only be done if by some miracle they have the missing footage of the fat zombie from the yacht at the beginning, walking out of the Hudson. I've only seen one still from that scene and I doubt very much that it even existed on film.
