Secured some of my longtime grails thanks to @Masterblaster and the EoY sale. Very very happy 😊

i get where you coming from, in the hope you get something and watching the non payers becoming the banned and they where obviously not serious they just joined because they fancied it in reality but never come back when due to pay.

 

just out of interest have you joined this thread so you don't miss out on gbs again and set up email notification for that thread 

save you missing the gb as it goes live in the first place?

 

 

 

 

basil 👍

I've noticed a lot more nonpayers lately, even long term people are dipping out. Kinda crazy.

I'm already subscribed to that thread with email notifications on -- I've gotten everything else so far without issue, this one I didn't know was going to be on reserves when I joined. Looks like I'm not far from the main list though 🤞 It was back when I was still kinda anti-CM because of prior things I'd seen, that's why I took so long to hop on 🤣 Now they have grown on me ever since BOP... which I missed but grabbed on John's sale. Now I hop on without hesitation 😝

Best Buy is VERY annoying lol!

Anyone else sign up for a GB, end up on a reserve list, and keep randomly checking it to see if any main listers get kicked off? Lol. I signed up for The Exorcist CM GB awhile ago and I'm on the reserve list (#8) and slowly but surely I keep seeing red Xs pop up in the main list... 5 counted so far. Then I saw at least one person in the reserve list ahead of me was banned too. I'm like only a couple more people and I'm set!! Is that bad? Lmao

Can anyone confirm that The Little Mermaid is infract available for in-store pick-up? I've been trying for months and I add it to the cart and it says cant do it.

It hasn't been in stock in months, it's a glitch on their site. Many people have tried to order it and it doesn't work or go through. When it originally popped up it was near or around Black Friday so people thought it'd be a reprint title like they did on the prior year's BF sale (BB reprinted Jaws, OUATIH, and other steelbooks and put them up for a deal). But it never ended up coming to stores or stocking and the listing never fixed or went back to OOS I guess

Undoubtedly an insanely gorgeous release all around. Of course the BS drops right when I'm about to go to sleep though lol, is the GB coming very soon? Need to hop on the boxset for sure

Our very own UK Hubmaster Carl @blu.steel33 came to NYC for a visit last week. My wife and I had a really nice time with him and his wife, seeing some of the NYC sights and we ate some great food in Chinatown too. 

 

 

 

The food looks absolutely amazing. But also, most importantly, look at your wholesome face Ken!! Loved seeing you pop up!!

Hope you two had loads of fun 😁

 I love 90 day fiance I'm still obsessed!

The earlier seasons had the most cringiest moments I have ever experienced in my life especially with AZAN! 

You are not alone!!! I binge watched all of the series and spinoffs. It's so entertaining lol. Never forget Mohamed and Danielle

Goodnight everyone, it's 11 pm on a Friday night and I'm exhausted 💤😴

Not for me, I like being able to choose. Only having two slips limits my choices. I also dont like hdzetas special packs, I think they're dumb

HDZeta special packs are the bane of my existence. +1

Watched the latest ep of Euphoria season 2 last night

And then I also watched the latest ep of 90 Day Fiance Before the 90 Days

And lastly, I watched the Olympics figure skating team event and watched US take silver 😁 Still obsessed with Hubbell/Donohue's rhythm dance to Rhythm Nation

Won't let me embed for some reason but here's a link to watch it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvydXPN-x_k

Was last week a long week for anyone else? I feel exhausted still. It was nice to watch the Olympics figure skating team event in between everything, but man. Onto another long week I think 😅

Good morning and good week to everyone!

I did not realize this was the response to membership tier thread and thought I was in English room 😅 Nevermind carry on lmao

@atomicblonde @MM3

Thank you both for helping out.   Especially on such an old post. 

Now forgive a senile old man,  but just to clarify,  your saying the big pink sticker is the non numbered version? (Or possibly unnumbered) And the smaller circle sticker was your group buy. Correct?

 

Supposedly there's a number sticker on the bottom for The Blu ones, but I don't remember seeing one on my Atomic Blonde copy (but I also had a friend source it from Korea so I dunno, I also could've not looked hard enough). The Kimchidvd circle sticker and numbering card are originally direct from Kimchi and any GBs hosted that bought/sourced through Kimchi are included. You're not senile to me, no worries 😄

30 minutes ago, MM3 said:

Okay, I wasn't sure what you mean by not directly through KimchiDVD.  Most people do not consider group buys direct purchases.  Perhaps you mean other retailers like Yes Asia or something like that?  Seems odd to me, though, unless KimchiDVD did something similar to what Filmarena did where they printed extra stock without numbering after their standard stock sold out.

 

I meant any original stock not bought direct from Kimchi, group buys aren't direct purchases but usually sites like MP I believe buy/arrange direct through the retailer (in this case Kimchi). Yes, any other non-Kimchidvd retailers is what I meant. I'm not sure if it's entirely unnumbered, I've been told there's a numbering sticker at least but there's no numbering card

48 minutes ago, MM3 said:

I think only the part about the sticker is correct?  Or maybe it's not?  I have no idea about the pink sticker.  I bought my one click in a group buy, and all 3 editions had numbering cards on the back of each slip.

The group buy (and presumably any GBs ran for it) was through Kimchi though, I got Wind River through the MP GB and I had the Kimchi stickers and numbering cards instead of the The Blu sticker and no numbering card

So one of our members posted their new pick up of this one,  and it got me thinking.  So i pulled out mine and noticed a difference. So the question is,  can any of our more learned members explain the difference to me regarding the front "The Blu" sticker?

I can! Kimchi did this with Wind River too. All stock sold directly from Kimchi had the Kimchi sticker and numbering card. All stock not bought directly from Kimchi had The Blu sticker and no numbering card. I found this out after I also got this same edition and was surprised to see no numbering card and a big “The Blu” sticker 😅

If you didn't get a renewal invite either, you're not alone. A little caught off guard/surprised right now

I hope this is a good sign that I'll be able to get off the reserve list for The Exorcist then 😝

Dropped down $1 to $33.99, re-stock coming?

Nah, prices drop even when steelbooks are completely sold out and it doesn't mean there's a restock coming. I think it's just an automated thing

I will get it just to lazy at the minute. When I see queue’s and no appointments available just puts me off. I would rather just go home yeah I know how that sounds. What booster did u get? I’ve had Pfizer for both of my other injections and only had a dead arm.

God I wish I got Pfizer... I got Moderna and I didn't have anything major other than fatigue and the dead/painful arm for a few days on my first shot. Then my second shot I had the fatigue and painful arm again, but I also had a delayed arm reaction a week after where it swelled up very large and red and was very hot and itchy. I had to put anti-itch cream on it because it was driving me bonkers. It went away in like a week but that same symptom came back for me on the booster plus I had a fever for like 12 hours + aches all over my body from it (because I rode it out and didn't take anything for like 10-12 hours to help it because I remembered something about not taking stuff on the original doses or something -- I remembered wrong though, it's only you shouldn't take it beforehand to 'cover' symptoms or reactions). 

Apparently my arm reaction is more common with Moderna than Pfizer, hence why I wish I would've gotten the latter. It's not like I knew I'd have a reaction anyway, I've never had any reactions before 😫

Anyway none of this is to deter you, I would rather go through some symptoms and help to protect myself (and others of course -- though I don't leave the house much since the pandemic started tbh), just needed to whine a little somewhere 😝🤣

Rear Window OAB from Blufans arrived for me! Thank you very much MP! 😁
