Hi guys.  I don’t mind if I missed out on The Matrix UHD - I’m really just trying to understand if I did and whether signing up for something isn’t a guarantee.

 

thanks!

There are no guarantees on any GB. That said we rarely have a problem fulfilling requests on most titles (although sometimes we limit requests to premium members). @ksosk is checking and will let you know asap.

I love 💕 that we are all “in sync” today, it feels so much better/relaxed when we all get along w/each other!😘

 

Oh, I'm just here for the GBs 🤣🤣

I'd like to hang out in the english room more, but I don't have much time between work and MP duties. Even now I'm doing some work to get caught up for Monday. 

p.s. I have a very good friend who works for the postal service. One day I'm hoping to get him here on MP but he has a lot of stuff going on at the moment (got married, first child on the way, doing major house construction)

@deckard99,

 

I’ve always said, why the younger folk do not start out with a trade school and not college 🤔... this is what everyone needs anyways in everyday life, I.e. the plumber, the electrician, etc. ...food for thought!😉

I totally agree that it’s a mistake to push all HS students into college. Those not suited would be much better off in trade schools and would have less student loan debt to boot. I actually think it’s starting to head that way as people now recognize that student loan debt is out of control.

It’s nice to hear when someone enjoys where they work. I’m happy for you, because working in a healthy environment makes for great days. I’m thankful for my job, because it gives me a chance to save more & buy most of the goodies I want, but the environment isn’t as healthy as it could be. If the company could pull it off tomorrow they would replace us all with machines. 

Keep your resume updated and make lots of connections! You never know when, but change will happen whether you like it or not. It happened to me.

I keep hearing that there is only 3.5% unemployment but the reality is that most of those jobs are minimum wage or close to it. For me and lots of people I know it’s been a real struggle to find good jobs and there is loads of competition. Most jobs I applied for had 100+ applicants on the first day. This trend has been going on for many years though and I don’t think it will change unless we bring more production back to the USA. The coronavirus has exposed the weakness of supply chains across the globe so hopefully there will be more balance in the future. Not smart to put all our eggs in one basket.

I’m use to hearing about companies trying to push the older workers out & bring in new blood. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a company fully staffed with just their seasoned workers. Are there plans at your company to hire young?

Nobody is being pushed out (which is nice for a change) but some are starting to retire and we are trying to modernize so younger talent (like me!) is being brought in to drive change. I’m new and really happy to be there as it’s a great place to work with loads of opportunity.

Thanks @popohd 🤗🤗

I love the embossed title 😍

No millennials at my company. As a matter of fact I’m probably one of the youngest there 😅. That presents a whole different set of challenges 🙄

Yeah just like my Best Buy. Usually the “sold out” steelbooks are restocked after a while. It’s pretty rare that they don’t (for example, 2001 a space odyssey)

Would it be possible to remove me from the group buy? I didn't realize that there would be a group buy of the trilogy with the hardbox; I was planning on getting the trilogy from ebay later on.

 

Sorry about that.

@optic certainly! Since you have joined the Matrix 1-3 with Box GB I've removed you from this empty box GB 👍

I'm going to have to make do with this 🤪 

Oh no! We've crashed and our yellow cargo crates are floating out into space. Trouble in the verse!

Stop it! Noooooo! I don't want to see it @ksosk. If I look I might buy 😅

@deckard99 back in December I put a request in for the single UHD Club matrix 1. If I signed up for this GB for all three could my original order (made in December) be cancelled.?I know you guys don't normally do that.

@ksosk please advise if this is possible.

@deckard99 and @ksosk

A bit confused.. So there are 2 GBs running 

(1) this one for hard box and the three editions 

(2) another one for the hard box only? Please confirm.. 

 

Also, will the three Matrix editions still fit the hardbox whilst in the KSL01 protective slip cover? 

OR will they have to be removed from the KSL01 to fit into the hardbox? Any idea 

 

Many thanks 

I've no idea on the protectors. @ksosk ?

Why wasnt there a GB for this when the Revolutions and Reloaded GBs were announced ? I feel like I could have saved some money by ordering all 3 movies together in the box rather than separately.

The idea of doing a box is recent. We didn’t know it was going to happen back then. And as far as I know the number of sets available is extremely limited.

Your way of buying sets is probably the most reasonable especially if you can afford it. Using myself as an example I wanted to have all my DC releases just from HDZeta. UMania does a release of Joker & I passed on it waiting on HDZeta’s release. Well once I seen those Beauty Shots I was kicking myself because I’m not completely sure HDZeta will create a better set. It surely will be nice, but I may have just passed on the better set. I don’t plan on doing that anymore unless money or some other reason keeps me from getting whatever it is I want.

I'm a notorious double-dipper! 🤣

Yeah, not everyone can do it though. I have some editions that I'll probably sell at some point but Umania Joker won't be one of them! 🤡 

 We now have a GB for the complete Matrix Trilogy 1-3 WITH Hardbox!!! 

anyone interested in this, please join asap, as the GB will be open only a short time.
