Koray Savas 2,251 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 In less than a week I will have the set in my hands!That would be cool if I had it next Tuesday. Amazon has been known to ship things and get things to people's doors just before the release date. I remember I got Transformers a day or two before the release date.Oh that's cool. That's never happened to me though. I just meant like literally just under a week lol. I'll probably have it around noon next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjguitar 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Does the United States Postal Service work on Veteran's Day?No the USPS is closed on Veteran's Day. If you're ordering it from Amazon, Amazon ships via UPS. All the other carriers still work.Amazon super saver shipping is USPS, if you pay for 2 day shipping that is UPS.

Henry B 50 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I still don't understand how "Desert Chase" can be so short. Even shorter than the OST??Well, the OST was transferred at the wrong speed. I have a corrected version that runs 7:30. If this is accurate, then the Concord version matches it.It could be that the DCC transfer (and the leaked Concord Raiders) are actually too slow.

King Mark 3,630 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 ToD End Credits Edit :Final Verdict using true NTSC Rear Channel Rip vs RPO (first 15 seconds)(Using headphones in "audiophile range" and a top of the line PC soundcard)1)Edit with NTSC rear channel rip: Scratchy top end distortion ,noticeable reverb transition between rear channel DVDrip (hollow sound) and full channel DVDrip .Cannot get used to it. Probably why I discarted the idea a few years ago (but had forgotten)2)Edit with RPO : A(very) slight mismatch in ambiance (slightly more boomy) and percussions(?) .Tempo is exact and transition smooth musically .Once you get rid of the "psychological purist" effect that you cheated by using another recording it sounds pretty seamless ,especially after several listens or the next day after you don't remember exactly how the DVD rip sounded.Winner :Edit with RPO...I stand by it .I think it is easier to get accustomed to a slight performance mismatch than a jarring sound quality differencePlease do not emit an opinion if your using imprecise PC speakers( there are still monkey howls ,crickets and frogs in The Starving Village) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyO 62 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 And out of interest does anyone know how much Peter will charge for international postage on the Superman box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,306 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 International Rates: Rates begin at $5.99 per order (including the first item plus $2 for each additional item, plus additional fees for larger box sets) for Standard Air Mail shipments or an individually calculated rates.That's all it says about international shipping at Movie Music. It says additional fees for box sets, so that probably includes this one. Have also contacted Australian retailers and it looks like no distribution arm is releasing this set here.

MattyO 62 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I know, I've asked around Australian retailers with no luck (which I expected since the soundtrack industry doesn't exactly flourish down here). I've already ordered with SAE, however I used PayPal before their price went up, so I don't know if I have to pay anything additional since my payment has all been done already.

crumbs 14,306 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 What was the expected shipping duration with SAE again?And do they charge you based on the exchange rate at the moment of shipping, or the moment of ordering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyO 62 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I think they charge according to the exchange rate on the day of shipping.I don't know how long it will take, but generally orders I make through SAE arrive a week after shipping. The site says it could take anywhere from 1-4 weeks if you're a betting man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert 475 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 If you contact amazon and say: 'hey look this retailer here is cheaper'Will they drop the price? Some physical stores do it hereAmazon.de does it... it's called "lowest price guarantee", though it doesn't change the price in their system, but refund you the difference (though only to the balance of your Amazon-account). I don't know if the other Amazons got it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissPadmé 17 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Amazon.de had the Indy 4 blu-ray listed for 24,99€ and after one big dvdstore listed it for 14,99€!! they offered it for 14,88€ they actually CHANGED the price in their systemBut now it went up again..

Jay 37,336 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I still would have preferred Return To The Village properly seguing into the full real End Credits properly over either. Plenty of room for it on disc 2 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent B 337 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I canceled my Amazon order simply put Peter (MovieMusic) for a limited time has an offer for the box set at $39.99 with Priority Shipping it's $45.98. Ya I might not get it on November 13th but that's okay I'm saving a few bucks. The limited time offer ends 11/11 so anyone who wants to jump on it now better do so!Edit: I take that back Peter just emailed me back and he said with shipping it'll be $47.98. That's still cheaper than Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I am almost certain it will. I am also almost certain that this has been discussed before, but Amazon.com always overestimates the shipping times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonblueeyes 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 So just exectly how long is the bridge percussion music. Right from the moment Mola Ram say "Welcome" to the moment indy cuts the bridge I'd say it's only about 90 seconds of music. Judging by the official track times I'd guess that it could very well be included. Unless I missed a post declaring for certain that it is NOT on the CD.
