as some of you know, the ultimate collector's 5 DVD box with extensive documentation, (finally!) the original movie release, an unrated movie release, the director's cut, and the now-to-be-released ultimate cut is being published in early december. Research via Google showed me that apparently the box will feature English, German, Spanish and (I forgot) a fourth language all in one box version, so it makes no difference if oyu order it in Germany or Britain for example. What makes a difference is the price, however. German amazon sells it for 50 euros, all costs inclouded. Britsh Amazon will cost you, inclduing shipping, VAT, 24 pounds, that translates into (factor 1.43) around 34 euros, which saves you enough money to buy anothernew movie DVD for free, or two old movies for free.

Inside Britain you can currently order it with certain cost saving options currently active for only 14 pounds (=20 euros, that is not even the half of the German Amazon price)! So if you happen to know somebody there, and you will visit each other anyway soon, this is the best price you probably get - let him order it for you.

I preordered in Britain for that reason. with that additional 2-5 days in shipping time I can live, and easily so.
