Holy shit. Roaringly hot deal. I got free shipping as well to the US.

If the conversion rate holds, under $20 USD w/ shipping ($19.90)

Thank you Shaun!

No free shipping to US now, they must have fixed it. Shipping shows about $10.

In order to get the free shipping with Zavvi you have to place the item in the basket BEFORE you register as a new customer at checkout. That way the shipping costs stay at zero. Anyway it's sold out now but just for those who wish to make future orders!!

Ah... Well, that's certainly an oversight on their part.

But so long as they don't squeeze in a shipping charge between now and the time they charge the order, I'll be happy.

Looks like Zavvi overestimated demand!
Seems some people who managed to get an order in are having them cancelled already.
Wait and see how this pans out but personally i'm not overly optimistic here.

Just as an fyi, Amazon.ca has this back at $29.95, along with Star Trek TOS for 55. This is close to the same deal of a few months back...

Just be mindful that shipping from Amazon.ca on either set is around $10.

I got an email with this nonsense from Zavvi:

"This was an exclusive offer with limited availability. Unfortunately these
quantities were exhausted whilst you were placing your order and the
product is now deleted by supplier."

Has anybody gotten shipment confirmation?

Chris
