Across the pond, Amazon is selling for GBP 56.52 with free shipping to India. Have always got the BDs delivered without any issues from UK. Another option may be??

I ordered LOTR along with SUCKER PUNCH, so together they charged $102 which inlcudes $9 sales tax

The only issue of using Aramex S&S with Amazon is multiple shipments. Amazon may split the whole order into multiple shipments. Aramex S&S does not consolidate shipments. Aramex charges $18 per kg (minimum charge). Hence if there is an order of, say, 8 BDs and in total weighing less that 1 kg, then the shipping will be $18 for singular shipment, $36 for two shipments, $54 for three and so on.

So be carefull with this.

Yep, this is a nice point to consider while ordering in AMZ and shipping thru S&S

The US version offers a digital copy. Which is a blessing!!

But we have the option to choose Combine all items in order in one shipment isn't it? Normally this splitting scenario will happen when some items are not in stock or ordered from different 3rd party sellers. As long as we choose items in Stock and avoid 3rd party sellers we are good to go.

But as per bluray.com it is said, digital copy needs to be downloaded from net...
May be they are wrong....

Please read Digital copy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baiju, are you trying to correct or what is it?

I am just quoting whatever is given in blu ray.com

The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy Blu-ray: Extended Editions

"
Discs
50GB Blu-ray Disc
Fifteen-disc set (6 BDs, 9 DVDs)
Digital copy (as download)
BD-Live "

and

"The box opens to reveal a handsome map of Middle-earth, three individual standard-sized Blu-ray cases, and authorization codes for downloading a digital copy of the extended cut of each film (offer expires in June of 2012)"

I could not find out where it is given that digital copy is included with the movies so that you don't have to download from net. Please let me know if you know where it is given..

 

[baijuxavior]

I think you will need to download the digital copies using authorization codes.

 

[sukhas19]

I think you will need to download the digital copies using authorization codes.

Yes that's what i said earlier.. My only question here is to people who has bought it from US, is the digital copies are included or we need to download it from net...that's all.......

Correct. And Amazon will try to maintain one shipment. Having one shipment reduces their cost as well - especially in case of free shipping. But that is in no way guaranteed.

There are some cases when we won't be able to combine shipments. For instance:

• Orders that can't be shipped from the same fulfillment centre to meet your promised delivery date.
• Orders shipping from different fulfillment centres.
• Orders being shipped to different addresses.
• Orders being shipped to an international shipping address.
• Orders marked as gifts.

Recently WB stopped giving the Digital Copy in DVD. Instead we will be provided with Auth. Codes to download from iTunes. This practice I am seeing from Inception same is the case with LOTR.

True indeed.. just checked and the price has plummeted to 44.99 inc VAT. Very attractive at this price and tempted to get one.. but i'll just for another week to see if there's another price drop..of course if you had ordered at the higher price earlier, you will get the difference as a refund.

 

[skdMrk]

Damn! so the price is now 37.49 after deducting VAT! So tempted!
