Well it looks like the Rarewaves / Amazon IT thing was legit! Got my first batch through today. Nisekoi and Elfen Lied were sourced else-ware but the other 4 sets were obtained at bargain prices :)

Fast shipping and no customs too. Looks like they were re-shipped from the UK...

Glad to hear it, my items haven't arrived yet (I hate being last in these sorts of situations, sigh).
 
Don't worry, I'm still waiting on my item too. The first day of the estimated delivery window is tomorrow and if people are getting theirs today (Smeelia mentioned receiving one of his orders too) I imagine it's probably ours will come tomorrow.

Weird thing was that everything I received (and as far as I can see others received) were larger box sets... It's as if they prioritised by parcel size... (I think you ordered a standard size BD of Elfen Lied?)

Yeah I got standard Blu-ray sets (Elfen Lied and Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar Part 2). Both should fit through the mail box unless the box is big.
 
Arrived today.

A seller on Amazon Italy had a bunch of pricing screw ups meaning people were getting stuff at ridiculously cheap prices. While not all orders were fulfilled, quite a few of them were. For example, I ordered the US Elfen Lied Blu Ray for about £10 including shipping when the cheapest price on Amazon right now is about £20.

I'm thinking I missed something. What is the Amazon.it thing you people speak of?

Yeah basically what Lemon said, I think msgeek is the one who benefitted the most from it... but I've seen his collection, he deserves it :p

Damn, I saved about 25 Euro on Elfen Lied. Kind of makes me feel bad, I only payed about a quarter of the asking price...

You have no reason to feel bad... Me on the other hand... I just made a spreadsheet... And if nothing else gets cancelled I saved approximately £770. :/

If I remember correctly Rarewaves are based in the UK. Anything you buy from the likes of importcd, allyourmusic etc use Rarewaves as their returns address so there wouldnt be any VAT fees or customs to deal with.
 
I've never had problems with supermart_usa. Never had values declared on the package either. Although someone in this forum from Belgium I think does get their packages stamped with value and intercepted by their customs. But I'd say if you are UK you are pretty safe with Supermart.

I did recall ordering Shana III Part 1 and Blood-C from them which cost about £60-ish (then again I used a £40 voucher) but got through without any issues.
 
The Majority of my outstanding stuff from the amazon.it incident arrived today. By my reckoning I should have another 12 to come.
