Yeah, I actually caved and ordered the Italian BD. I'm sure the Synapse will be definite, but I just can't justify the price difference.

I bit on this, but I'm not sure I would have if I had to pay international shipping charges on it.
I figure if a UHD does come out via Synapse (I'm not willing to blind buy the aforementioned European release) I can probably sell this for what I paid for it, or close to it, and justify the upgrade. I imagine despite the 6k print run and high price tag that this one will sell out reasonably quickly.Rock! Shock! Pop!

A single Blu-ray (or cassette or cd) is $13.50-13.75 First Class International Airmail. That's up to 8 oz's & over that, it jumps to (around) $20 or more with nothing in between. With the weight of the steel book & extra packaging, the price looks about right. That's not counting the % they may add in for PayPal fee's.
I'm going to wait a few weeks before I order. If I miss it, oh well. Gotta buy new vehicle tires this week. Ugh.

Diabolik are probably using a tracked service? I can't recall if I've had to sign for their packages in the past, but I believe so, and that's going to bump up the price quite a bit. Maybe the eBay seller is using reduced delivery fees as a way to get more international customers? $5 does sound very low. A regular untracked letter from Sweden to the US, costs 56 SEK (about $7) up to 250 g and 80 SEK ($10) up to 500 g. Don't know how much a DVD weighs, but not more that half a kilo for sure.
EDIT:
A registered letter up to 500 g does cost around $20, so we probably have about the same rates as the US.Last edited by enandalusiskhund; 08-29-2017, 05:16 AM.

There's no way a package can be mailed overseas from the U.S. for $5.99 or $4.99 (whatever it was). Like I said, for up to 8 oz.'s, it's $13.50 to most of Europe. It's $13.75 to Australia, Japan; not sure that extra distance to Northern Europe would be a quarter more (can't remember without digging through receipts). I mail LPs, cd's, & cassettes to Europe on a frequent basis so I'm dealing with packages that would be close in weight to bd/dvds.
DiabolikDVD may use International Priority b/c they can use the free envelopes. It's more than First Class International.

I remember when Xploitedcinema was still around 10 years ago or maybe 9, Diabolik's prices were much higher while Tony of Xploited offered much more affordable prices. Guess Jesse and co like to charge as much as possible.
Is there anyone else in the U.S. selling Euro genre releases, books, etc.?
