Page 1 of 2001: A Space Odyssey (Special Edition) with Limited Edition Art Cards £9.98 at Amazon

Digitally re-mastered, and with documentories and featurettes on the second DVD, looks to be a bargain at £9.98 from Amazon.co.uk (ASIN: B000JJS982) !!


However, I`ve just received this DVD from Amazon, but the Art Cards were not included !

The wrapper of the DVD was still sealed, so it looks like a production problem.

On querying this with Amazon, they suggested that I return the DVD and they would then send me another copy.

When I asked what guarantee they could give that the replacement copy would actually have the Art Cards, they suggested that I return the DVD for a full refund !

So, has anyone else bought this DVD from Amazon.co.uk ?

Were the Art Cards included ?


PS Sorry for the crosspost in the DVDs & Films Forum - Mods, could you delete that one, please ?

Just craptacular....

Well - completely out of the blue - an envelope arrived today from Amazon.co.uk, with a compliments slip (but no explanation written on it) and with the Art Cards enclosed !

As it turns out, they`re not that spectacular - I assumed they`d be various `2001` images, but they`re just `front cover` artwork for several Stanley Kubrick films - But at least Amazon eventually supplied what I`d ordered !

Well ... not quite ... as there were TWO packs of cards enclosed !!

That mean you have a pack going spare? :)

No harm in asking...

This saga just gets sillier, as I`ve received this Email today:-

`Dear Amazon.co.uk Customer,

So, 4 days after receiving 2 packs of cards unexpectedly, they tell me I should receive a(nother ?) pack shortly !?!
