[neverwhere]

It just seems too good to be true -- I don't know whether to be suspicious or jump for joy --
I discovered an online shop called CD Wow that offers unbelievable cheap prices and free delivery on cds and dvds, and it looks great. In fact, it looks like it might be full of miracles, as it somehow seems to be selling the Back to the Future dvd for immediate delivery, when it's not supposed to be released until december. And not just the first one, all 3 films in one box set, when there has been no indication that they will be sold that way. I honestly can't tell if this is a hoax and I should report them to the authorities for selling illegal dvds (or at least for false advertising) or if by some miracle they really have been able to get a Back to the Future box set. I know it says its Region 4 (Australia), but even it if was an Oz only release there should be news about it somewhere -- it hasn't even been mentioned on Aint-it-cool News for godsakes, so how can it be true! Gah. Well, Take a look and see for yourself, and tell me if you think it's all right and legal. I took the plunge and ordered a copy, and if it really does arrive in 5-7 days, we'll find out if its the real thing or not. Keep your fingers crossed for me, I've been desperate for this film for years. :)



I watched the saddest thing sunday night, a documentary about the Israli-Palestine conflict as seen through the eyes of children. At one point they interviewed this absolutely beautiful little boy, he couldn't have been more than ten years old, with large innocent eyes and the sweetest face. And he said: 'The more Jews we kill the fewer there will be. We should kill them all.' I just couldn't believe it. To hear such vehemence coming from that innocent face was just astonishing. I wept for the children of Israel and Palestine, knowing that they have such hatred in their hearts.


Well, that was depressing, wasn't it. :)


I started buying things on Ebay again. Sigh. Bad, bad Nevvie! I blame it all on shiveringjemmy and dinnee. :-P



Random thought of the day : Hedgehogs are cute. *giggles*

*giggles* sound like you think it's a bad thing!*grins* I'd never want to have a bad influence on you!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

You're already a bad influence on me. :-P

*tries to look innocent* did I? oww....

[storme]

Yeah, the Australian set came out already (I read this elsewhere only a few days ago). Plus, even the british version will come in a handy-dandy box set.

I've been buying stuff from eBay too. On the one hand, I'll soon have a HC Angels & Visitations of my own. On the other hand, I could spend *sooooo* much money. Bad, bad Storme.

Snakes are cuter than hedgehogs.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

YES!
I'm not crazy, and this is not a hoax! Woohoooooo! *bounces up and down excitedly*

Can you believe I bought the box set for just 18 quid! Yowzah!

Snakes are very cute, but hedgehogs are cuter.

[storme]

That's a pretty damned good price.

I am too lazy to region-unlock our DVD player, so I'll wait for the UK version and quietly envy you.

You wouldn't think hedgehogs are cuter than snakes if you'd seen the toy snake we bought on sunday.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Aww well toys don't really count, do they. :-P

And I shall wallow in your envy with glee. *giggles*

[storme]

You should see the snake before you say that.

It has beady button-like eyes.

Cute and creepy, at the same time!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Ooooh you could call it Other Mother. *giggles*

[wreibyn.livejournal.com]

OMG!! i had no idea they had that in a box set!! I am going to have to look for it here, but i will probably have to pay over $60 for it here!!! oh well.... let me know when you get it... :P

[chrystimd.livejournal.com]

So, which part of Back to the Future are you so enamored of? I'm just curious. Also, I wanted to say hi.

Hi!

Love,
C

*snuggles Chrystilove* Missssss youuuuuuuuu :))

I like the first one best (of course!), and was only going to get the original on dvd, but how could I refuse all three when they're less than the price of just one dvd, PLUS I'm getting it 5 months before the official UK release date! GO ME! :D

[dinnee.livejournal.com]

Nevvles... Please come back....

[storme]

Okay, I caved. My envy got the better of me.

I ordered the box set when I noticed the movies play on region 2 DVDs anyway.

And of course, as we ordered that, we had to order a bunch of other stuff too. Online shopping is bad.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*chuckles*
I thought you might give in to the lure of the dvd...;-)

I saw lots of other things I wanted too, but I'm going to wait until I receive my BTTF set before ordering anything else, just in case this site really is too good to be true.

I picked up my pictures today, and there are some brilliant ones of us at the Neil signings! Woohoooooo!

[storme]

Yeah, we're a bit worried it might be dodgy, but well, we hope for the best.

Scan in the photos! Put them online! Or send them to me, and I'll put them online!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I'll scan them as soon as my scanner starts working -- its worked perfectly for a year and a half, and today it decides it's going to have an 'unrecoverable error'.
Sigh.

Could you host them for me if/when I do scan them?

[storme]

Sure. I'm already hosting cherubien's signing photos, and I can easily stick your photos up there too. Then I get to drool at them from localhost. Bwahaha.
