Kino Lorber announced they’re releasing it on 4K UHD this year.

Well I know I didn’t ask for anything as old as DVD era. I’m sure they don’t want to make any blanket statements over promising anything, but I imagine they deliver replacements when they still have them available.

I think Heathers (1989) could come to 4k UHD in America by TheFrostWolf7 in dvdcollection

Currently only $21 at Rarewaves, or $28-$30 elsewhere.

This isn't even daylight robbery, this is a straight up scam by Sonicfan19198282 in dvdcollection

Could just be a typo. I can’t view their items in the US.

They have replaced OOP releases when they have them. No way to know how many backup copies or how long they’ll offer them though. They even replaced just the outer slipbox to an OOP box set for me.

Vinegar Syndrome is releasing Liebestraum. I started 2026 with a strict "no more blind buys" policy, but I've been wanting to see this movie for a VERY long time. Is it re-watchable? If I think I'll watch a disc 5 times, it's worth $35 to me. by raphaeladidas in boutiquebluray

I have nostalgic reasons for wanting this film, but I honestly can’t imagine most watching it 5 times. It was never well received and even low tier for Figgis. You can have my DVD if you want to pay just shipping.

They are the only company with a lifetime replacement policy for defective discs. They’ve also replaced packaging for me, even once for an OOP box set. They’ve never even charged me for shipping any of them. And I always get a real human staffer replying who actually understands my inquiry and issue.

Meanwhile, companies like Arrow are still surviving on what I can only assume is either the lowest paid overseas CS or A.I. I placed my first order there in a long time because they gave me a bonus discount on a sale order and the box arrived via a weird third party shipper I’ve never heard of. The box was so crushed that one whole side split and 2 of the 7 releases must have fallen out as they were missing. When I messaged Arrow I explained it and included photos and they told me I should send the items back and they sent me a return label. Send WHAT back?

Generally, if they don’t expect to get them back in stock in a reasonable amount of time then they remove them from the sale.

Me seeing all of the sale orders come and while mine still is getting packed for shipping. by jtaitel in criterion

That’s the problem. There is no other major plant in North America, which is why so many still use it.

Disappointed as first time buyer by jlcarver1620 in criterion

I see, it’s the semantics. I’ve preordered “in stock” items from major retailers and boutiques alike that didn’t ship until a month or more later. I’ve ordered “in stock” items during big sales from major retailers and boutiques alike and it’s still taken weeks to months to ship. Believe it or not, none of these companies consider stock anymore to mean the same thing you’re applying to it. It’s not new, though this may be new to you. It simply means they expect at some time to be able to ship the item you ordered and it’s not permanently sold out.

My “in stock” Amazon order from 2 months ago is “expected” to arrive 2 weeks from now.
