Buying Treasures from Play.com...

Do they come in the tins?

[ichabod]

They should. If the picture has a tin they should come with one. Although I've never seen the Treasures available without tins!

Yeh i've been looking at them and i really want to get them.....but nooooooooo just think of the money i could save instead.

So would this one come with the tin: http://www.play.com/play247.asp?page=ti ... &p=57&g=72 since it doesnt show the tin in the pic but then this one does: http://www.play.com/play247.asp?page=ti ... &p=57&g=72

What?

[ichabod]

What?

It's just I've lost count of the amount of Disney films you don't like, don't think you'd like, don't want to buy, don't want to see, and now you pass up the offer to buy film and Disney history because you want to save money!

If I may paraphrase the immortal words of comic book guy, "Worst Disney Fan Ever!"

[Andy]

Oh ok
Sorry if you feel that way about me and maybe others do, i suppose that is the way i have come across eh? Anyway sorry if i have, i thought i was getting on well with people here but i think that must just be a one way thing.

I'm sorry if I upset you *Andy* I did not mean too, I really enjoy your posts and contributions to discussions. My comment was not intended to upset you or have a go at you, if anything maybe to make you laugh!

I just found it funny that someone who spends so much time on a Disney forum says stuff like that, that's all

Again, sorry if I offended you!

[Andy]

Its ok
Wonderlicous explained that you were only joking, and its not it offended me its just i thought i was beginning to get to know some of you - then i thought maybe not...

And maybe my first post in this forum wasnt worded how i wanted it to sound. I was saying how i really want them but then it would cost alot to have them so therefore i was sort of tryint to talk myself out of buying them, if that makes sense.

I have all the R1 Treasures and prefer them to the R2's.
I haven't paid much attention to the R2 Treasures but I heard that the tin was just a limited thing- sort of like some of the slipcovers though I'm not sure.
I saw Mickey Mouse In Living Color Volume 1 on ebay a while ago which had been described by the seller as 'the mega rare tin version- no longer available in the shops'.
I know that a lot of sellers say things like this just to scare the bidders into buying their item for fear that they might miss out so I don't know how accurate this description is.
I hardly buy dvd's off the high street these days so I don't know if they still come with the tins. Are the tins any different in size than R1 because my brother said that they looked bigger.

[ichabod]

The tins are bigger yes. Whereas the R1 tins are only slightly bigger than the DVD cases, the UK tins are lined with a cushioned fake velevt sort of thing with the DVD inside that, so the tin is about 1 inch bigger on every side of the DVD case. Also I don't believe the tins are limited at all I have never seen a Treasures DVD for sale without its tin and even the ones still in store today have their tins.

They sound more like the insides of coffins than dvd's!!!
