Well this is a good thing, too bad my store already sent out gits vol. 2 (special edition, so I only have to worry about flipping mislabelled discs), but in any case it's still fairly annoying. Such a high-profile title and so far both of the volumes have had some kind of problem.

I hope Suncoast holds theirs, cause i don't wanna buy it if it is flawed,but it doesn't really matter to me though. But i kinda hope they do, but it's Suncoast we all know how they are.

No worries. Suncoast (and all of Musicland Group) recieved a memo last Friday about this issue. All copies are being returned and will be re-called and sold when the new copies are released.

The mess-up doesn't really bother me.. I could easily live with that mistake. Sure it sucks but in the long run its not that big a deal.. to me atleast. Unfortunatley all the stores around me are only carrying the normal edition and aren't putting out the special version.. and thats the one i want so i am forced to wait for the re-ship

I wonder I work at Circuit City (not in DVD department) and both us and Best Buy had standard edition but not SE. Best Buy I know was supposed to have the SE but didn't, so I guess most places held it.

Also I've got to agree, messing up 2 out of 2 is pretty bad. A little quality control would have solved this problem with ease.

So, did Bandai fix the glitch in Vol.1 yet? I still have to e-mail them to replace my OST, but if they've fixed that DTS glitch, maybe I can ask them to replace that too. Surprised

I picked up the Standard Edition at Best Buy and it's also mislabled. The Disc actually is actually the DTS disc of the episodes sans the DVD Extra content. Normally I'd be fine with DTS, but I paid for a DVD with extra content and it's just a pain to have to go back and get it exchanged.

Turns out that most of em have already been replaced, on the single-disc issue.

Which means the CD deluxe version won't be far behind.

Amazon sent out their preorders on Monday. The "problem" is minor IMO as long as I get both DVDs I don't really care.
