Has anyone seen this ?.
It contains Clerks, Mallrats, & Chasing Amy.
Dont know if these are the good versions or not but Chasing Amy is the Crit edition and the other 2 films have music videos and comentaries listed as extras, so Im assuming these are the best versions of the trilogy in 1 boxset.

BTW - The set seems to be a Canadian exclusive as no US stores seem to have the Trilogy listed.

Does anyone have some more solid details as this seems the best way to own the set if you havent already brought 1 from the trilogy.

Stunning price for the 3 - Chasing Amy has exactly the same description as the Criterion does so it must well be.

If I had more cash then I would already be ordering!! :(

Just found this pic in DVD Profiler:

Yeah thats what I thought.
I've just checked out the specs of the other films, & both Clerks & Mallrats have the same extra features as the collectors editions so it must be the best version of all 3 movies in one set.

Now, where can you buy from without getting stung by customs ?.

Done some more fishing and it seems the above pic was made by a fan to house the 3 Smith films.
The case is sold via secret stash so its very doubtfull that the trilogy being sold at dvdepot will have this case as its unofficial.

Both DV-Depot and DVDBoxoffice are very customs friendly.

This 3pack seems to be in response to the forthcoming pricecuts on the US discs (Clerks & Chasing Amy are dropping to a $20 RRP) and looks to be a great deal.

From what I remember, this box could be bought through viewaskew ages ago. It was just the box and went for around $45 !! without the dvd's. If this includes the discs then it's a good deal

Are you SURE this is the movies and not just the box you are buying?

If you look at Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash (http://store.yahoo.com/jsbstash/jertrilboxse.html) you will see the very same box for sale with the note:

REPEAT: This is the BOX ONLY! The Movies are NOT INCLUDED!!

It's $35 there!!!

I just don't want to see you get stung for a box only.

Because the same box does not come with the 3 pack from DV-Depot/ DVDBO - that is a custom made box

mallrats is the only one of the three Iv got so as its only £3.67 more to get this set than it costs to buy the other two, I may as well sell mallrats to buy this and save some money.

Anyone else interested in mallrats R1 ?

Will post in clasifieds as well
