Don't you just hate em ? The NO!!!! votes, they can be the basis if a true and heavy depression

Anyways I had a 50/50 vote on an SRP update one yes and one no with the explanation that he had found it cheaper somewhere else. My notes only said srp checked at www.dvdhuset.no.

When I saw the no vote I first got a little angry because its quite clear that the no voter do not understand What SRP really are. So i edited my notes And explained to the No voter what it was and why the SRP was so high(the film in question was released in 2004). And i asked for a translation on thet field at the same time bekause to a Norwegian SRP does not mean anything.
For some reason I have noticed that many Nor relases get the price they payed in that field.

Anyway to cut a long story short The contribution got approved And I was truly amazed as the vote was 50/50. It's quite clear that if you explain even further after a no vote Ken and Gerri will take that into consideration. It pleased me, and I just had to chear it with you.

To Norwegians: SRP is the same as Veiledende pris. Its the price that the distributor say that its worth. It is often sold for less. The reason I kindof are stuck on this issue is that I work as an insurance agent and i recommend DVDP to customers with many DVD's and if the collection gets stolen they wil get the SRP price as long as they can 1. name the title and 2 document the price at releasedate(print a report in DVDP). Wich the distributor can confirm for us. However if they can't name the title and come up with the srp they will only get aroun 140 kr per title assuming the insured get the correct number of titles on the damagereport. The difference between the two payouts is that with option 1 you get the dvd collection back without compromise but with the second option you get 140 per movie, that includes boxsets, imported titles, criterion and so on. Wich means thet you collection most likely are quite a bit smaller after you buy it again.

Anyways I just wanted to spread some sunshine hehehehehe

SRP
Use the SRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) at the time of the DVD’s original release using the currency type matching the locality of the DVD. Do not change the SRP in DVD Profiler to reflect reductions in SRP that distributors make in continually over time following release. Ensure the currency type matches the locality of the DVD. Do not make contributions with changes of a few cents/pence to the SRP.

Yes the problem originates in the simple fact that its a short and its kinda difficult to be shure about what this is in anotherlanguage. therefore i bet that most understand it has something to do with price because of the currency selection and they just simply use the discount price they payed for it.

I must admit I too did this before I understood it. And even then after i got it I still neded to confirm this with a user here.


In norwegian this field should be translated to : Veil.pris or Veiledende pris to make shure that the misunderstandings will go down.
