Greetings:

Tried a variant, got declined, wept for hours. 

In my DVD/Blu-ray purchasing years, I've come across the a number of discs that have new (and signifcantly different) covers.  So, I figured the variant thing would be good for that.  ("Two or more releases of the same title with largely different cover images.")

The image covers I have can be found here

If you check the DB, there's a different cover.  So, am I missing the purpose of the variant?

(As an aside, if I purchase a DVD/Blu with a variant, will I be asked to which one I want to add to my collection?)

Gracias

That is definitely a valid variant. What were your contribution notes?

Open a support ticket from this link to inquire why your contribution was declined.  It could be as simple as a clerical error.  I had a variant declined too and the response was that it was a clerical error and they corrected it.

OK, so I just went back and checked ... The profile was "Accepted" and the images were "Declined".  I guess I must of missed that.  So, I did something right.  (I could have sworn everything was declined.)

I'm still anxious to see how this looks in the DB when all is said and done.

Thanks

When Invelos reversed the declination for my contribution only the profile shows as accepted but the images still showed as being declined.  I think this may be the way the software currently works because when I went to resubmit the images the same images showed up for the currently accepted images even though the contribution has yet to be released to the general public.

Just checked the database.  If you buy the Italian Job with a UPC of 097361-183145, you get to choose between two covers.

Awesome.  Wonder how many more of these I have.
