I have had this bd release for about 6 weeks or so, and wanted to note that it was originally only an HMV exclusive, but is now available to order through regular amazon.uk.
It is a locked to region B release unfortunately, but luckily for me that is of no concern, as I have a region free bd player now.
It is a glorious release for sure, and I highly recommend it.

I ordered ITV's blu-ray of The Red Shoes from Amazon UK 3 weeks ago, and it said 6-10 days delivery. It still hasn't been shipped. Now it's out of stock and only sold by sellers. It can't be out of print already, right? It came out just a few months ago.

No, it's not out of print. You can get it here and at just about any High Street retailer in the UK.

I'm in the US. The price and shipping fee at HMV make it too expensive for me. At Amazon UK the final price would be around US$23 whereas at HMV it would be well over 30. Why isn't it sold at Amazon UK anymore? Is it now an HMV exclusive like some other blu-rays? Also, none of the third-party sellers at Amazon UK ship overseas. I also asked Jon Mulvaney about a Criterion release and got no reply, so I guess there is nothing in the works, even though Janus did the restoration.

No reply from Mulvaney is more likely to mean there IS something in the works than not.

...and the Region B coding of the ITV box (since they don't usually region-code) suggests that someone else has the rights to Region A...

I'm not going to attempt to dig it up, but there was a post on Facebook about a month or two ago that went something like this:

Some guy: I bet the Blu-ray editions of Lola Montes and The Red Shoes are going to look great.

Criterion: They sure will!

Guys, there is no reason for speculation on this title. It is coming.
