Hey folks! I'm just creating a placeholder for everyone right now, given that this release has NOT YET been confirmed by Best Buy.

But I wanted you all to have the ability to request this title, if it does end up coming to Best Buy (which is likely seeing Thor 2 & Cap 2).

PLEASE HOLD YOUR REQUESTS TO COMBINE, as there is no release date YET

Regular discussion thread is here

Requests are honored as first come, first serve (top down), in case there is a shortage of copies.

*******************************

Release day cost, now shown as $19.99 + sales tax + $3 group buy fee for the first item, $1 for the second + shipping.

Please note, that sometimes it's difficult to get Best Buy exclusives. I may enlist other members here to help to acquire your items. This could include postage to me as a smaller, but shared additional cost.

Paypal fees will be included in any invoice sent.

Limit will be two copies per member

Only mint / new copies will be passed on to members here.

Additionally - these steelbooks usually come wrapped in cardboard slips. I'll do my best to inspect them, but I cannot see underneath the cardboard.

Shipping options:

QUOTES are for 1 steelbook ONLY.

I will pack in the following manner - case will be bubble wrapped, in a heavier cardboard box.

Please note - with non-trackable shipping - you the buyer understand that I cannot verify it's delivery - as I leave the choice up to you, this is not my responsibility. Insurance can be purchased through a 3rd party if desired.

I will retain proof of shipping for each package.

All delivery times are ESTIMATES only. New quotes provided as necessary.

First Class International (Box) - with delivery confirm to most countries.

-delivery to most locations - 10 - 14 business days, but may take longer
France - $15.08
UK - $15.08
Canada -> $10.76

Insurance against loss or damage is $2 more up to $100 worth of coverage.

Invoices sent to all of those that requested 1 copy only and didn't have special requests (hold from another GB, etc)

I'll be invoicing the remainder hopefully tomorrow or at the latest Thursday.

Thanks everyone!

Payment done, thanks Andy! :thumbs:
 
If there are any left over, could I please be added. I went to pick up my copy today, and they f'n gave it to somebody. Got there at 7 PM. You know some of us have to work. So mad right now. Sigh... :(
 
I haven't received an invoice yet and I only requested 1 copy. Is this due to the copies Vlad is receiving? I thought you were able to get all but 2 requested? I'm not sure, particularly given I wasn't in the last 2 of the group buy. Don't mean to be a pain, just unsure based upon previous posts as to why I didn't receive the invoice and thought I'd ask. Thanks.

No extras, sorry.

As mentioned via PM - I got all but two, and the @vläd was gracious enough to offer his extra copy if they arrive safely. I've asked him to help you, as it's easier to ship within the USA, and he doesn't have to take on some of the complex situations that occur due to international shipping during the holidays.

Having said that, I had planned on getting all the copies I could in hand, for everyone on the list, and was going to visit multiple stores.

But when I came out of Walmart, after rangling with them about slips for 30 minutes, I had half an inch of ice on my car. The next closest Best Buy to me is over 45 minutes away - that's a one way drive.

There are some things that are not worth risking life and limb over.

Thanks for the message though. :)
 
Brutal, but thanks Andy

I got a few copies with spine slashes ( through the shrink wrap, on to the spine). These were done with a box cutter (by Best Buy), but are a thin white line on the spine of the steelbook.

If you or anyone else that did NOT get a steelbook yet is interested, please let me know and I'll try and help. First come, first serve.

Rather not return these to the store.

Thanks

I was going to open one of them. The only reason why I would take 2 is to cost average it down. No biggie.

I can send you the one, as long as it's for personal use (and shipping to the west coast would be more expensive for two).
