that applies to pretty much everything these days. Most all releases start high in second market and then drop slowly. There are exceptions like you said but if you wait long enough you can usually snag a copy of a title for 1.5-2x its "retail" price

It's all about the print run these days. To prove a point, Filmarena's Elektra which I have and cherish had a print run that was so low and considered to be a horrible movie cannot be touched by let's say their Ex Machina which was an amazing movie compared to Electra. A general rule of thumb : print run in the low hundreds vs one in the thousands is a no contest.
although I have a feeling that The Martian FAC might be an exception to the rule, but I hear you about Elektra...and AASB...those are the ones...
Like The Martian already on the bay for exaggerated prices... And they do not only sell one piece...
Exactly. Low print run = more demand, less supply. Even awful/average movies benefit from the low print run. Resellers make a much larger profit for these items while the company does not see any of the profit. It seems to me that HDZeta is just hurting themselves with these low print runs. Customers get angry at how hard it is to obtain the item and HDZeta makes less profit.
The print runs for almost all the Asian specialty retailers have gone up quite a bit in the last 12-18 months. Blufans had never heard of a 4k print run of any title before Frozen, NovaMedia with their 5k run of The Avengers. This a bit to high for me personally but it is what it is. I'm glad we have 1 company that regularly puts out low print runs. I missed The Martian but got a copy of Ex_Machina from HDzeta. I know I will miss a chunk of their releases but chasing and finding the ones I missed and wanted is part of the fun of collecting. I would be pretty bored if I never missed a release I want. The majority of releases from everywhere are 2K and above so its good to have a little variety. If everyone has it is that really a collectable? Last scalpers are part of any collectable business, I think there is waaay to much talk about it on the forums over and over ,
Let it go you will be much happier, if there were no scalpers then that would be a terrible sign for collectable Steelbooks and you would see less releases and interest because scalping is a product of a healthy hobby. Just economics kids, felt like a rant sorry for the length. Will probably get savaged but that's fine, bed time.

I agree with some/most of what you said. I don't think people are upset that there are scalpers, just that they have to pay scalpers prices. As an ebayer and collector I feel for people who miss out so I prefer to trade first. When I list a movie on eBay I do buy it now with a $20 above cost(for eBay fees and profit) , however I'd say 95% of the time they don't sell at which point I relist as an auction and most times I make more then what the buy it now was( don't know why that is but it is) but there are some times I loose money. I do think buying a movie for $60(shipping included) and then putting it on eBay with a $80 mark up is stupid( unless it's something like Thor or As Above So Below kinds of movies).
Just my thoughts
Some people just want an enjoyable version of a movie they love. I don't care if a lot of people have the same steelbook as I do. The "I have something you don't have" mentality is juvenile.
