my first steelbook is Godfather coppola restoration dvd from amazon uk around mid 2008. but i'm not consider myself as a collector back then. and then my first Blu-ray steelbook is Scott Pilgrim from uk, and i'm interested in this beauty after that
I've had 2 SB for a few months now, but I guess I've officially started collecting within the past month. I hate duplicates though, so any title i have that is regular I'll look to trade if I end up getting a SB of it (depending on the edition).
First SB I bought was French Pulp Fiction in '09 because I was looking for title on Blu-ray & there was no US BD version. Had to convert my Oppo BD-83 to play other regions. Didn't know it came in steel case, really liked the construction & was hooked.
Just under a year i think, but I've probably tripled my collection in the last few months and probably about to double that in the next couple of months
I cant stop it on my own.. I do get weird withdrawals if I stopped. My sickness is worse because I have OCD and I have tendency to double, triple and sometimes buying gazillions of duplicate.
And this sickness I have is spanning 6yrs and still counting
