Spoiler

- The steelbook illustration is by Krzysztof Domaradzki.
- The artwork for the slipbox was used previously for the Oldboy vinyl LP. It was co-ordinated by Nicolas Winding Refn, the director of Drive, and illustrated by Laurent Durieux. The director of Oldboy Park Chan-wook wanted one of our editions to feature this artwork so we reached out to Milan Records and illustrator Laurent Durieux. You'll be able to see more of the artwork since parts of the top and bottom were cropped out for the vinyl LP.



Old mock up

Hope that's an unsealed copy, pointless him signing the shrink-wrap, right?

Of course it is unsealed

Don't think anybody answered to : why did oldboy dissapeared from the PA website ?

same question and still no answer. this is the most mysterious thing. oldboy is a plain archive exclusive. why is all its listing info gone on PA website??

is this a game, like wondering why one was locked up for 15 years?

I just recently bought the Oldboy Plain Archive Exclusive Steelbook Full Slip Type B from Ebay. When looking at the Slipbox I noticed that some of the writing was a bit off like it was printed twice (See Pictures) and not that fully printed properly and was wondering whether this was a fake or if it was just a printer error. It came sealed with the Plain Archive Sticker on the back and I scrutinized the whole package and found it to be of superb quality i.e. the Booklet, Envelope and Steelbook so maybe it isn't a fake but just a printing error. Also when looking at certain angles on the Slipbox and by feel that the words are specially printed or embossed on so if it is a fake its really good.

Moved your post here for better visibility.

Errors in printing are not uncommon, such as misalignment etc... I didn’t buy this one so can’t share more but I’m sure the guys who do have it can confirm.

Hi @sulezraz you're okay its a legit copy. I got mine direct back in the day and its due to the finish and flocking on the lettering that in some light it looks spot on and sometimes looks misaligned. See pics below of my copy which is the same

i dont think a fake would make any sense from an economical perspective.. the cost of a high quality full slip would outweigh the profit, especially in this case where the edition is still available close to retail price

Kind of awkward to read something about a possible fake copy, since it was me who sold the item (for retail price!) .

Anyway, no need for any doubts, I bought it straight from Plain Archive

Hey everyone...definitely late on this release but does anyone have any of this release to sell? Or know where I can find copies other then eBay? Thx.

 

[BluSteel2012]

Maybe contact Plain Archive? I know they are sitting on some orders because they are still not back to full international shipping. Maybe there's been a few cancellations....?

Worth a try.

How do you mean? Site says sold out. You mean from an email customer service standpoint?

 

[Alexwill03]

Closer to $100 or over, good amount of markup, unless you're seeing different?

 

[howarmat]

Seller have to cover about $15-17 in ebay fees and well its a sold out release from 5 years ago. Seems fair.

You seem new to the game. No offense.

 

[Mokum]

I don't think he'll like my offer of 100€ shipped to the US (30€ being shipping alone)
