Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (Blu-ray SteelBook) [UK]

I get you now, I misunderstood, I thought you meant that the studio for example said to Zavvi that they MUST sell this at £21.99, which I thought sounded strange. In the business I'm in, which granted is a totally different industry, we have the same structure, like a lot of businesses we get certain discounts on products of which obviously dictates to how much we can sell for, of which is totally our choice, but if a competitor gets a better discount form the supplier, they can sell it for a bit less as they have the better buying power and can shift more product. With that in mind, you can see this happens with steelbooks also, Zavvi sell X at pre order whilst Amazon can sell it at higher or lower than X dependent on their terms with the supplier, which is really what I was getting at originally, apologies I have had a bit to drink!
And they are now live as we speak at 6am in the morning. Is that the earliest they have ever went live?
I thought someone else would have these cheaper than Zavvi. Am I being a tight arse, am I only one still finds these to be too expensive?

£113.94 if all bought individually from Amazon which is currently the cheapest price.
Zavvi sell all 6 for £129.99 but with a 10% discount (code: VB10OFF) this brings it down to £116.99 BUT read the small print, there is a £6 non refundable deposit when ordering the 6 bundle from Zavvi

That's only if you take the option of ordering the free Dredd Badge which you must add to the cart if you want it
If you don't add to the cart the Dredd Badge you wont have any £6.00 Deposit to pay
Yes that's true however ordering individually from Zavvi is even more expensive which seems rather silly when Amazon is offering the best price.
What has A Dredd Bage got to do with Star Wars ? .
I'm in the Dredd camp and he was never in Star Wars . Sure that the Star Wars bunch where NEVER mentioned in AD 2000 .
Do I have Star Wars ? NO
Do I want Star Wars ? NO
For those that do I hope they are everything you wish for

Great that Amazon have them now, as Amazon are much easier to deal with and their prices often drop a lil here and there.
When I saw the "deal", I thought exactly the same. Seems like they're clutching at straws offering random bits of non-related memorabilia "free"....What has A Dredd Bage got to do with Star Wars ? .

Already cheaper on Amazon £113.94 at the moment, good to see a none Zavvi exclusive, I'll take Amazon over any of the others, better customer service.

Completely agree. Its even stranger when the badges advertised with the Dredd Steelbook haven't even been dispatched yet!
I similarly have no interest in Star Wars, although I have the feeling these will be valuable collectors pieces in a few years.
But £110+ is too much of a gamble if I just plan on keeping them sealed and selling them on. Especially as (and I could be wrong here) there has been no mention of actual print runs.
