Man, how can you see that SKU in the pic? It's so small I can't really make it out.

Haha! The iPad 3 is awesome. I pulled up the picture on my iPad 3 and zoomed it in and sure enough it's the same SKU. Cool beans, I'm ordering it now. I think I'll get it shipped to store so I can pick it up on release day instead of waiting for it in the mail. Thanks guys.

thats what I did. I will go around noon to pick it up but luckily I live in an area where they don't really care for these exclusives so its usually available!

But what if you get the Amaray version? Theres no way of knowing which version the employees will choose the Amaray or the Steelbook, since they are the same sku

so only 3D version in the steel???

my local BB says they have 120 copies of the 3d version, but he couldn't tell me how many of those were steels

The 3D version comes with 2D and DVD. 3 discs

I just talked to a sales rep that went and looked at them and said the steelbook is the collectors edition and it is priced at $44.99. She could not give me a SKU number but did say that to call on the day of release and they will hold one for me.

 

[blumaster]

$44.99!?!?!

No thank you.

 

[mllNY]

can't be this one its marked as underworls/underworld evolution and priced at 44.99 - 5102311

 

[Lone Crusader]

Order cancelled.

 

[mllNY]

Order cancelled.

I would not have done that. I would at least wait and see. Worst case scenario you return it...

also the sku in the avbove pic matches up

I'm just gonna add the 44.99 version in case and not pick up the non steelbook one

 

[Lone Crusader]

That's what the rep said. I wouldn't order from that link in the OP until we have definitive confirmation of which one were actually getting.

 

[blumaster]

could be possible the rep Acid talked to didn't know what a steelbook is and confused it for the box set. $44.99 seems pretty darn steep.

DO NOT Order this if you want a steelbook! I just talked to a sales rep that went and looked at them and said the steelbook is the collectors edition and it is priced at $44.99. She could not give me a SKU number but did say that to call on the day of release and they will hold one for me.

well,already pre-ordered and will know for sure tuesday but...they are the same sku.so thats what im bring for back up:snipe:
the price the rep saw is the regular price.thats no surprise for a 3D version.keep in mind,first week is always cheaper so that $44.99 is already not correct for the week.
