I wouldn't expect special things from Paramount tho, have they ever used deboss?
Mine is A bit Different. Probably us vs eu. I distinctly recall not buying the original DVD because I knew the better one was coming in a few months.Still got the dvd of the uncut version, think it mighta been an HMV exclusive in the U.K.? American edition was a digipack and included the soundtrack too.View attachment 505411
That’s the edition I used to have ....... my ex got custody of it when we separated thoughMine is A bit Different. Probably us vs eu. I distinctly recall not buying the original DVD because I knew the better one was coming in a few months.
The way Best Buy ships disks is ridiculous. They had GoT on sale, so I bought 2 (hoping one would be ok). It was in a box, but there was virtually no cushioning and it they slid all over the box. It’s almost like they want people to return them. What scares me is it looks like they’re going to quit carrying them in stores (along with virtually all physical media). All the studios should move their steelbooks to a company that ships in a box with some cushioning. FFS I do a better job shipping things than these guys.A few people have asked so I went ahead and sourced these from Target instead, as I'll get them shipped in a box.

I think only the premium ones, like BluFans, Manta Lab, etc.Which retailer ships SteelBooks in a box with cushioning?

Sometimes a while back, when Zoom.co.uk was Zoom (before its sale), also shipped to me several items at once in larger boxes with padding (sometimes not enough padding, but never had SteelBooks damages from Zoom, although not so many purchased).
If you order several movies and they ship together then you might get them in a box from Best Buy, Target, or Amazon, but even so you're lucky if you get any cushioning. I also think it's really luck of the draw. If you get the right person packaging the order - maybe someone who is also a collector - then they might give you a box (ie, whoever at Best Buy packed my Dirty Dancing steelbook put it in a really oversized size box surrounded by air pillows), but most of the time it's a bubble envelope or unpadded cardboard mailer.Which retailer ships SteelBooks in a box with cushioning?
