Copies going on eBay for about £10-15...I just got one for £13! Looking forward to it, been eyeing up different editions to upgrade from my DVD and this looks great.

edit:
I managed to get one on ebay for £13.00 (inc. postage). Not a single imperfection on it. The seller still has like 2 more of the same item left. I thought the price would be much higher considering that this steelbook sold out fast! Love the steelbook it really compliments the film!

just bought it off ebay this seller as well can't wait to get my hands on it :oohyeah:

Yeah I was watching it for the last couple of weeks but saw a load of auction listings of sealed copies so had my try at bidding on a few but after a couple ended at over £13 I just did Buy It Now with that seller - left it til the very last minute but snagged their last one it seems! Your comments seem encouraging, now I'm excited for it to arrive! Also found out today that Eureka are replacing my damaged Touch of Evil steelbook so I'm definitely a happy bunny!

I`m really surprised how unpopular this release is. Not only is it one of the best Steelbooks made (I think) it`s also a terrofic Movie. Maybe not enough people know about it yet or don`t want to try a foreign Movie.

It's not unpopular - it's just that everyone that wants it already owns it (and probably owned more than one copy). It's bombing because it was suggested to be 'the next valuable release', same with Oldboy and Lawless.
 
Just picked this up for £13 with postage from ebay too, surprised at how cheap its selling for to say how great a film it is!
 
I watched this for the first time last night - wasnt overly impressed and dont understand the hype - each to their own of course! i was expecting over the top blood and gore (im not a fan of that anyway) but even the directors cut is quite tame. I had about 4 or 5 of these steels to try and get a mint one and never managed it. Shame as its a cracker, and the one i have now isnt too bad

Preferred the Hunger Games myself :p
 
The Steelbook itself is a beauty. All glossy, with an awesome debossing on the front, 3 Discs and a Booklet. The movie is one of the bests of all time.
So, pay around £15 it's a very good price.

One of my favourites of the collection. :drool:
 
Cheers, yeah the red looks great just a shame it doesn't when in hand, but when I took the photos out back in the sun it looked great.

Yeah it doesn't look as vivid as that in hand, I thought you might have boosted the contrast on your pics but the sun did that for you!:D
 
this is still my favorite steel and also one of the best movies ever. quentin tarantino wish he made this :D
