Huh.
Never even thought of that. Does Amazon price match?

And shut that down pretty quick:

About Price Matching
Amazon.com consistently works toward maintaining competitive prices on everything we carry.
Amazon.com doesn't offer price matching.

Will Amazon not price match Shout Factory?

No they don't price match with Shout Factory website
Amazon USA price match with Best Buy USA that how the prices have dropped with a lot of releases.

This why a lot of recent scream factory releases prices not dropped on Amazon USA as Best Buy not had some of these releases to sell

This will have to show up on Best Buy USA for Amazon to drop the price

Amazon may drop the price in the new year if they not sold a lot of stock but you are unlikely to see price drop before this happens unless best buy USA list for sale soon at lower price

And shut that down pretty quick:

Price drops on Amazon USA happen when Best Buy USA are selling cheaper

Amazon UK for example drop prices when HMV UK are selling cheaper

They watch their main competitor for prices on products

They won't offer you price match but they monitor Best Buy for their prices to get customers orders

Very Glossy, no bossing effects. Goes GREAT with the first movie steelbook. You also want to be aware that they put a whole line of gum tac the length of the J-Card on the back for those that don't open there's.

So that's what there calling it nowadays. LMAO!

"Limited to 10,000" Considering I still see the first one hanging around Best Buy, I doubt this one is gonna sell out. So I'm gonna wait for a price drop.

They did the same with Dances With Wolves and Streets Of Fire. You can feel it immediately when you pick up a copy.
Kind of like somebody wallpapered over a light switch.

Exactly right. So for those that have all your steelbooks lined up next to each other sandwiched together you might want to reconsider with the Shout and Scream Factory steelbooks.

Shout Factory are now inforcing minimun advertised price on some releases with on-line retailers
If a retailer lists at cheaper price they are been told by the supplier they wont be supplied shout releases

This is the main reason why prices on a lot of recent shout releases not dropping in price and reason why some releases price has increased from a previous listed lower price
