Black Rain (Blu-ray SteelBook) [Germany]

If you don't have any luck with the one you ordered you might want to try the sales thread here. A quick search shows another member in Canada had one for sale earlier this year here - his thread's not been updated in a while and although it's not mint you could ask for some pics before you commit. Good luck.

There is a used one on amazon that I tried to buy first but they don't ship to Canada.

So on ebay I put the used one for sale there in my cart. The price came up in Euros so I was trying to find what the cost was in Canadian but I ordered by mistake. I see from Paypal that I paid $41.36 Canadian and that includes shipping. I probably would have ordered it anyway. Shipping was only 2.99 Euros which is really low so I wonder if it may arrive in something similar to an A1 mailer.

Of course if it arrives damaged I'll just get a refund.

No worries.

I sort of got influenced by this old thread popping up again and bought the copy on amazon.de you were probably referring to (19,90€ + shipping) yesterday. It already arrived today in perfect packaging but still had a huge dent at the bottom. It's not super obvious and I guess I'll keep it anyway, but maybe you lucked out after all with the eBay copy :thumbs:

I'm sorry to hear about the dent in yours. Somehow I don't think mine will be in any better shape.
Probably the only way to get a decent copy of an 8 year old steelbook is by paying the price to get one from a collector.

But I don't need a copy of it that bad. lol.

So I placed the order for this on Sep. 27th. After waiting patiently for a long time I finally contacted them to let them know it hadn't arrived. I got the usual "please be patient" request. I contacted them a couple weeks after that. They said I would have to wait 30 business days from the day of shipment before I could get a refund. Finally last week they processed the refund for me.
It arrived today almost 2 months after I ordered it.

Here is a scanned image of it.

I really like it even with the printing on the back. Even though it's in German lol. I think the back of this steelbook looks better than any steelbooks that are blank or have very little art on the back. I don't know how to describe the surface. It doesn't have a finish it to it. It's basically like steel. It has that metal grain to it.

Here are a couple of photos taken under a light at different angles. I really like how the images shine at different depths.
The foreground in the first photo looks almost like a 3D effect. The second photo shows the shine of the background.

And now I can see why people open their steelbooks up. The awesome inside artwork!
