We are all* potential resellers.
* Aside from the 5 or 6 ninjas that might claim they will forever be buried with their collection when the time comes.
I think there is a pretty lage fraction of people for whom the value or the potential added value of a Steelbook is a factor in collecting and I think that's totally fine. As soon as it becomes the deciding factor though and when you "invest" more money than you can afford, then the dynamic changes and you become bitter and agitated when rerelases happen or your precious grails lose in value for other reasons (better releases of the same movie, as seen with Blade Runner Manta replacing the HDzeta one as the most expensive BR release).
I don't eally like the fingerpointing though and these moral arbiters of how people should collect steelbooks and what is acceptable and what not is unnecessary. I still smile when looking at my old zavvi orders and see how I bought Jackie Brown for 6,96€ or Sixth Sense for 8€ shipped and now these are worth 10 times that, but that doesn't mean I'm selling it for that or that I would kill myself if they rereleased an identical edition somewhere else. It would just be cooler if they relreased a new and potentially superior one...
I would really stay away from these nihilistic "I know the future and everything will be worthless soon anyway" statements. Maybe they will, maybe they won't, but I'm collecting steelbooks for over 10 years now and most stuff that was expensive 10 years ago is still pretty expensive
If there were 5 of each Picassos they wouldn't be worth near as much as they are. So good try, but point for the other team lol
Oh and I forgot to mention, I hope someday soon your entire collections get reprinted.
Don't disagree and with limited runs and numbered editions then certainly then it's a consideration and reason to be annoyed about a reprint.
But in my opinion not with this. People that bought and it went up in value got lucky. A reprint for a retail wide non limited steelbook. Especially if its actually in a different country. Non issue for me.
(And yes I own it. And yes I paid retail. So there's no sour grapes or ulterior motive to my opinion)
Except diehard collectors, we all someday sing the same song...
I am selling

Amazon product
It's the Polish release. But at £54 it is by far and away the cheapest I have ever seen one out side of release. Two left if anyone needs.
Edit: it seems I cant post links. It is on amazon EU. Should be able to find it.

Odd, I didn't actually think it was released in Poland. The amazon uk listing stemmed back to an import on amazon Germany, that originated from amazon Italy. So I'd assumed the Italian release.. . It was about £45 shipped from amazon Italy an hour ago, ordered myself. All sold out now though.
it's a cool edition
when you dont have the manta lab and hdzeta release 
The description lists it as Polish with polish audio first and english. I dunno. But I ordered one anyway.
Yeah i did see that after. Odd. Doesn't matter really, front and spine will be in English, slip rear text will be foreign either way.
Amazon EU. Straight from the horses mouth. They had about 13 when I found it.
It's an amazon EU import listing, being sold through amazon UK. Amazon EU listings originate from European amazon sites where items are available for sale from amazon EU directly, or from sellers who use their delivery service. I just looked up the ASIN, it wasn't that difficult.
