And in a nutshell there are some of reasons I've put off ordering it at the current price.
Zavvi and Amazon.uk will not be getting this
The only way you can order from Amazon.uk will be from third party sellers
Release Date: 13th April 2015
UK Steelbook is only available from Arrow Films online Shop
http://www.arrowfilms.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/product&keyword=blood&product_id=527

Its also released in USA its a separate release
Release Date April 14, 2015

Arrow Video have set up distribution in North America and will release future releases in both UK and USA with some releases been UK only due to rights issues for some releases in USA

http://www.diabolikdvd.com/category/Blu~Ray/Arrow-US
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SA645J8/?tag=hidefnin-20

Amazon.com is USA and that's why its listed on the USA site

Arrow Video Releases in USA/UK will be Blu ray Region A/B and DVD will be Region 1/2 were releases titles are both been released UK/USA

So you will see future releases been available in UK and USA with some UK releases been available from all retailers in the UK and some been exclusive from Arrow Films in the UK and separately you will see some of the UK releases available in North America

Now Paul, you know me well enough to realize I don't stumble round in the dark - no matter what :)

I know it's an Arrow direct purchase exclusive - what I did mean, and perhaps should have been a little clearer, was that they are not owning up to the size of the print run - and if this is a UK and US release I suspect it will be substantially more than 4,000, in which case it will clearly NOT hold its value and I equally suspect we are very likely to see it hang around for some time, and the price plummet in order to clear stocks come the sales at Arrow, therefore it would be extremely foolish to spend £22-99 at this moment in time.
 
That looks really nice! Much as I love what Bava I've seen, I still can't warrant a blind buy at this price. Gonna LoveFilm it and get it further down the line - unless they release the print run and it's mega limited!
 
Update From Arrow Video Facebook
For members who ordered from Arrow Video online shops in USA
This Update is for the North America Release and does not affect the UK release

***BLOOD AND BLACK LACE US RELEASE UPDATE***
Unfortunately some rights issues have meant that we have to postpone our North American release of Blood and Black Lace. Pre-orders will be held while we try to resolve the issue but unfortunately no stock will be shipped in North America for the moment. We are working towards a resolution and hope you will bear with us.
As soon as we have more news on the situation we will post up another update so please stay tuned!

Note
UK release is unaffected and already has started shipping to customers.

If you want this its available to order from Arrow Video UK

I seen that yesterday
The listing on Zavvi though has a mistake its says Blu-ray/DVD

The Steelbook is a Blu-ray only

The Amaray version is Blu-ray and 2 DVD's

It's possible due to USA release been postponed that arrow video decided to make the Steelbook available to other retailers in the UK instead of been a arrow video exclusive in the UK

It's cheaper though to order direct with Arrow Films online shop

The Blu-ray is Region A and Region B

this looks like a stellar release, and considering it's an absolute giallo classic and a must-have for fans of italian movies like me, this steelbook will be one of my favorite releases of this year. but i have to wait for a price drop as it seems so certain...

You and me too mate.

I so wanted to pre-order; but it was way too expensive and my conscience just wouldn't allow it.
