Former Play Exclusive Universal Horizontal SteelBooks at other retailers

[digitalbabe]

FYI & thanks Pieter V for reporting.

Available now at other retailers who can shift any stock likely due to Play's transition.

Amazon UK

Sainsbury's

And possibly others....

I've got a headache with all these steels that looked sold out on Play.com and are now listed on Amazon.

Bought a couple of hori's from Ebay thinking they were sold out (not listed on HMV before it went down). Just assumed that these were actually sold out.

Also is Bourne sold out or not? A few people ordered this from Sainsburys a few weeks back only to have their orders cancelled yet it's re-appreared on Sainsbury's and now Amazon.

Some clarification would be really appreciated as collectors like me are extremely confused with some of these.

Ordered me Incredible hulk from play.com, cant wait to get it

looks like Hot Fuzz might be staying as a Play exclusive. Are there any other horizontals that aren't listed on Amazon or Sainsbury?

Hot Fuzz is on Sainsburys

I suppose if Amazon does well in shifting the stock, maybe they'll consider producing/selling their own exclusive steelbooks?

This was my thought. If they see how successful these were as Play exclusives, maybe they'll want a bit of that heat themselves..

panic buying for me too on these...with the help of our Ninja in the UK...kudos!
The Thing and Children of Men for me...if other retailers are getting them then it will be great news. Unless Play opens a store in Canada... ;-)

I need to get a few of those as I only have one Horizontal the Psycho german edition.

The Bourne Trilogy is now in HMV stores! £24 though! I'm surprised this has been given to HMV under the circumstances???

This is good news!

Finally, people in North America can buy few Play.com exclusives without going through a third-party. I'll be ordering few of these steelbooks in the coming days.

absolutely ridiculous!!
all amazon are doing is selling what were originally play.com exclusives at vastly inflated prices!!
and so the rot begins to set in here in the uk as amazon and zavvi take advantage and try to fleece us all with way over the top prices, seven psychopaths being a prime example of this!!

 

[Drum18]

Will add Amazon links into individual release threads.
