Can't believe how quickly the ES exclusives have sold out! I would've loved the Jack Reacher one, but I refuse to pay £27 for a BD that'll be sub £8 soon in regular amaray just because its a steelbook regardless of the print run. If Play/Zavvi were and can knock these out at £14.99 a pop why can't ES?

Stop being a negative nelly! If you've got nothing good to say, don't say anything!

:p
 
Probably because you're not allowed to list pre-orders if the release date is more than 30 days away.
 
Have people really bought a dozen copies? Why? Will they really bet more than £27 second hand even though there are a lot of copies of this? (2000)

No one really knows, 2000 isn't a lot when you consider how many steelbook collectors there are out there worldwide. At this forum we are lucky enough to have helpful members who run GB's for non UK members who can't order it themselves. I'm sure there were a lot of other people from outside the UK though who would like to order this but have been unable too. So with a low print run and possible high demand there is potential for prices to rise as there is with all limited print runs.
 
Eventually all UK Steelbooks with a limited print run will end up being worth more than they cost, it's inevitable. It's just a matter of time. We are already starting to see it with many of the former Play.com exclusives.
 
I managed to bag 4 copies of this steelbook. 1 for me to open and enjoy, 1 to host on this very site as a freebie giveaway, and 2 copies for BD members who missed out or couldn't order (will be sold at sale price plus postage). :thumbs:

How long did it really take to sell out,because it was sold in 2 stages of 1000 copies each,so if we don't count the transition in the middle where there wernt any,it must be about 5 hours!!!!

Do we think that there are collectors out there that still have no idea that this steelbook has been and gone already?
 
more Countries wil get this artwork.... that i know.

I've seen amazon Germany have it and if I took a punt then perhaps amazon Japan as they have same H&G artwork as UK.

Will all the steelbook have the same finish or will a certain country get a "better" finish? I would say all will have same steelbook and j cards & stickers will be different but its worth an ask ;)
 
A very nice steelbook, and in the world of steelbooks 2,000 is an extremely small run so I see this selling for £70+ easily on ebay in a couple of months.
