This is a bit of a farce really. Would many be ordering this if it were a Zavvi exclusive and limited to 4,000? Probably not. I think ES need to start letting us know in advance when it will be available. It makes no difference to their sales, but it would leave people a lot happier.

They did - there's a quote from Luke there earlier in this thread saying they would be up today.

TROPHY UNLOCKED - Purchase The Entertainment Store 3rd Release " G.I. Joe Retaliation Steelbook"

Whoo hoo got one too

With releases like this, it's always possible that someone could do a GB but allow everyone from all countries to order from, that way people away who can't get to a PC or mobile device for whatever reason can order at a more convenient time, but even then there will always be people who can't order at that time, and that is life ! Rare means hard to possess and that's exactly what a great deal of collectors want, if they miss one, then they'll either use the sale/trade of one of the rare steelbook they were lucky enough to get to finance getting one that they missed. That's what it's all about for many and that's how it will always be.

Too much complaining on here, I can understand complaints for many things but not because something is selling too quickly ?? If it does go up on secondary market then it will be the price it's worth i.e. it could be a Battle Royal which means you will pay less than when it was available on Play or you will pay more for it i.e. JR etc. Either way eventually after time you will pay what it's worth. Some people are just trying to fight logic on here and it doesn't make sense ??

By the way numbers down to 668 already so please for all those who recently missed out, get it now !

Yes but it needs to be more specific. If it was available for a couple of days it would be fine but as it is if you're not online when it is made available you has little chance of securing a copy.

Managed to get one thanks for the advice about checking the actual storefront rather than the listing

I've spoken with another member here, and BEYOND the 100x copies that have been secured for international members (if there isn't enough interest, I believe one will be moved to include UK folks), I think we might get another 20x copies for EU members only.

So, the forum is trying to help on some different levels, and I'll coordinate where possible, but a lot of this is on ES store - it's up to them to perhaps stagger their release or do something different in the ordering process to allow more people, not on the internet at certain points to order their copy.

I think in general, that 3 members here are willing to take time out of their busy schedules to order, inspect and repack & secure up to 120+ copies says a lot about the general community spirit.

Go HDN team, and thanks to the members helping with GBs.

Newbie question...you can't order if you're in the USA?

 

[apsmith21]

I will continue to delete any further posts about resale in this thread, let's not post about secondary market prices, etc.

Thanks

Correct, but you can visit a group buy and get your copy that way.

Sproutyrouty's GB is linked in the OP.
