I went to 3 Best Buys in DFW on Tuesday and 6 Best Buys here in Houston area today. EVERY ONE is sold out!

I have two in transit from my preorder. I hope they are mint and shipped in a box. My previous experiences with BB shipping have lowered my expectations...

UPDATE: my wife sent me this pic: cardboard envelope STUFFED into the mailbox. She said it was hard to pull out. (Giggety) I won't be home till tomorrow, so I won't know their condition until then.

I was in the parking lot at best buy 10 minutes before opening. The parking lot had maybe 5 cars in it. These 2 older ladies (70s atleast) got out of their car and went up to the door to wait. I was thinking no way they are trying to get a steelbook, so I stayed in my vehicle because it was freezing....how wrong I was. My store had 2 copies on the shelf! They got them both! About 10 of us were just standing around in shock. I can't believe I missed this one
@etsubeast I feel for ya buddy :(, but I'm glad you shared your fu**ing hilarious experience!!! :rofl: I haven't laughed this hard in a long time :hilarious:, easily one of my favorite messages! ;) Thanks for the EPIC laugh! :woot:
This is actually one of the funniest outcomes ever in steelbook hunting. It is comedy gold!!!
@blu-steel I completely agree! :thumbs: PURE COMEDY GOLD! :notworthy:
Hey. I sent my girlfriends in for me.
LMFAO!!! :rofl: :hilarious: You trained them well @Ricker! :emb: I bet your Girlfriends rolled up into the Best Buy parking lot like this! :cool: :ohno:
LOL!.jpg

Ready to kick some ass! :D
Probably 2 men dressed as old ladies.
Maybe it was @apsmith21 and @Wreck in disguise! :naughty: Wearing adult diapers and ALL! :woot: LOL! :p
 
I didn't do it because I never buy more than what I need plus thats also a good way to lose your shirt. What if you bought 10 and all of a sudden there is way more supply then your holding the bag on 10 movies your trying to get your money back on. Getting a second is a low risk low reward scenario, plus its always easy to just trade one extra or do a nice contest for it.
Or just keep the receipt & return it
 
Thanks! good to know. I did try to pull one of the corners, but I saw the shrink wrap stretching so didn't try any more. If I try again and pull it off based on your suggestion, can we trade if it doesn't work?:p

Dude, I remove the sticker before I even sign for them. How else can you check the actual condition?

Sometimes the shrink wrap will strech a bit but at least you can actually see the steel. What if there's a huge dent under the sticker.

Use a blow dryer to heat it up, and just peel it off starting from a corner. Simple.
 
Boy oh boy were we wrong lol
@NoDingsNoScratches ,
1) the value always starts high after release cuz people are panicking they didn't get theirs (always happens)
2) add Christmas on top, and people are double panicked. (And the scalpers know it)
3) if you don't need one now, or as a Christmas present- I stand on the statement that they will not be rare at all, and in fact will be plentiful in the New Year for sane prices after the scalps make their dough on the Christmas panic. (And if Santa is really nice- I hope scalpers are stuck with too many after all is said and done...and take a loss for buying a gazillion of them at cost and then having to flip below later!)

My opinion differs :)

After seeing the great quality of this edition and the RARE FRONT TITLE....mark my words this is gunna only go up and become more sought after. Collectors will NEED this to complete the trilogy.
Sealed its amazing. Opened its amazing. It's only going up sorry to bust up you theory of negativity bruh

Other sellers had the RARE title. (Amazon China, for example). No negativity, my man. It's all good. I hope all the hunters find their stuff and don't get ripped is all.:thumbs:
