It's absolutely not fair on Best Buy to claim they are driving up demand and then charging more. They pretty much always offer a new release on sale the first week and then the price rises afterwards. And yes it's sold out again, so I wouldn't procrastinate; if you want one, and it comes back in stock, buy it.

Now price is $34.99, but out of stock. :wtf:
 
I wonder if Best Buy offers anything for sale for $0.01 so you can qualify for free shipping :)

I take back some of what I said about Best Buy though - I think they almost always discount a big new release title in the first week, but it looks like going from $19.99 to $29,99 wasn't enough for them! $34.99, just enough to keep it below the free shiping value. That's convenient.
 
They won't do that blu-steel because then they'd have to give you free shipping! Unless they were planning on offering an after Christmas free shipping offer of course...then all bets are off!

It says $34.99 online, but due to a christmas miracle, I was able to find one in store yesterday and it rang up to $29.99 + tax. So I guess you save $5 when you purchase this in store. I still don't know how I was able to still find a copy in store, but I am grateful that I did. Thank you based christmas gods and happy holidays my ninjas

Christmas miracle buddy, congrats and Merry Christmas
 
I picked this up on release day.

After some time has passed to reflect, I've come to the conclusion that this is one of my favorite steels.

PROS:
*The spine has a metallic flake

*This steel has a gloss finish

*Clean looking SteelBook

*Not many factory flaws

* Title on front

CONS:
*There is no spine title

*The interior art is very uninspired


Anything I forgot to add?
 
I think I have record when it comes to glue under the slip...they really went all in!

Seriuosly, Best Buy and their stupid glue man, I hate it. BB has the worst glue of any retailer! The glue was a huge pain in the ass to remove! Way too much freaking glue. Had to use a new microfiber towel with warm water...

One thing you forgot to add in the Cons is the Steelbook design itself. [emoji6]

The SteelBook itself is a con? LMAO

I know, but it's original. No other steelbook has that Walkman Design.

Can't believe this is still available. I was going to get ond for my brother for Christmas but it was sold put in store the first day by the time I got off work so I just got my lre ordered copy, then I got him something else instead.
 
My copy finally arrived today.

I however, seem to have a copy thats had a bad paint job as there is a white line (no scratch) on the front. Not a lot can be done about that though. Anyone else have something similar?

Everything else seems to be in order though.
