Nice pick-ups everyone!

Hello all. Just joined the forum and have been browsing this thread. Some fantastic collections throughout... kinda leaves my piddly little "collection" of 1 steelbook firmly in the shade!!

I only have The Wolfman in steelbook, and only because it looked rather nice and I thought it might be a decent movie... and it was in a 2 for £15 deal in my local HMV store. Turned out to be a rather disappointing film, and steelbook (sadly lacking any internal pics) but I must admit it sparked my interest in steels as they are a thing of beauty... so here I am, hoping to get on the road to some form of collection.

Welcome MrSharky

nice pick ups, and avatar for that mater. Lets hope they do a steel of MIB3 once its released.

 

[MrSharky]

Cheers, Shanester.

Why do I always seem to pick expensive hobbies?? First was Scuba Diving, then (and now still) photography and now it's the setting up of a Home Cinema and steelbooks are entering the fray! My Wife has been very understanding so far... just hope it continues!

Do many on here get multiple copies of steels, so they can keep one mint and sealed and actually watch the other? I can't imagine buying a film and keeping it sealed!

 

[Wreck]

There's a lot of steels on amazon.de for 9,97 right now .... might be a good start for you.

No, we do crazier stuff like triple/quadruple dipping on same movie.

Not many buy the same steel to watch and keep sealed. In cases like that, folks will keep sealed and just buy the cheap plastic one ;p There's a higher resale value for those that are sealed ... so I think many like to keep that option open.

D'oh.. seems obvious now.. why pay premium more than once for the actual film!?!

Is resale/ trade value vastly higher for sealed steels then... I guess it will be higher as they are virginal steels, but is there a huge difference?

I've been at it for less than a month and I'm closing in on 50 steels. Be careful. It can get out of hand quickly! Haha

And welcome. I've found it's best to make friends from different countries to help source you the steels that you can't get. For that and because most people here you can trust to package steelbooks the right way! Nice and secure

Oh I see you you're not after the friendship just the steelbooks

expandables, funny! haha but yeah i have a copy coming too can't wait!

 

[MrSharky]

Sadly I only have the 1 steelbook.. so I guess that it'd also be the last one I bought!

The Wolfman. Not a great film, even worse steelbook with no internal artwork at all... still, nice look and feel and external artwork.
