SunnyX hopefully they resolve it soon. I am concerned about my orders now since they get shipped to the US (through a friend of course).
However, hopefully like most online retailers, play.com should have set aside a batch of extra IM steelbooks because I'm sure they'll anticipate issues with damaged shipping or incorrect orders. Most online retailers do that.
Eg: I had pre-ordered Diablo 3 Collector's edition 7 months in advance from ebgames.com
However the credit i used then to place the order had expired and they had asked for a new form of payment. Which I did submit but their system wouldn't accept it and asked me to call in. I called in and they repeatedly failed to add my new credit card. Any how, after 24 hours the system automatically removed my pre-order and cancelled it. Needless to say i was furious because the game had been sold out for months and here i was with a guaranteed copy only to have it cancelled. After resolving the issue with them the next day, they were able to secure me another copy saying that they always keep extras in stock but never keep them part of the inventory online in case any issues arise.
if play.com is smart, I'm sure they'll have an emergency stock on hand.
However, once i do receive my copies mid-August, I'll post some pictures too:
Click on spoiler below for samples of my work (I will put in extra care/effort for the HDN forum. And I wouldn't mind posting pics of other steelbooks i have for the HDN database. These pics were for eBay so i didn't care tooooo much about lighting):
Maybe I can work with the people here if they'd like professional looking pictures taken of their steelbooks. I can do this on the weekends. Will see if we, me and the staff here would like to work something out.
