Is that just the third party seller, or did it just sell out again.

No, it was in stock again from Amazon (albeit at a higher price of 6090 Yen).

They do seem to be trickling through in very small quantities, so it's worth checking in every now and then. It's come back in stock every day over the past 3 days.

Yeah that was the price I ordered at. I don't see that one on the site right now, but maybe it was because I ordered one already.
 
I just managed to order one from amazon Japan , am I daft to pay this price + shipping?? Or is this destined to be a rare and highly sought after steel?

That's a tough one. It's not rare right now. It was a 4k print run and it's everywhere in Japan - still in stock in HMV stores etc,

It's also a thoroughly crap film in most people's estimation, and the real grails tend to be more mainstream franchises (Iron Man, Captain America, T2 etc).

Definitely a lovely steelbook though, and the extras are lavish, so maybe it will pick up value once it becomes harder to find?

My gut says the uniqueness of it will make it desirable.. Not interested one bit in watching the film but the steelbook itself with the slip looks the biz!! You got to be in it to win it right!! 1 month ago I said to myself I'm not falling into this Asian slip obsession!! Ooops

It's a good one to start on your road down of no return bud :D

I just managed to order a copy too :oohyeah:

We all know that is a rip-off but I believe it will be worth it in the end.

Just a matter of curiosity how much did you pay in total DM?

Only you can decide that, for me personally its not worth the price but each to their own. Japanese steels are always expensive and a lot of the time it's just a nice slip that people pay for. I can't justify the extra cost but I know a lot of collectors do.:)

surfury,

I ordered one at the 8500 Yen price but I am worried as its a single order it will arrive damaged and at that price I will probably shoot myself!! :sniper:

:D

The risk you take I suppose when ordering one steel from Amazon Japan even with gift wrap.
