Last Action Hero steelbook got a release in other countries in Europe
It sometimes happens UK gets more stock made available

UK distributor just adds discs and jcard

On another web forum they mention the collector's edition a limited amount will be made available at around 8 PM Friday August 27th

Not sure if this is correct as the steelbook only edition has a re-release date of Septermber 20th

The collector's edition does not have a new release date

So not sure if it's the steelbook only edition back available or both editions tomorrow at 8 PM

As a collector not many things piss me off more than reprints!!! Greddy F***s

its quite funny. Alltheanime recently released a Neon Genesis Evangelion ultimate edition for £199.00 (!!!!!!) limited to 1500 copies. It sold out in 30 mins. Then a few days later they announced a further 1000 copies due to the 'success', after talks with the publishers.

I honestly think that practice should be illegal. Since you purchase something believing it is limited, it is given a print run amount... only for them to print more. That literally de-values the item that you originally bought.

With a £200 set of blurays, I would not be happy.

But for a £30 bluray. not so bad. just the practice of announcing a print run and marketing it as a selling point to generate demand, only to print more- thats kind of shxtty.

So call a wahmbulance. Are you really buying something because it's limited? Really? Something being devalued because they print more? Really? You bought an item because you thought it would be limited and therefore be more valuable.

Who are the Greedy F***ks now?

I’ve never understood why it upsets people. Who cares

I’m pretty sure the original print run was never announced so it matters even less if there’s a reprint

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

I'm pretty sure it's not the Collector's edition going back up as the other forum states, unless those 2000 numbered editions are returns and they are re-selling damaged copies (zavvi would never do such a thing..), sounds like a zavvi mis quote, but the steelbook only being re-released, hence the new pre-order date in the listing.

Don't forget that zavvi cancelled everyones order of 2 or more and reduced it to 1, so there were less of these steelbooks than normal first time round.

It is the collectors edition going back up for sale later at 8pm

But I thought everybody hated the slip after they received it. So I wonder if these are returns?

Knowing that so many people were disappointed, are there people who still want this?

 

[choochoonesme]

I received an email to say this was in stock but it says Sold out. Did it sell out in 1 min or is there an issue with the site?

Typical zavvi screw up no doubt. These haven't been back up to order/pre-order yet....

 

[paulboland]

It did not go live yet as I have been checking before and after 8 PM

 

[Kosm]

Where the heck is it then??? Been refreshing the browser since 7.59pm!

 

[paulboland]

Zavvi employye likely gone home and forgot to update Zavvi website before he left work

 

[paulboland]

Steelbook only edition live to order

The collector's edition not gone live

 

[kolchaker]

Steelbook only live but not the collector's edition,unless that's already sold out.

 

[paulboland]

I think Zavvi have got their info wrong

The steelbook got a reprint in Europe and that would be why Zavvi got more stock from Sony UK for the steelbook only edition


The email zavvi sent only shows a photo of the steelbook only edition

 

[Mr Y Fronts]

I did say above that the collector's edition going live again was likely a mistake, as just received another email saying resolved and now the pic they show is for the steelbook only, but still descibing the collectors edition,

I did order 1 of the steelbooks and noticed that i've been charged already and it's showing as "Awaiting Despatch', I hope this isn't a return i'm getting.....maybe leftover stock from the first time around as I recall this never went back up for order previously. Then when those in stock are exhausted, the rest of any orders will be back-ordered for 20th September.
