Which is exactly why I cancelled my In-Store preorder and placed an order for Ship to home. Even if it's $29.99 currently, I'll just go get a price adjustment during release week and be happy to actually have received it.

Everything I've seen recently with BB online orders, it should ship at $19.99 if it drops to that on release day. They've been doing a good job with that lately.

I wouldn't let the $29.99 price deter you (or any other member)

Also, not sure if this has been chatted about. The last few items I have received from Best Buy online (single steelbooks) have been shipped in their normal cardboard envelopes, but have had two pieces of rigid cardboard on the top and bottom.

Not the way I would prefer steelbooks being shipped, but it is an improvement of what I've seen previously...

Yes, it seems that they have improved their packaging. I ordered 3 copies and they actually came in a box with an air pillow whereas previously they would have shipped in that corrugated carboard packaging. Yet somehow, all 3 copies that I ordered were all damaged on the bottom left of the steelbook. Back to the store they go.

This release seems cursed to me

lol
 
Watched this last night and came to 3 conclusions
1/ I should have seen this film in cinema.
2/ I should have joined the GB rather than hold out for UK Steelbook (Disgraceful)
3/ George Miller would have made an awesome Justice League Film.

Amazing film.

Ha ha that was me. After I placed a couple of orders for the GB it went OOS on the site.

However, they are on "backorder" so no guarantee they will ship.

I've hedged my bets between the in store order and the online ones, so hopefully something comes through for
all the requested copies I have (which is actually small for my normal GB load).



I think the best way to ensure a copy on the next BB exclusive would be to always do an online order - in store pickup or ship to you, really your preference, but I think the pre-order card thing is a fiasco and should be avoided at all costs...

Imagine if this happened for Avengers? I mean....SHEESH, that would be a blood bath, especially given the quantity that we know Best Buy and Disney are likely to crank out for that one!

I think your just as screwed if you receive a damaged copy. The safest and sure fire way is to pre-order and pick up at opening 10am or to be there at opening and pick up off shelf. Sometimes you just got to suck it up. If I ever call prior again, I'll be sure to speak to a manager to make sure its held for me.
 
Grrr... Store nearby shows they have 3, but they say they haven't been able to find them for the past week and a half. I'm guessing some scalper hide them in the store somewhere.
 
Totally missed out on this. No worries though. Will be looking to pick up one of the international editions. Hopefully the announced edition from China
 
Damn. I wonder if they'd price match their release week price since it was practically unavailable.
 
Finally got! Was happy that best buy matched the original price of $19.99 for me. Better packaging as well, slid it between 2 pieces of cardboard. Arrived mint. :D
