interesting tidbit.

loads of the Star Trek got damaged back in the day but no confirmed number tbh. In the region of a few thousand units / a pallet load, as a result of a fork lift error!! The warehouse ended up destroying them as they were un-returnable and no good to send to customers

I managed to grab one on ebay but the item came in with few dents. But I'm still happy I got this in my collection.

Incorrect thumb was attached - showed the Future Shop version. Added new thumb with UK version (removable ratings stickers) and added picture of a sealed copy to the OP.

Sucks, I've never imagined it was that hard to find. Oh well

*sigh* Removable rating stickers on a Play steelbook exclusive. Those were the days.

I could be wrong, this is the most valued UK SB when mint and sealed.

Thanks Andy, I go into reading these threads thinking that it is possible to get one now, and find out the original post was from 2010. I hate when they reopen old threads

i picked up an open and slightly scratched copy off ebay for £20, but ive seen them go for as much as £65 sealed.
doesnt seem to be rare though, as theres 2 or 3 copys on ebay at any given time, so they definately change hands regular.
probably lowered the price a little with the german release, but ultimatley its about perseverance.
if you keep your eyes on ebay every day, and keep checking the forums, then you will get one eventually.

just dont expect to pick one up for the same sort of price as it was when it was new and in stock (£17.99) you will be looking at £35 if you want it sealed, £30ish if you are happy for it to be open.

Good times! just swagged this for £30 brand new sealed.
Is a slight dent on the right hand side tho, anyone tried to get these out with much success?

Quite a few members have made repairs but it depends on where its damaged and how much obviously. If your not confident don't try it because its a fine line between a fix and making it worse.

Okay cheers for the advice Pud!
Will wait and see how lucky I feel on the day it turns up

I bought this off ebay for £40 used as it was described as like new. I discovered there were two minor dents to the front cover and a visiblde dent on the spine as well as some thin scratch marks where you open the cover.

I returned the item because I could not come to a resolution. They are quite rare, not many out there sealed for a decent price. Most are offering around between £80-£100 sealed mint.

Or even more. Somebody's trying to sell it for $200+ on eBay.ca

It's a nice steel yeah, but I would not pay that price.

Someone eventually is gonna buy it! It's the buyer with no patience
You got to have patience is this hobby otherwise you go bust too early with your cash. I'm sure there be someone one day who will buy it. Let me know when you get one and if it's cheap count me in as as well
