So .... will Best Buy price match refund at store pick up if I ordered online? I usually NEVERRRR order online always go in person to select but im working all day that day and no chance to go in till late that night so figured I'd better secure.

Yeah, with store pickup it auto gives you the lowest (current) price when you grab the item in store.

With ISPU it doesn't charge your card until they actually process your order and confirmed you received it.

^ I always thought that was true, because that was my experience with ISPU, but I was charged for my copy of Mockingjay Part 2 as soon as it was ready to be picked up on Tuesday morning, and for the full pre-order price.
I had to call cs and get a refund for the difference, which was easy enough to do.

I've never seen them adjust for a pre order price drop, but then I've avoided ordering online recently for that exact reason. Maybe they've fixed their ways.

any open-up pics?

I just checked their webpage, and it says, if the price changes, you will get the lower of the 2 prices. So, it seems they have changed.

My Mockingjay pre-order was automatically adjusted lower on Thursday, two days after I picked up the steelbook on release day.

 

[Marc Dooley]

Every time I've pre-ordered with in store pick up, I wasn't charged until I picked it up, and I was charged the lower price.
This was the first time I was charged as soon as it was ready to be picked up, and at the higher price.

Hoping that is not the case for The Hateful Eight next week, and Star Wars the week after, but as I said, it was easy enough to call and get a refund.

Art is fine but ruined buy that fugly red border.

As some people are starting to receive this, any chance of some open pics and a confirmation of the finish please?

I like it but it's weird they have added an extra disc space for the uv code. Very odd. Maybe if a roadshow version is ever released and don't get a steel you can put the disc in there.

And please someone tell the guy it's metalic red lol

 

[paulboland]

It's ok but not amazing looking the front artwork is a bit plain
The Target Slipcover Exclusive is what I have on order in the group Buy and for me that looks better than this steelbook

The HMV UK Steelbook the artwork I prefer to the Best Buy Steelbook

Own it Tuesday

Im disappointed.
Should have waited for Kimichi

Now I'm suffering from eye cancer. Doc Brown can you help me...

 

[BluSteel2012]

It's not too bad. It would have looked better if they embossed the title and had the border red IMO.

I love the inside art. Really cool

 

[Hella]

I like it, solid all-around, no embossing or debossing is fine, as long as the finish stands up, which it looks like it does. Weird about the empty disc tray, makes you wonder what they decided not to include; they couldn't possibly have thought it was a good idea to produce this with a triple tray just so they could put a UV code in one of them. No sweat either way, if the Target bonus content is on a disc, maybe add that, or throw the soundtrack in there, no problem.
