Notes: A note about orders with Future Shop. It's important to understand this, as it's going to be different this time. This steelbook should be available with PRE-ORDER only until March 6th. If you don't pre-order, then you won't be able to get a copy. You can pre-order for shipping online, or pre-order for in store pickup. But if you walk into a store on March 7 looking for this steelbook, you will not be able to grab one off the shelf.

In store pre-orders - available until Feb 27, 2014
Online pre-orders - available until March 6, 2014 (day before release)

Lol maybe we weren't allowed to tell people there would be some on street date.

Sorry for getting a tad angry there Andrew. But it just seems misleading, ya know? Out of curiosity, why weren't you allowed to tell people there would be some available?

All the flyers would have to say is, very limited stock in store, pre-order to guarantee your copy. right?
 
Have Zavvi taken over FS and instilled their 'tactics'? :naughty:

Oh no it's just called business, companies do whatever it takes to squeeze what they can out of consumers.

No worries, I get pretty passionate about these things too :) It all came down to a requirement. I'll PM you

FS really dropped the ball on this release!!! Pre-order in-store or online to get the Steelbook, did that, walked in to get my copy no Steelbooks just the collector's edition slip and regular slip. Screw it I'll just take my money back, was informed that was not possible. My frustration level was through the roof, what a needless gongshow I just wanted my steelbook. So now it will be an epic mission to get myself a copy. Brutal... Just brutal!!!
 
i thought sience best buy and futureshop are the same company that the steelbook would be the same and i would not have to import. im one of those people thats likes having the dvd as well as the bluray and futureshop actually got the dvd even thought its just in the paper sleeve. Best buy its just one disk and a paper code for a uv copy. i would have ordered from futureshop if they shipped to the usa. just wanted to vent oh well at least the USA is getting steelbooks

I don't see how its not possible. I pre-ordered in store before and was told the $10 fee was refundable.

It IS refundable... BUT it's really hard for CS to do it. I know I did it in the past... they had me waiting 30 min in the store so that both systems (regualr and pre-order) can "talk" to each other...

A pain in the *****

When I returned something bought on pre-order they were able to refund but I had to come back the next day to get the pre-order amount refunded.
