The "OMG the price is high on Ebay, etc!!!" thread

[digitalbabe]

So, we have the "Fake" and "Steelbook Price Drop" thread, but we don't yet have the thread where you post listings with "crazy" prices for Steelbooks. If you see any, post them here and have fun debating. As per forum rules, please remain respectful with each other-one person's "high price", could be another's "deal of a lifetime" score. Enjoy!

Please keep discussion to Ebay and other retailers, not private sellers.

It's because the Dark Knight is selling it himself
That's called a celebrity fee.

That Batman Begins *** is up to 420 Dollars right now

 

[biscuitnoir]

Are those prices for real? it's only 3 or 4 months old

This is getting ridiculous, those sellers should be shot!

 

[cityguyste]

it is ridiculous these bidders cant be serious surely

 

[chanfm]

What is driving these bidders to pay these prices?

 

[sunnyx]

I am not sure if these are legitimate bids. The highest bidder with feedback of 135 has 44% bids with the seller so is the bidder working with the seller?

The only reasons I can think of what is driving this steel up is:
A- it's from Japan and there are buyers who do not know how to order from japan or have missed out (not everyone has the luxuary of HDN)
B- The anticipation of the TDK Rises
C- IMO it is the best looking Batman steel with the awesome white tone effect
D- Big franchise, a lot of Batman fans
E- Only two countries that released this
F- Who wants an incomplete set?? IF the TDK rises is released in white I can really see this shooting to the $600 range.


**G - Forgot to add, it's an awesome movie!**

I think you got it cheaper than anyone else at $30! The release price is about $30 not including the shipping and taxes etc.
