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! :scat:

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

Does anyone else think this is a little bit too much??

The Avengers

Just sold for $95.60...

It is a little bit too much but it is the 3D blu-ray and the Steelbook case. I imagine for someone who doesn't have the ability to get hold of these items they probably think it's a fair price to pay.
 
common practice?

A FS Basterds auction ended at $356 & I thought it was over. But it somehow was just re-listed. When I looked at the bid history, every offer was upped by someone with a zero feedback. Was the seller protecting against a "low" bid with a dummy account? If the bid was real & just fell through, they would have just sold to the person that came in second, right? How much higher was it supposed to go?

That's old news, we are already aware of that, the seller - a member here, has already told us the buyer had given a duff address and obviously messing around with the auction.
 
Wow - the shenanigans go both ways, eh? Shame. I just received the e-mail about the re-listing, didn't realize it was already discussed.

Keeps trying to get steels for cheaper than the price the manufacturer charge even when they go out of print. Seriously he or she has problems.
 
Hope nobody from this site is bidding on this item ... look carefully at the steelbook then read the description ... already in our fake - scam section ... Good name also !! Steeler ha ha

And the price :(
