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.

Hard to confirm as we cannot see a real photo of the front so it can still be the Fnac exclusive.
What makes the difference is the booklet included for FNAC exclusive, but it is true that he doesn't mention it either on the description...

In the Auction text he states:
French Edition BLU-RAY STEELBOOK

FNAC Exklusiv (that was/is in yellow/orange color!)
BRAND NEW, FACTORY SEALED, PERFECT CONDITION,

I also just bought from him and will see what i receive...
 
It probably is the Fnac Exclusive version because that title is on special offer from Fnac right now (€15 or 3 for €30) so the price seems right. The auction pic of the back shows the book sealed in too.
 
Thanks all for the reply.

I thought the one without tatto is this ?

I think it's the expensive version, just with no tattoo. Like selling Inglourious Basterds (FS) without the dogtags. Thats how I understood his wording, don;t hold me to it though!
 
It is sold out at Amazon.jp. It is the 3rd party listing.
Very nice smooth, well made steelbook. The price will be going up soon, but it won't be sold at $200 atm.

It will be at least $150 by end of summer IMO. This is one of the coolest looking steelbooks out. Its so clean looking. The name of the movie blends in with the art.

Not only that, the movie is awesomely funny.

Hey bluraysteel-yup you are correct, not 1st party listing, thanks for the catch!
