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.

I don't understand you guys. Why buy a trilogy when a quadrilogy is already released and you know a 5th movie is on the works

Stick to individual steels in my opinion, unless you're 100% sure a sequel won't be released! (Like Back to the Future for example).

One reason (and not necessarily a good one) is that RE Trilogy Ger is unlikely to be re-released. If there was another RE release, it will probably have 4 or 5 movies in it.

I can't wait till the hoarders on Ebay get rid of their over priced BB steels. Tired of looking through pages and pages of so called OOP, rare, etc.

will someone actually pay this much for the Senna Steelbook Ultimate Collector's Edition Box

Click here

This is from the often-mentioned seller socrates-comics, who has a lot of rare steel, at fairly ridiculous prices...

At least one buy it now with both Iron Man 1 & 2 have sold for £100.

 

[Staind]

by the way....the buyer of the BB Korea left positive feedback...so the deal seems legit

How ironic Korea version sells for more when it was so cheap just recently

Possibly because it is more rarer as it is limited to 500 and has the mini slip cover.

My vote is it's because of the slipcover. That alone is worth $50 USD by itself

Yeah but its a shabby slip cover that gets on the way of the steel!

 

[sunnyx]

John Rambo sold for £300 in 'very good' condition'. Not sure if this is legitimate sale but that is a lot of £££ spent!

I hope that wasn't you Nick lol.

I saw this too. I really want FMC but I'm not paying that. They were sub £100 a couple if weeks back. I'll have to trade my way to it.

It is the first 500 on that auction so its gonna be more rarer. If you go for after 500 + edition you will find it cheaper.
