Don't disagree with any of that, Chip, but for us UK buyers, the landed cost on this title will be something in the region of 130-140 dollars. That's some investment right from the get go (and doesn't include credit card interest etc.) if one is hoping to resell and make a profit over the long term. I think for you guys in the US the import costs are somewhat cheaper, which makes it a safer bet.

But anyway, I hope you're right and it's a killer slip. I'll look forward as always to your in-hand pics

Combine shipping, that is the only way, or if you can trade with USA members because they don't get custom fees and their shipping is cheaper. I've got this combined with several orders, it brings down the price but still expensive, but who said this hobby is cheap?

I am also gonna stick through it, there must be a hidden goodie. I have high hopes for this Steelbook.

Yeah I try to do that whenever shipping from Japan, but there aren't really that many titles I want at any one time, so it's not always easy to do. You end up ordering digibooks and other stuff to bulk up the order. Like you say, it's expensive..!

254 copies as of now. Cancellations are more than keeping pace with purchases.

Now up to 280. Can't see this one selling out before release date.

All JP Release is always exclusive for me.

Bump, any members in Japan please provide photos. I am sure I'm not the only one waiting to see how it looks. Hopefully it won't be another TDR disappointment.

Can't believe it... I'm trying to take some photos but keep getting called away by colleagues.

Do you know what you are doing to me .

Edit: @AlexG, I agree no point in teasing us.

 

[AlexG]

I think your better off just leting us know if it comes with a slip or not if you can't find time to post pics? it will be greatly appreciated.

 

[domalorite]

Can't believe we waited all this time for this..

No full slip, no booklet, no nothing... And a rubbish slip at that.

 

[AlexG]

Appreciate the pic bro. You just saved me some serious cash even though the slip is not that bad I guess. Definitely not worth the price.

Tx for the pix!!! Added to OP

 

[prodigy1985]

That price for that??? Looks like those 300 something copies are staying in Japan.

 

[blackberry]

Really complete letdown. This should be priced at 2980 rather than 5980.

@domalorite, thanks for the pics. I definitely saved some serious cash not ordering it. I will probably order the regular Blu-ray release, it comes with a slipcover and booklet. Korea knocked this out of the park.

 

[blumaster]

happy I cancelled a while ago. It still would've been worth it if it had the HDN selected inside artwork, but obviously that isn't the case.

omg.....! What a let down.....

 

[VRob98]

As expected, huge let down and nowhere near worth that price.

And this folks, is exactly why you don't pre-order before you know what you're getting. The signs were all there that this would be an overpriced dud and that's exactly what it is, unfortunately.

I hope those who stuck a pre-order in managed to get out of it in time.
