Very disappointed at same artwork, ruins the collectibility now of the ca version.

I sold my open FS version on Monday I think, in the mail as we speak to the UK. I hope they don't find out about this, they will be pissed. I know I would be.

Sucks as I have the CA/FS one right from day 1 but then again don;t care less as I buy to collect and not to invest & resell, besides this release won't matter much even if it's identical and will always be 2nd release and from the US unlike FS one 1st ever release and from CA/FS

And is it by coincidence a listing of the FS version was listed this evening on eBay?

When has the re-release of a rare steel in a different country greatly affected the value negatively? Not trying to be smart. I really want to know if anyone has some good examples

Great news!! Do not have Canadian so perfect for me. It is truly great film. Almost as good as Heat. I will never understand people complaining about 2nd,3th releases of the same film. I do love films more then steelbooks. For special films for my collection I want THE BEST version of film. And most of the time the best version of film is steelbook. So more steelbooks in the market for this film more happy people. Am I wrong? Enjoy your steelbooks and your life NINJAS and let more people enjoy them.

I sold and mailed out my used Avengers Best Buy Gift Set without the bluray or slipcover for $45 two days before Best Buy announced it would be $20 brand new on clearence! To say the guy was pissed is understatement. But I didn't know it would be $20 and offered the guy a $10 refund. I'm nice, but he still had to be pissed!

Do we know if there is the back is going to be printed or not?

There are numerous examples. Many may disagree. There are forum prices and then auction prices IMO.
IM FS and DE have suffered with presence of play version
Zombieland DE dipped a bit with German re release and play version
Star trek FS and play with the impending zavvi re release of play version

You barely see these for auction anymore. If they appear, starting bids are always on the higher end close to previous sale prices. The days of low starting bids and working up the pricing ladder are no longer. Correct me if I have erred.

In order NOT to get customs fees into the UK, my orders have to be less than £15.00 from USA. This means I will have to order each seperately at different times. Not fun!

I wouldn't worry too much if you own the FS version of this, all the signs are that these are not going to be of a high quality.

Maybe a GB can be arranged for us import duty dodgers

 

[ThalliumBook]

Did someone just use the word "competitiveness" when it comes to steelbook collecting??

The Town will be re-released in Canada as well...

If there is enough interest, then we have HDN open a group buy for this. LMK

I'm definitely interested in this, epecially if it can be combined with some of the others in this wave

Sometimes, I would LOVE an explanation as to why these same titles are rehashed over and over. TDK?? The Hangover?? Book of Eli?? It's beyond silly now. UNLESS different artwork.

 

[pmwhelan]

Will this have a blue banner?

Welcome to the wonderful world of Warner Multiple re-releases and then some more...

Will this and the rest in this wave have no inside artwork?
