Finding anyone under the age of 40 who likes Westerns is like finding a Pot O' Gold at the end of the rainbow.
It's sadly a lost genre at this point.
I'm 35, so, yeah, right on the money haha i like the quick and the dead, bone tomahawk (even though thats half horror), and the good, the bad.. (but that's mostly for its status). I think those 3, plus young guns, and modernised westerns like the good/bad/weird and django, are about all the westerns I own.

I couldn't be arsed to finish it. Speaking to @AstroC13 even he (who remasters it fondly) thought it was a slog recently.
Just got my copy of Tombstone from Amazon Italy and, despite my run of arrival successes, it arrived with a nice bend to it. Not grotesque by any means, but it's definitely dented.
Strangely, the site at Amazon still shows it as in transit so I can't put in for a refund/return until it's Delivered.

Mine is coming next week from Amazon Germany... stress levels increased to DEFCON 1 after seeing your post Ha!!
LOL. Sorry, man. Here's hoping your steel makes it to you safely.Mine is coming next week from Amazon Germany... stress levels increased to DEFCON 1 after seeing your post Ha!!
I got the return label but have zero clue how to ship this thing back to Italy from the states. They gave me a international shipping label so I'm ASSUMING it's paid for. I was looking at shipping prices to overseas for a small package and they're freakin' insane, man. It wouldn't surprise me if I get hit up for shipping cost more than what this thing cost me. I guess we'll see. I'll take it to USPS and see what they tell me.
We should have a shipping thread here at the Ninja explaining atypical steps to returns, and the best course to follow.
If it's anything like returning from the UK, it won't be prepaid. You'll have to pay and claim it back from them, along with the item refund, after they've received it. If you email their CS in English, explain the return postage cost, they may just refund you for a single steel. They have with me in the past.
I ordered Star Trek TOS steelbook collection from Amazon US, turned up and someone had forgotten to put the spine stickers on the steelbooks, Amazon US gave me a fully paid return label and it couldn't have been easier.
Ordered Point Break from Amazon France but it was dented, they had me sort my own shipping and contact support to get the shipping costs refunded. They also had me ship to a completely different country (Slovakia I think?) and it even got returned from customs without any explanation, hated the whole process and I couldn't understand why they didn't just give me a discount or full refund as that would have been cheaper for all concerned.
That's amazon US. Totally different thing, and much more reasonable. None of the EU amazon's will give you a prepaid label if you're returning from outside of their region. It's a pain in the arse. Whenever I have shipped back to Italy, same thing as you happened, delivery was refused and it was returned to me anwyay, plus amazon refunded me the order and return postage cost. It's just a pointless faff to go through imo.
Thanks for the heads up on this, man, I really appreciate the knowledge. I contacted them thru chat and I don't have to send back the bent one. I should get the replacement in about a week.
I figure that only so many can arrive damaged. So, if somebody else gets a mangled steelbook then the odds increase that yours will be okay. Honor their sacrifice for your mint copy.Mine is coming next week from Amazon Germany... stress levels increased to DEFCON 1 after seeing your post Ha!!
Ah, excellent. A win all around. Don't sell the bent one yet, as you may be unlucky and get a dented one 2nd time around, but you should be able to make one good steel out of the two then.
Thanks Jaws!
Well guess what? It arrived today out of the blue (pun not intended) Ha! The packaging (if you can call it that) looked good.... BUT, one of the disc's had come dislodged and was rattling around inside. As we all know, that RARELY results in any damage to the disc and sure enough, upon opening it was perfect. The steelbook itself was also in pristine condition! 
I'm sooo relieved !! I just wish the J-Card wasn't in German lol 
Finally arrived yesterday from Zavvi. All in one piece and undamaged. Great looking Steelbook.
Just got my replacement steel today and, thankfully, it arrived in pristine condition!!!
Dude, I was ill prepared for the savagery displayed on screen in Bone Tomahawk, but damn that is an awesome movie!!!
One of those films whose impact you remember. LOL.
Me either. It was legitimately traumatising. Worse than green inferno, and I knew exactly what that was going in lol
