I like pre ordering films I've never watched or heard of and just looking through the forums to see what other people think and base it on that and see what others opinions are glad I joined the ninjas

 

[kevindublin]

how much ???

 

[spass]

Decided to finally use my rewardz points on this. Got it down to £15.81.

If this sells out at £24.99 we can forget any price drop
I also notice they don't have the Pre-Order Price Promise for this release

Spoiler

Pre-order Price Promise: Order this product with us today and if we reduce the price between taking your order and the release date, we will charge you the lower price! *terms & conditions apply

Which means if the price did drop on release date they can say NO to you as it was not a title as part of the Pre-Order Price Promise

 

[Noodles]

At that price, I expect the finish to be top-notch like Entertainment Store's steelbooks... otherwise this is just ridiculous!

 

[nekromantik]

I agree. Way too much.
This is price a quality steely like Kimichi would be.

 

[UpsetSmiley]

If this price becomes the norm for RRP steelbooks universally, then I guess this compulsion comes to an end. Sad

 

[DADDYCOOL187]

PASS

 

[morfeusz]

If this price becomes the norm for RRP steelbooks universally, then I guess this compulsion comes to an end. Sad

if this price becomes the norm I will 100% focus only on Asians steels. I don't see this one will come top quality steelbook , not from Studiocanal

 

[yeslek]

£24.99 on a blind buy is an easy no

 

[hayemaker]

Bring back 4k print runs and sensible pricing.

 

[groakybaby]

Ordered! Yay - the more expensive the better for me

 

[harry]

I will wait to see pictures first and decide later. If its sold out, so be it

 

[justboy]

Ouch! I genuinely thought the price would drop on this one, especially as no indication has been given for the finish on it..
I might just pick this up on ebay when people are having to sell it at a loss.

I've just PM'd you a list of my unwanted steels and added 50 quid onto them all. Give me a shout.

 

[earthscope]

Is this the "Witching & Bitching" thread or the "Under The Skin" thread?

Add another twenty five quid on for me mate

 

[snooloui]

I probably would have gone for this at £22.99, but it's a pass at £24.99. If the release date is accurate, then it won't even be a new release by then, so really it should be £17.99.

I'm certainly not Zavvi's biggest fan but I'm not sure this is as bad as it first appears, especially when compared to other recent releases: (Amaray prices taken from amazon)

Under the Skin (WEA)
Amaray - £18.50
Steelbook - £24.99
Mark up - £6.49


Mars Attacks (Released elsewhere in Europe)
Amaray - £6.75
Steelbook - £14.99
Mark up - £8.24


Beetlejuice (Released elsewhere in Europe)
Amaray - £8.62
Steelbook - £14.99
Mark up - £6.37


I have ordered - may decide to cancel later, because despite the price comparisons above, £25 is a lot for a blind purchase.

Fair Point you make Aberdonian.

Then if you allow something for rarity value it looks less expensive again.

Not remotely like trying to justify spending upwards of seventy bucks (taxes paid) to import a Kimchi/Plain archive!
