It's 3. Sometimes, and that's more a rare occassion, we can fit 4x. But these slips add extra weight and that gets pretty close.

Cool. Belly might get sacrificed then

Depending on what you get of course

 

[apsmith21]

BTW folks, thinking in the spirit of this scavenger hunt that I'm currently on, I'll offer some other steelbooks that I have kicking around at the $5 price range as well.

I'll add them to the thread at the same time, if I end up doing it.

Curious as I'm new to this, how does this bulk buy for GB work?

Typically people would just pay in advance for their items through the gb section.

With this I will manually invoice the folks that get copies.

But I’ll post a thread and you will reply with your choice. I’m still working through some ideas.

But maybe I’ll do rounds. Round 1, you reply with your first choice. We close the thread, update the list. Round 2. And so on.

That way someone can’t “claim” them all.

 

[bluesteel47]

Understood.
Perhaps limits are a good idea if you're concerned about someone claiming them all?

 

[Wreck]

I will check two walmarts here soon. Just checked one and no luck.

I'll stock up tho and help Andy if i get lucky

2nd walmart only had a few, still no Requiem for a Dream

Some people are finding some of the older $5 bin SteelBooks such as Southpaw, Hell Boy (2019), Divergent, Kin, etc

Two people on reddit have posted finding a few other newer titles in these $5 bins that rang up as $5 at checkout, one confirmed there were no "Site Merch" secondary barcode sticker on top of the original barcode.
Not saying this is going to happen, but keep an eye out for:

Aquaman
Back to the Future - The Ultimate Trilogy
Godzilla vs. Kong (not the new glow edition)
Jurassic Park
Zack Snyder's Justice League
The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot
Smokey and the Bandit

And the non-SteelBook 4K Titanic

Jesus. Wish it was this exciting in the U.K.

Suppose when Sainsbury’s stocked them years back you could pick up a few bargains but it was never on this level. More with HMV before the Sunrise/ JD sports takeover too

Exactly what I was thinking! haha

Probably takes them about 3 hours to drive between Walmart’s in their Monster Trucks though so what you save in steels you spend on petrol. Driving 2 days across desserts and sh!t Lol

I visited London a few weeks ago for the first time in an age and was hoping I'd get some nice finds in Oxford St. HMV but I was pretty disappointed by their stock. Not much that I saw there that I couldn't find here in Ireland (and only fairly recently have we started to see places regularly stocking 4K steels and stuff like Criterion releases in a limited manner). Was a shame I wasn't able to make it to Fopp or BFI like I had hoped.

I loved these radio ads so much, I cut the files from the game and added to my burnt CD mixes between songs.

I work in London and I've never seen more than 2 or 3 single steelbooks, on any of those retail shelves ever, in the last 4-5 years...well maybe the titans of cult plastic boxes back in the day.
It just doesn't happen.
Online or nothing.

Today I went to a Walmart that was very out of the way for me. I found quite a few steelbooks I didn’t have already for you folks. But it obviously has been picked over. Here’s a couple of photos for those that haven’t seen what this looks like. These ones I found were VERY buried.

I had to dig A WHILE.

I've seen some people just get a cart and start unloading into it so they can actually see what they're going through.
