Is the Nightmare on Elm Street steel on the Best Buy website?

I tried ordering the only one available on Friday, and I just got it today, it was the plastic case ver.

The steel isn't available at ANY of the numerous locations located within 20 miles of my house, not even a place holder on the shelf!
 
Finally made it into the store to buy one of these, went with Nightmare on Elm Street. Was trying to decide between that and Seven, Nightmare one because it was the last copy. They had everything but Shutter Island and the Matrix. Funny is everything was either 1 or 2 copies except for the Ring which they had like 6 of.

Got these today-here's to hoping this addition of Steels to my collection helps in a small way bring more (and better Steels) to the US!

Picked up Zodiac, Shutter Island, Cloverfield, and I am Legend. Inside art would have been nice but at least they're not printed back covers like some other countries do. :)
 
I've gone to 4 local BB and I haven't found a single new wave steelbook!!! :angry: :wtf: I really want I am Legend and The Matrix!
 
Apparently there isn't a single Target store in Manhattan, so no Dark Knight Returns steelbook for me I guess :(.

Fortunately, there is a Best Buy in NYC, and thus this happened :oohyeah: :

The Ring, I Am Legend and Nightmare on Elm Street were the only three of this wave that I wanted, and that's good because along with Shutter Island and Zodiac those were the only ones to be available at the store.

$14.14 each, all taxes included, that's a cool price :) - btw, I'll never get used to this American thing of showing a price ($12.99) and then adding a 8-9% tax to it : why not incorporate that tax in the price? To let people think they buy something 'cheaper' until the moment they're checking out? Is it a way for stores to let people know "oh, it's not us you're paying here, it's for the governement"? For people who pay by cash, it can be pretty annoying... I guess Americans are used to that but it still bugs me, as I can't come up with the exact amount of money needed before it's my turn to pay :angry: (I like to have the money ready, it saves some time).

Rant over, sorry about that :D.
 
I don't get the no inside artwork thing, you can easily make your own and these are nice and very affordable at $12.99.
 
Does anyone have Skus for these I did find one online that said it was still available in store I might see about grabbing 2 tomorrow with free reward coupons.

Everyone is sleeping in my house if I can find these in store I might go get some breakfast and get two of these with my $25 reward zone coupon.
 
These seem like they're made with a slightly better grade of tin than Warner's last cheapo wave. Same lame chip-tastic finish and barren interior, but they definitely feel a little more substantial in hand when opening and closing.
