What SteelBook do you REGRET not getting?

[Wreck]

Share!

This should be about steels you had a chance to get at release, but didnt for one reason or another. It's not about a brand new collector, who wasn't around for a release just regretting that. However, you can share that you regret not getting into them earlier if you are a new collector.

Maybe you own it now, but regret passing it up at release and paying more $$$ for it later etc.

I have a fairly long list for this one, which is why I haven't posted in here yet. But to save time I think I'll just go with the two I regret the most...

Iron Man (CA) & Zombieland (DE) - I can't even look at anything Iron Man related without tearing up... I'll be sobbing in the corner of the cinema when The Avengers film comes out.

The one i missed out on was Grand Bleu from Japan.

I considered pre ordering before release but couldn't justify the total harge including shipping so made the decision not to get it

When i do see it on sale now, the price is crazy, so i have to pretend it doesn't exist

I'm sort of new to collecting SBs...My biggest regret is not discovering HDN alot earlier!

Same here.

Well, for me it would have to be my first one. If I had never done that.....I wouldn't be spending all my hard earned money on aluminum boxes!

Yeah, this doesn't make any sense. Just realized I read the title of this thread too fast.

I thought it said which steelbook do you regret GETTING!

I regret not getting the Japanese releases that just came out last month but I wasn't going to pay for the outragous shipping fees. I have to take control of this hobby and not let it control me.

This is an easy one for me. The only one that I want that I never bought was Inglorious Basterds (CA) w/ dog tags. Had the opportunity but passed on it for the German Collector's box. Should have picked up both .

 

[Murdock]

Too many to list , but only started this year i'll have to keep searching and get a better paid job

Yep, same here...

I've only been collecting for 3-4 weeks now, so I can't answer that question. I only regret not finding this site sooner, if I had, I would have so many more kick ass SB's!

when i first started collecting i always used to see steels that are now super rare at buy it now prices of £50 or less, i used to thing no way will i ever spend that much and i just bought cheap ones lol small list of what i can remember:

wanted debossed BIN £45
zombieland BIN £40
iron man BIN £100
john rambo BIN £200 (SEALED AS WELL)
independance day IP error version BIN £60

i look back now and thing if i juust didnt buy so many crap steels and bought one or 2 of the more expensive ones my collction now would be smaller but OMG so much better lol

but what can you do hey who knows the ones that are £40-£100 now could end up going for £££'s in the near future and people will be saying just the same as me now lol

 

[SlimJim24]
