Wow. What a complete and utter idiot. You can tell easily by just looking at the spine or the corners or by holding the DVD and feeling the weight. What a terribly cheap, filthy, lying company.

I just paid a shitload for that one on ebay, but I'm very excited to get it soon.
I'm in San Antonio, Texas. It's funny I have been trying to get the Black Steelbook of Sex and the City on ebay, but they go for quite alot. I'll settle for this $24 pink version.

It's funny that you should say that, because the pink Best Buy version seems to be the rarer one, if only because there are always quite a few listings for the black one on ebay. You got a nice catch there, consider yourself lucky that you didn't have to outbid 12 other pissed off bidders on ebay.

Yeah, i saw two copies at my local best buy the other day. I have no desire whatsoever to ever own or see that movie, so I didnt pick a copy up.

i dunno....her reply was kind of bogus...if i remember correctly, on some of their releases (not all) they even had a "Limited Edition Steelbook" sticker on the case...if they would shrinkwrap them, then slap that sticker on there, then that would clear up any confusion some people may have...

obviously us true Steelbook collectors would be able to tell the difference though.



also...i picked up The Dark Knight steel on my drive back up north....this puts me at 35.

after Christmas my total should go up to over 40.

It's impossible to find, because it does not exist. In the US the only steelbook was at Best Buy, and in Canada the only steelbook was at Future Shop.

Sure Shot Collectible Steelbook?

Navarre is SHUTTING DOWN BCI

http://www.videobusiness.com/article/CA6623768.html

Pride FC Steelbook is under BCI ... therefore instant OOP, DISCONTINUE

and Collectible!

Thats basically the interesting part, we do not know how many were produced by BCI.

The main basis we have were the online availability and the stores that carry it (which basically not all and only few stores carry this title)

as mentioned, no fye steelbook exists. and regarding availability, bestbuy pink steelbook is difficult to find unless on greedbay. i think the same goes with the black futureshop steelbook too. good luck

I see more listings for the black futureshop one on ebay, though. That's probably anyone's best bet.
