Pick this one up if you can. You will not be disappointed with the covers. Two thumbs up.

The newest Steelbook from today is Scarface, which was released on January 21, 2008. The oldest one from today is i,Robot which was released on October 30, 2006.
My Steelbook count is in my signature.

Man, I'm having a tough week.
Order from Amazon.co.uk is cr*p and the entire order had to be returned.
CDJapan sent me plastic case movies instead of First Press Steelbooks.
Order with Spain went south into the toilet.

Sorry to hear about that HOWWON. I feel your pain! I've always been a little skeptical about ordering from foreign sites and your experience gives me more reason as to why I feel this way.

I couldn't fax over the Credit card charge authorization document that they requested. I kept getting a busy signal from them and their E-mail reply is in broken english, so I am not sure what they are asking me
I can buy the same Steelbooks on eBay but it will cost a lot more money.
Maybe this is a good thing. I just saved myself some money by cancelling the order.
I think I'll stick with retailers from Germany. 100% so far.
The problem with CDJapan appears to be looking up. They are paying for the return shipping cost because of their error and they will re-ship the First Press Steelbooks at no charge.

Sweeney Todd R2
I am working on getting in a small supply of the Czech Republic Sweeney Todd Steelbook.
***There is no guarantee that I will be successful.***
Please do not PM or E-mail me with requests. I will post if I am able to find a source.
Update: Price 539.00 Kč (koruna) converts to $34.00 CDN
Update: Shipping is approx. $58.85 CDN. I am hoping that this is a typo on their webpage.
(I am still working out the details with a Czech Republic online store)
Update: Well, I am running out of options here, as no one has been able to help me translate the web page. I am going to try one last source in Vancouver, who may have a contact in the Czech Republic. Failing that, I am going to end the search.

CDJapan does not know the difference between a Steelbook and a Steel slipcase.
