actually they are more like $60-70, shipping is around $15 euro = $24 USD. very pricey for these things and i think sold out at places. i could be wrong though. just my initial research.

You will not find these Steelbooks in the $20.00 - $30.00 range. If they were, I would pick up five (5) complete sets for myself and the people on my group buying list.

Yeah that's what I meant. I dunno where I got just $50 from. I did the conversion for one, and not counting shipping it was like $69.

howwon...why are they so expensive? I mean, I can see them being a little bit pricier, but $70? When steelbooks first come out in the store here they are the exact same price as the regular editions, and if not exactly the same, just a little bit more. But certainly not $40 more.

it's not that they are that expensive. it is that they are expensive to us. the USD sucks compared to the Euro and GBP and therefore the price to us is much more than if we were native to Europe and then shipping from Spain and Germany is an arm and a leg and then the conversion rate again. it is just hard for the USA and CDN bc of the economies.

I've seen a picture of that one before. Never seen the movie, but the case is awesome. Orange is my favorite color.

That was relatively fast and easy. I picked up all four Steelbooks today from a new contact in Spain.

This is from Fox's Cinema Reserve Line of Steelbooks.

Steelbooks in this series are numbered on the spine, similar to Criterion Collection.

Does anyone know if the Transformers steelbook on CDWOW.com is the one with the dual cover? Autobots (front), Decepticons (back)?

Thanks!

Congratulations.

Saw IV R2

Saw IV R2 Sweden Exclusive






This Steelbook is so exclusive, Sweden had their national flag put on the spine. A first in Steelbook history.

What appears to be finger prints on the front cover, is actually blood stains.

What's the difference between the 12 Monkeys you have scott1598 and the one currently sold on amazon.de?

BTW, does anyone know if it's better to put in a big order when you buy internationally to save on shipping costs a bit or it doesn't matter?

I am thinking of placing an order with www.fnac.es and if it is cheaper for a big order, I'd be happy to combine orders with anyone else who's interested.

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.

Did anyone successfully get a copy of this? (Region 2) I am in the process of putting an order through. PM me if interested. Release date June 18, 2008.
