I think Universal underestimated this title. I have 10 local Best Buy stores. 1 still has the digibook available. Only 2 even have the regular combo pack still in stock.

I think the E.T. steelbook won't be too plentiful either.

This was posted on the Jaws Facebook page, in response to the low stock:
"Demand outpaced expectations and more product will be arriving in stores over the upcoming days and weeks."

I totally get what Scott's saying. I want to watch the movie again so it's fresh when I see the behind-the-scenes stuff.

Was at my local Best Buy at 10:30 this morning and they had 8 copies of the Digi. Snagged one and used a $3 universal coupon. Will be watching this tomorrow.

Minor, but I was glad to see the digibook booklet is different than the one that came with the 30th Anniversary DVD. I would have been easy to just re-use that one.

Yeah, I was considering keeping my steelbook pre-order and just buying the Best Buy exclusive for the hell of it (with a $3 Uni coupon), but it's nowhere to be found within about two hours distance from here. Disappointing.

I went to 2 Best Buys in the Chicago 'burbs yesterday evening. Both had only a couple of DVD copies left and that was it. One of them had the "ad correction" which stated No Rainchecks which I find to be incredibly bad customer service considering they failed to mention in their ad that each store would get a MAX of 2 copies.
Nothing at Target, Walmart and Fry's as well.
Finally found one copy at Meijer for $17.99. Yay!

Same experience for me. Finally just went to Fred Meyer and got the standard release for $20.

Was really excited to pick up the digibook at Best Buy yesterday after work ...
... but now, I'll wait for the price on the standard edition to drop below $10 and I'll purchase it from Amazon then.
Fuck you Best Buy.
