Sadly I can see the first few people at each store clearing out their steelbook stock hoping to make money selling them on ebay and the like.

It's available now for in store. I pre-ordered due to working 13 hours release day, it better be there the next day.

According to this page (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/movies-p...at258300050048) they do. If they don't, I think its worth the couple extra bucks to ensure a copy of the steelbook.

Q: Can you ensure the price listed at the time the pre-order is placed will remain the same?
A: Yes and no. When a price is assigned to a pre-ordered item, we are reasonably certain it will remain at that price. However, from time to time — given how far in advance we make items available to our customers — a price change will occur. If this happens, you will always receive the lower of the two prices. For example, if you order an item for $49.99 and the pre-order price is later dropped to $39.99, you will be charged only $39.99. If you ordered the item at $49.99 and the price rises to $59.99, you still pay only $49.99. When you place a pre-order, you are assured our lowest pre-release price.

I might bite at this price, seems like a decent blind buy, right?

I saw it in theaters and greatly enjoyed it. If I had blind bought this one I would have been very happy with it.

Just reserved. Saw it twice in theaters, once with my wife and once more with my best friend. Was fantastic both times(my favorite movie of the year), and @ 20 for the 3D and Blu-Ray is easily worth it.

In for one at BB with in store pick-up. Want that Steelbook and I don't see it getting cheaper than 19.99.

Re: Guardians of the Galaxy --> 12/9/14

Thanks for the heads-up. Cancelled my $27.99 shipped order and bought this at $19.99 for in-store pick up instead. Burned $15 in RZ Certificates as well -- won't find a better time to use them than on a cheap limited-edition store-exclusive I want really, really badly.

None of the BB stores in my area have it available for in store pick up. Also, the 1 is the limit.

Dafuq?

I got 2 for in-store pickup. Just ordered 1 at a time separately.

Ditto. I went in person to see if I can pre-order and they said they are having problems with their pre-order system. I'm in the L.A. area too but who knows if the issue is related to that. It's getting harder to shop at Best Buy these days.

Re: Guardians of the Galaxy --> 12/9/14

Placed two orders, one for me and one for an Xmas gift, for pick-up at two different stores. Let's see how long it takes for them to cancel due to low supplies.

You can say that again. Attempting to order online from bestbuy.com is quite clunky and, at least in my experience, hit and miss.

Just checked again and there was only one BB accepting pre-orders for pick up. Far as hell, too.

They seem to be taking limited store pick up preorders. This morning every store near me had them, now over half show not available.

Amazon also dropped the price down to $19.99, if you don't care about the steelbook.

Cool, I just pre-ordered it from them since BB couldn't get their shit together.

Re: Guardians of the Galaxy --> 12/9/14

My current first world problem: I really like that Steelbook but it won't match the rest of my Marvel collection in regular cases on my shelf. I'll probably just end up getting the regular version of GotG.

The obvious first world solution: get both.

Already did... I have a separate STEELBOOK section in the collection.
