If I was a speculator and bought some to sell, I'd be a bit disappointed. I don't think this is going to be the profit maker some said it was.

The future shop Iron Man did not get high prices during the first week of sale either. These markets and the rarity of the item have to be proven over time based on supply and demand. If steelbooks continue to be highly valued in the future - a steelbook release like this could very well be as rare as Iron Man future shop. (Yes, I said it) Only time will tell. It could also be 1) reproduced soon 2) an international vendor could release one 3) steels could go down in popularity over time 4) the world could end... I think that is why people are getting excited about it. It has the potential to be something really rare (but equally could be worthless in 6 months)
