Steelbooks of rarity and epic prices

[NARMAK]

Ok, before i get called blah, blah, blah scalper, blah. Please note this thread isn't for discussion of future titles that will reach rarity etc to the heights of FS Iron Man but if you talk about it ITT your not gonna get a firing squad, at leats by me

So what are the rarest steelbooks and the ones that are so difficult to get hold of? Not all obviously will also rank highly in the price stake either so this is a two ranking system.

1) Rarity - Limited production numbers etc
2) Price - Reached sky high prices even if they had higher production numbers than other titles

Now, don't think this thread helps scalpers one bit considering this is the past and prices are so hiked up anyway lol.

[blurayisnice]

I don't know many...

Maybe ''Thor'' release?
Or HMV '"Drive'' release? (Eventually?)

I know this one:

Sucker Punch comic con steelbook (900 made or so). It sells for $150+.

And Chronicle might become expensive too. It is OOP & OOS now. Immediately after that I managed to buy some of them for like €20,00 via eBay (sealed) and now they're allready asking 35 - 60 euro's...

[Thugjustice]

Without mentioning the obvious title like IM FS etc I'd say :

Romeo and Juliet china release
Moulin rouge china release
sucker punch SDCc
Ultraviolet G1 German release ( not really expensive but only released in Germany and I have one )

The "Oracle of Steel" has spoken to the greed obsession once more, how can one so wise and knowledgeable not know the answers to life's darkest mysteries and secrets?

Can the solution to neediness be as simple as paying retail plus taxes and shipping and finding those lacking the resourcefulness and wit to find goods absent the middlemen circling above?

What sayeth thee, oh speculators, schemers, and dreamers?

I don't want to discuss any of the current releases and future titles that are kind of 'normal' because very few reach rarity status like i want to find out about. Sucker Punch Comic-Con edition though, thats the one with the comic book artwork right? Seen it and it looks sweet. Saw a member who had it in here, also has a massive collection just for Sucker Punch which looks ace.

Those are some really good titles. Never knew the top two had actually had a steelbook release. What was the artwork like? I would have thought those two would be something special.

[Show spoiler]

Let The Bullets Fly is aparently prety rare and a few hundred $ when they go on sale.

Ltd to 1000 and produced via a Blu-ray community.

[dennismenace]

The only one that I know of - and was broadcasted for awareness of its TRUE "RARITY".(despite the remains were sold in Warner Brother's E-commerce Site) the numbers remain LIMITEDLY TRUE

Which is 900 made.

I'll forward your offer to him

[Blu-ray Fanatic]

Last year I sold my Independence Day asian steelbook for $68 on ebay only to be ripped off later on when the buyer claimed he never received his order. Damn Germans.

Just recently, someone on ebay sold a brand new & sealed Independence Day steelbook for $224.

[ricster]

I am slowly in the process of adding my collection to the community. Just takes time. It really is a nice steelbook.

Steelbooks

Limited editions
