We've been down this road before Rickah88. I don't understand why you have to try making an attempt at a good deed into some form of judgemental attack.

And, for the last time. I didn't "have trouble" with anything.

I don't think any such thing. I just disagreed with your stating that Zavvi was attempting to pull something shady, as they most definitely were not.
Yes, in your opinion, it might come across as shady...but the facts show otherwise.
So far, zero people have complained about getting duped by this. So, as I said, we'll see how many of the Earth's population you've, potentially, saved from this dastardly deed.
In the mean time, take a chill pill, and relax.

I am very much relaxed without having need for any chill pill.

And, I mentioned that it was a possibility that Zavvi were being shady. Last time I checked, possibilities are not facts. If I was stating fact, I would have only stated that they were being shady. So, I don't know where you got that I was stating anything as fact. However, I also mentioned the possibility of Zavvi just being incompetent... again... as we've seen numerous times. The shady statement was more for humour purpose than anything else. Regardless, it's still bad form on their part.

OK. I'm sure they've been reported. So crisis averted.

The packaging is great and if the interior is full color it will be the best edition. It makes me glad I held off on the Japanese one. All of the other international editions have black and white interior art.

Um, This costs 21.99 GBP which is $35.39 USD, JP version is 4090 japanese yen which equates to $38.27 in USD so less than $3 USD, not quite $20. A minute of research goes a long way.

Are you factoring shipping? That would more than make up for that $20.

The fact that shipping from Japan is so expensive I really think it needs to be factored into the price...especially since shipping from Zavvi is like $1.50 USD.

[KazzPetrelli]

Zavvi charge the cost of shipping to my country (Malaysia) at GBP 14.99!

But the good news is, when I tried to add 2-3 more steelbooks, the shipping cost remains the same!

[Sinthetic]

Perfectly happy with my Japanese 3D Steelbook.

The price on the release has not always been that low and as another poster on here has pointed out the shipping costs are much higher from Amazon JP.

In any case, it's a moot point now. The JP edition has been sold out for months and can only be purchased by third-party sellers who aren't shipping to the US and other foreign territories.

The artwork looks really nice. It would be nice to have it in full gloss, but i heard this one is coming out as matte

[HornyRhino"]

Yep I know what you mean. Im a bit reluctant to pre-order any steels now. One that I did - The Guest came down to £17 with discount. And guess what? Today only you can pre-order it for £14.99! So Ill be cancelling my pre-order and pre-ordering again!

question: is the 3D disc region free or is it locked to Region B?
