New Wave of amazon.de Steelbooks from Paramount - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

bigjee · 07-01-2010, 01:22 PM

Oh man those are some very nice titles AB.

I definitely want that Transformers steelbook.
Been looking out for a release for a long time.
Tropic thunder is another awesome steelbook.
Would go well with the Hangover.

Ah well....I must resist.
Though I gladly accept gifts you know.....

just seems crazy to me. just my opinion though

True.., stopped buying bluray amarays a while ago infact haven't stepped into Bestbuy in over 6 months and hoped Amazon FR or DE could release some good titles on steelbooks. But this is too much and no point getting amarays when you can get steelbooks.., Atleast they are putting some good titles

Well, bluray-disc.de is now covering the action, so I'm certain it's legit.

I'm willing to bet that amazon just got a shit load of pre-orders in and probably freaked out....

They all got removed about 1 second after each other, so I don't know..

richfell · 07-01-2010, 01:28 PM

Maybe removed as they were priced incorrectly??

They did seem on the cheap side.

looks like they are removed

cruk · 07-01-2010, 01:32 PM

Most likely removed since Robin Hood which was listed earlier is still there.

You can still see them. It just says the item is not available. Click wherever to be notified when it's available.

I got my Confirmation for Transformers and no Cancellation as of yet.

Like I said, I'm sure they'll get put back up. I think amazon got so many pre-orders that they felt the need to verify supply

Afterall, they are supposedly "Limited"....

richfell · 07-01-2010, 01:37 PM

I've ordered cloverfield, collateral, eagle eye, war of the worlds, no country for old men, shooter, transformers and watchmen.

Had my order confirmation email.

No cancellation yet here either.

Why oh why did I sit and ponder instead of just ordering

I'm not having a good week at all.

I bet you anything if they do come back up for ordering, that they won't be €13.99 this time.

American Baron · 07-01-2010, 01:44 PM

These really may be limited to. I mean think about it:

The minimum Order for Scanavo is like 4000 I think. Paramount struck a deal with Scanavo for the 13 Titles at maybe 1000-1500 per Title.

When Amazon then gets run over by tons of pre-orders, what are they to do?

How's that for a theory???

cruk · 07-01-2010, 01:53 PM

Orders might be cancelled if it is indeed a misprice.

ElectroRob · 07-01-2010, 01:53 PM

I think they are correcting the price.
The price was so nice, damn...

Kyot · 07-01-2010, 01:55 PM

They no longer show for me

That's what I thought with Disney and that screwed me. I'll wait a while longer before adding any speculation of my own.

Don't think, just jump in.

There's always the cancel button.
