I've also done multiple in-store orders on steelbooks on release day and never had an issue getting locked or prevented from placing more than 2 orders.
Thank you for the reply. Have you ever had a case where you first order 2 copies for shipping (when the limit is 2), but then after their shipment are able to place an ISPU order for 2 backup copies on release day, in case the shipped ones are damaged?

I only need 2 (for me and a relative) and plan on canceling/returning the other 2 "backups". Normally, I never order backup/replacement copies for exchange, but after being burned by BB's shipping, damaged steelbooks, and loose/scratched discs recently, I just might for this release.

Something regarding spoilers perhaps?
Was hoping for "spoiler content" for the interior. I have a specific shot in mind, and it would be perfect. If it's not, I may hunt this image down and put it in myself.

Did you pay by credit card? I believe preauthorizations on preorders don’t get you there, only actual charges to the card.

Was the money actually taken out of your bank account or is it just a pre-authorization transaction?

I pre-order everything through PayPal but I always have money in my PayPal account to cover it. PayPal never, ever charges me or removes the money for payment until the retailer (Best Buy, Zavvi or whoever) is ready to ship the items.

Maybe having the actual money in your PayPal account is the key.

I dunno. I've seen people posting about being charged immediately through PayPal when pre-ordering from Best Buy for a long time and I have always found it strange.

Release date for this is most likely March 15th. Amazon.ca is showing March 15th for the regular editions.

Damn this restock pre order has lasted a whole day. No room for complaints when this finally comes out. But you know they'll still happen.

Damn...I somehow missed the restock and I wonder if they're going to restock once again. I really got screwed over with Dune and I don't want to miss this one.

I'm always charged immediately when I use PayPal at BB regardless if I have money in my PP wallet or not.

Zavvi on the other hand only charges my PP when it ships.

I know exactly what shot you're talking about, and it would indeed be perfect. In case they don't use that as the inner art, I'm stealing your idea and customizing my copy

Listing for the 4K and regular Blu-ray on here says April 12th. Do we know where that came from? Has there been an official announcement?

Now that the cat’s pretty much out of the bag, I wonder when they’re going to show the back cover and inside.

Hmm...

That doesn't sound right. It seems too far away given Sony's other recent films like Ghostbusters: Afterlife and the new Venom which got released on blu ray much sooner.

If I had to guess, based on those other two, No Way Home would probably release on March 15th or by the end of March.

That April 12th date may be the UK/European release date. Sometimes the home video release comes out a couple weeks later there.

I guess we will find out soon when Sony announces it.

Best Buy has it scheduled for April, Tuesday, April 12th is looking like the actual street date. (This might change of course, is not set in stone.)

Thanks for the info. That's interesting as it seems quite a bit later than I expected, unless it's a place holder in the sense that it's expected "by" April. Is there a specific date given or just the month? It's possible Sony may be delaying the release due to the film's success, or they may want to space out the digital and physical releases by about 4 weeks.

Willo, I am curious, where did you see April being mentioned from Best Buy?

I know the product page still says "Not Announced" for the release date. Is April showing up under your pre-order details then?
