Keep an eye on it the day before/of/right after release the people who canceled orders, sent back, never picked up will start to show up should be some moments during that week to grab.

Only 3 more weeks of this routine.

Then comes the "do you think this will be available for in store pick-up?"

Then "wait until 12 Central on April 12th or 1 Eastern"

Then "my store only had X amount of copies and X many had loose discs and X many had spine slashes."

Then "I received this today in a bubble-mailer and it was crushed." and "I received this today in a bubble-mailer and miraculously it arrived mint."

Then "do you think this will come back in stock online?" and "do you think they will ship any more copies to stores?"

Then "do you think they will do a reprint of this sometime between now and the end of time"?

Then "the price dropped. I got my price adjustment."

Followed by "I'll have a twist of lemon."

"I'll have a twist of lemon."
"I'll have a twist of lemon."
"I'll have a twist of lemon."
"I'll have a twist of lemon too."

Here are some photos of the UK version. I assume the US steelbook is identical.

I'm really not as excited for this release after seeing that Sony won't release the 3D version somewhere in the world. If they released the 3D I'd be paying upwards of 100 for it, but no 3D then it's not worth it.

Thanks for the link.

I love the artwork, but I am a bit disappointed that the steelbook appears to have a matte finish.

I was hoping for a glossy finish myself. Oh well! It is what it is.

I believe Homecoming was matte too, but Far From Home was glossy if I recall correctly.

the going in and out of stock, coming soon, not available is not uncommon and is what cyclorama was pointing out earlier in the thread. this is how it goes and has been going with popular titles the past year or so.
Also, it is unlikely that store will be flooded with popular titles. Again, for the past year or so a bulk of everything for popular titles are sold via preorder and the store may have 2-3 to put on the shelves.
Best bet is to wait until 10p PST the night before release to order for in store pickup or they may be available for shipping a day or two after release.

Except for Eternals. Still tons in store. I suspect Spidey will do a bit better sales wise.

got my usual review your preorder details email and that I will be charged for it soon. So I guess next Tuesday is still looking good. I wonder if Tyrok has pics yet.

Has anyone gotten any shipping soon notice?

I used to get steelbook pre-orders shipped in the later part of the week prior to a Tuesday release. They were often shipped in a box. For the past couple of releases, I got them shipped from a BB store just the day before release, often in a bubble mailer.

I got a notification to check my payment info. I haven’t been doing too well on early shipping lately though so usually get them on release day now, when it used to be Monday at the latest.

Ironically I’m unable to make changes to my Heavy Metal order because it’s “ready for packaging” despite not coming out until 4/19, but no movement on this one.

Sadly, it's not going to be in stores. Even after delays Sony still couldn't get enough made to get a decent amount in stores for their biggest movie ever.

Why?

Everybody was smart and pre-ordered it, right?

And they ordered extra copies to ensure they get at least one good copy, right?

So everybody should be fine.

yes, it will be equal parts entertainingly hilarious and insufferable

People will panic, talk about ebay, scalpers, overpaying right away on ebay. Then a day or two after release a small amount may be available for shipping, people will complain they overpaid or brag that they're glad they waited. Then back to the complaining about how Sony and Best Buy should've predicted this and made more.
Theeeeennnnn .... because its Sony there will likely be another print run 6 months to a year from now or a new shiny box set with all Sony Spidey movies, with people complaining about a new release or gloating they're glad they waited, missed on this.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
