I haven't bought any of those grails, they are just too expensive for me.
And I could never justify spending that much for a steelbok.

I bought them all on release day for $30/piece max, I was being sarcastic, they were wise decisions.

Okay, but I don't get how buying very rare steelbook is a fail though.

Its an automatic fail if the steelbook has Green in the title.

Or if the film is terrible of course.

Felt a bit guilty about paying more than I had previously paid for any film for the Thor steelbook...until it arrived
