I don't think Super 8 is rare but True Grit appears to be.

Not bad but if you're importing it, you then need to factor in postage costs etc like all imports which is why steelbooks from other countries generally are more expensive to purchase than domestically. Only exceptions most times are from retailers like Amazon etc that ship abroad with a decent service and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I think they're both pretty rare for what they are - you can't really find them anywhere now apart from on the dreaded eBay, where the prices of previously bought ones range from £20 to £30. Considering you could get them in shops for less than half that top range price and new, they do seem to be getting rarer and more expensive as they days go on.

The True Grit steelbook seems to have less listings on there, though, which may account for what you're saying - maybe less people are inclined to sell them because they know it's worth a lot more than when they bought it. Anyway, to find either of those titles in a HMV shop new and sealed and at the original price now is damn good luck, so well done to the member who had!

Ah, I didn't know that about finding them in-stores. I checked eBay last night and Super 8 has been going for like $20-$30. True Grit was closer to $50.

The triple play edition bluray steelbook of this is selling for £6 at Stratford Cex Store in East London. If anyones near grab it. Mint Copy too.

[jok3r]

Can somebody pick up one for me?

[craigy235]

Managed to pick this up for £12 on fleabay. Delighted.

One question tho, what is the barcode all about?

Found this in-store at an FYE for only $9.94... minus 30% on promo, so it was like $7.00 US!
