Yeah of course!!!

Look this is Star Trek!!

We have two Steels the CA and the UK, as I am German speaking I prefer the UK because this is the only one Star Trek Steel which has German language on the Disc, so it is much more worth than the CA for me and many other German people!

That's because it was a LIMITED edition. And limited editions' value skyrockets when it becomes out of print and there's a demand for it

(1) SteelBook fans
(2) Star Trek fans
(3) all-around kick-ass movie
(4) A large percentage of HT/BD fans are also sci-fi geeks too.

= perfect storm.

My 2 cents on this.

Great movie (this is coming from somebody who hates the original star trek too)

Fantastic looking steelbook.

Last, and perhaps most important, supply and demand.

yeah, the person listed it as a tin instead of a steelbook so probably didn't get as much interest! so his loss was my gain lol

haha i leave no stone unturned, always looking for alternatives to the word "steelbook", as some people that sell them just don't even know what they are

but good for us if we can find a bargain
