The supposed "exclusivity" and numbering of it didn't really factor into my decision to get it but if that's how something is presented, then that's how it should be delivered. Ultimately, there are much more important issues out there and as I mentioned before, I'm happy for those who were able to get an order through yesasia. Had I not joined a GB to get it, I would've jumped at the chance to get this through yesasia. But I don't blame anyone for not wanting to do anymore future business with a blatantly and shamelessly disingenuous company like NM.

I'm mocking all of those that are talking out of both sides of their mouth. Yeah, I'm sure folks are so pissed at NM they are just rushing out to cancel both their 1/4 and lenticular slips, in addition to their fullslips. I sense this more as a reason to pile onto NM than anything else. As I've said, this happens with many releases all over the world. It's called shared print runs.
The NM version will still be just as limited, as it has it's own numbered line.

But if folks want to ignore NM on future preorders, hey that's totally fine with me. Just gives me more of a chance to secure my order.

Edit: Not really sure how(or why) this thread got moved to the steelbook deals thread...but ooookay!

I get what you mean and I'm definitely not cancelling my Lenticular slip but it still needs to be appreciated how the live date mishap inconvenienced a lot of people and only to see this happening, it makes that experience all the worse. That's not talking out of both sides of their mouth. But I got no problem with you, man. I can't wait to get my hands on this release, to be honest!

Zavvi has a few once SOLD OUT steels appear to be back again, and at decent prices too.

The Hurt Locker £8.99 (I grabbed one of these, love the art)
Only God Forgives £12.59
Filth £9.99
Reservoir Dogs £10.99

Dano2 · 12-04-2014, 07:16 PM

Use Zavvi code LNS15 for 15% off. Good for about another 30 minutes.

I tried that earlier on the Fox steelbooks... no dice!
I'm convinced these Fox steelbooks will never get any type of discount, short of a price drop.

The £4.99 titles? It worked for me I got The Thin Red Line for £4.24 (about all it is worth I think).

No, the "MediaMarkt Exclusives", but with no lenticular: Predator/Prometheus/Life of Pi/Avatar

Discount codes always seem to be hit and miss with pre-orders. I don't think you need to worry though, i'm sure those will be half the price in no time at all anyway.

That's kind of what I was hoping for, perhaps £14.99 even would be good enough for me.
Not a big deal as I've got a small fleet of Zavvi white boxes en route.

In my own defense, I wasn't going to buy it at any price.
