The front of the tin says:

Funny how fast this petrol can edition's gone OOP, considering it cost roughly £15 or something back then.

How much has it been selling for these days?

I bought it in brand new condition (still factory sealed) for £19, which I didn't think was too bad.

I almost bought one while they were in shops, but th only place I saw them in they had big dents in the tins. They must have gone OOP shortly after as I didn't see them after that.

I bought mine from Play.com a year ago or so. I had noticed that a lot of people were complaining about receiving dented tins but I figured that Play had learned their lesson and improved the packaging. Of course they hadn't. A pretty large chunk of those in circulation are probably in bad shape because of it.

Quite sad for such a nice release.

Yeah it was a shame.

That's why I was a bit unsure about buying off eBay, but I wasn't going to get it cheaper so I just decided to go for it. Fortunately the case was perfect!

How so, both? As in, you care very little but could care even less?

They mean the exact opposite of one another.

Very obvious that you 2 are not young anymore

Kynch · 08-06-2009, 01:49 PM

Feck it.

You guys seen these? They're DVD so don't get overexcited:

richieb1971 · 08-06-2009, 02:10 PM

The tin is kinda bendy. Even the slightest bit of pressure with your finger makes the tin indent. Usually it pops out again, but obviously something a bit pointy could easily dent these things.

ibra · 09-29-2009, 09:12 AM

Is this tin edition really gone OOP? (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Reservoir-Do.../dp/B001DU4B0Q ) ?
Because there`s written "dispatched within 1 to 3 weeks". Or if i`ll buy it throught amazon i will get version in amaray?

Matt74uk · 10-04-2009, 09:35 AM

Still appears to be for sale here:

Even part of 2 for £15 deal.

Phatmann · 12-04-2009, 11:16 PM

I bought this from a seller on amazon 3 days ago for £11.51 and it arrived earlier today. The seller I bought it off is still selling them on amazon (DIRECT_OFFERS_UK) and for cheaper than I paid just 3 days ago

so I recommend this seller to anyone looking to buy it. My copy also has a dent in the tin and the "Micheal" Madsen mistake. I noticed the mistake as my name is Michael - similar to Mr. Pain's reason for noticing.

ChrisDilke · 10-18-2010, 02:56 PM

Sorry to bump an old thread, but is this tin the same size/height as a regular Blu-ray case? I'm tempted to order as it just came back in stock on Amazon, but I'm quite fussy about how uniformed my collection looks, and to me it would look out of place if it were DVD case size.

It's a fair bit bigger than a standard blu-ray case as you can see in the pictures. I have mine on display on a seperate shelf with other blu-rays in custom cases.

,deeii · 10-18-2010, 03:58 PM

Wohoo! Just ordered the petrol-can from Amazon.co.uk it was the last one!

McClane29 · 10-18-2010, 05:57 PM

I'm hoping I can find some will-power and not order this...
