Customer service wouldn't send me an Early Watch code. Said I would have to cancel and re-order since the promotion didn't exist back when I placed my original order... I'll choose the Half-Off 4K deal over that thank you

Yea, it's looking like BB is only doing 4K/BR combos from here on out so they can charge more. That's why I'm not getting the Suicide Squad steel.

I think the 4K UHD/Standard Blu-Ray steelbook combos are the right way to go from hereon out.

Helps save money for those who want to future proof AND continue growing their steelbook collection.

Not for people who are not is a position to upgrade a whole home theater to 4K who are committed collectors...

Around this time last year I upgraded my HT with an LG 3D Curved TV. I'm not about to do that again.

Best Buy is going to lose money if they don't offer 2D steelbooks I like having a DVD copy as it's watchable anywhere without hassle, even at a friends house if he doesn't have wifi etc or what not. Also, my favorite studio Disney has no intentions on going to 4K anytime soon, so come on Best Buy, stop shoving 4K down our throats to steelbook collectors.

I think you are confused

Because it's the studios decision not Best Buy's

Don't know why anyone still wants DVD. Haven't seen a DVD player in stores in a long time. I personally would like to see DVD removed from any Blu-Ray packaging. Why would u want to watch a movie in lesser picture quality than Blu-ray??? Would love to see more 4K Steelbooks with second disc being regular Blu-ray Disc. DVD should be obsolete by now.

No refund for the price adjustment yet, but last time this happened (I think 13 Hours?), I didn't get it til the day I received the Steelbook, so I'll be patient. I dunno how much of a difference it'd be anyway with the 50% off and all.

As a child I refused to have castor oil shoved down my throat "for my own good."
As an adult I refuse to have 4K shoved down my throat. Then it will be 8K, 16K, 32K etc. The hell with that. Regular blu-ray still makes my day.

It's probably because of the holiday season. I'm still waiting for a black Friday order from Best Buy. I usually get my orders within a couple of days, but it's now taking longer.

My tracking number says it's still waiting to be picked up from the place of origin and gives an "UNKNOWN DELIVERY DATE." I usually get my preorders on Monday, too. I'm wondering if I should order a copy for store pickup just in case it's not gonna be here until later this week like some of you are reporting.

Same here.

I noticed it wasn't even shipped until Sunday while they are usually shipped on Friday. They must be backed up from cyber week.

I ordered a copy for in-store pickup in paranoia before bed last night. Going on lunch to pick it up. My copy won't arrive in the mail until Friday.

Tracking says Thursday. Gonna go on faith that it'll be in good shape. Don't have the patience to buy an extra copy, hold onto it, go back to the store to return it, etc.
