Most Expensive Blu Ray Title In Your Collection

[JimDiGriz]

Most Ive paid is about £40 for the Blade Runner Spanish briefcase I think. Had a few bought for me which might have cost more though.

[Villiam Hayes]

Box set:Prison Break £60
Single film:Gangs of New York(steelbook) £18 Canadian import.
Jaws and E.T.( steelbook) pre-orders are both at that price too.

[flyinmunky99]

Box set = LOST £50
single film = round £20 for True Romance French import.

I guess technically my most expensive Blu-ray would be the Star Wars saga which was £60 or £70 (I forget, but I got it on release). However, if you divide this between the six films it works out good, and the most expensive single film I bought is a tie between Captain America: The First Avenger and Thor, for which I got the HMV steelbooks for £25 each recently

I wouldn't buying the Star Wars films separately for a tenner each but £60 for the box set seems too much to me but I would like to see some of the special features!

Had I been successful, it would have been the Original Fright Night (1985).

The maximum I was prepared to bid upto for it was £100...dissapointingly, I was outbid by £1.

If you're still willing to pay that price, I seriously suggest you take a look at the market sellers on amazon.com. Some of them even ship to Britain !

Don't deal with American Market Sellers.

The one I missed out on was on ebay UK.

Your choice, obviously, but right now there is seller with a 100% positive evaluation based on 4055 sales who's asking exactly what you were ready to spend - and remember; nobody has 4055 friends ready to help them fool potential buyers !

I was ready to spend it at the time yes...doesn't mean I'm willing to spend that amount now.

Hopefully it will get a worldwide Blu-ray release someday, god knows there is a high enough demand for it...it's a Horror Classic.

[Leterface]

I'm lucky I did not win a ebay auction of The Third Man (CC) - 85€ ~ 105$ for a broken slipcase and a used mint disc..

Paying for age & quality, right..?

Next thing you know they merge with Peter Dominic !

Star Wars is probably the most expensive price wise but when you consider it's for 6 movies and a ton of bonus material, it's actually not bad. I find it quite amusing that people complain about the prices of movies on Blu Rays these days and insist on waiting until they come down in price, when some of these catalogue box sets are really set at bargain prices when they are first released. I mean, Star Wars for £70, Lord of the Rings Extended for £45, Superman for £35, James Bond for £90 and Indiana Jones for £40.

I mean, come on... when we used to pay £10-£15 a pop for a VHS tape, these really are a bargain!

[CJPowers]

I paid £26 for a second hand copy of The Hurt Locker from some member over at AVF. This was the Italian release, which was out before the film had hit cinemas in the UK.

To be fair, you’ve just bumped a thread that is nearly six years old.

Personally, the most I have paid for an item that includes several BDs is £375.99, for the Pink Floyd The Early Years 1965-1972 box set.

The most I have paid for a single, non-limited BD is approximately £53 for the Japanese edition of Sam Peckinpah’s The Osterman Weekend. That includes a proxy shopping service charge, plus onward shipping to the U.K. Given that the label involved, Stingray, does not ship outside of Japan, I had little choice, if I wanted the disc.
