No way! The original red splatter halloween kills steelbook is one of the best steelbook designs ever

I was able to order this a minute ago, but now it looks to be sold out again.

Spencer_Kain92 · 09-08-2023, 06:26 PM

It's back up now for anyone who couldn't get it last time.

Dammit. Got mine today and it has a gigantic dent in the front side. Box was pristine, so it was knowingly packaged that way. Bravo, Best Buy. Bravo.

Does anyone know what time Best Buy makes them available to purchase online for in store pick up? I know it’s usually the night before.

Yeah, I was actually going to pick this up, went to a store that I'm sure had plenty, but only put one on the shelf. I almost thought it was ok, but then found a dent on one side. At that point, I instantly remembered what a hassle it was to find acceptable "Lord of the Rings"/"Hobbit"/"Rambo" tins and gave up. Not going through this again.

Maybe if they one day put more on the shelf and I happen to see one, but I'm not going to actively try to hunt for an undamged one. It's insane that so many of these are damaged.

Probably for the best, since I used Best Buy's mobile self-checkout for the first time and felt like a thief. Probably would've looked worse with that large set. I bought something else there, paid for it in the app, there was no security person at the front of the store, there was a line at checkout, and tracking down a BB employee defeats the whole purpose, so I walked out the door waiting for the security thing to start beeping. Nope.

I hear you with not going through this again. I finally ended up with an undamaged one, but it was a hassle to get it. My initial set I ordered arrived in a perfectly undamaged shipping box but when I opened it up the tin had a big dent on the front

so, it was packaged this way when it was shipped out, nice job Best Buy packing dept. Checking online I see that my local Best Buy has 2 in the store so off I go to return my damaged one and hopefully score one from the store that is mint. So after carefully checking the 2 they both appeared to be fine I purchase one and go out to my car where I open it before I leave just to make sure it is ok under the j-card. Well, sure enough, under the j-card there were several big scratches, so here we go again, back into Best Buy I go to return the one I just purchased and tell them I'd like to exchange it for the last one they have which the woman had no problem with after I showed her the scratches. So yes, I ended up with a perfect one but not without going through a hassle to get it. I hope Best Buy doesn't release any more of these sets that I feel I must have because it isn't worth the aggravation to get a mint one.

I had the same issue with shipping but, thankfully, the second one they sent was mint. Normally I don't have issues with Best Buy when it's regular steelbooks but they just can't seem to get their act together with large sets like this one. Every one I've bought from them has had to be returned at least once.

willo007 · 10-12-2023, 09:03 PM

Well I got mine in the mail today, the case has no dents, however the steelbooks for part 1 and 2 have paint chips and part 2 also has a scratch on the bottom of the front plate. Part 3, that SteelBook is pristine even though you know the movie was....

KMan2100 · 10-13-2023, 06:49 PM

Just drove a little more than a hour to grab the ISPU I placed yesterday and unfortunately mine also has a small dent in the front at the very top where it meets with the top of the case. I decided to keep it since it was the only one they had left and I really don't feel like driving another hour to a different store to try my luck again. If Best Buy does decide to drop physical media then this may just be one of the last things I ever buy from them.

mca213 · 10-13-2023, 09:43 PM

With the price of this set you think these idiots would get Myers name spelled right on the certificate of authenticity
.. great quality control

buckeye1 · 10-14-2023, 03:43 AM

How long do you think that Best Buy will keep these in stock before they completely sell out or won't restock due to them stop selling Blu-rays early next year? I'm debating on getting this set before it's too late. My store is completely sold out and unable to ship. There is one other that has a copy but that's on the other side of town. I could be possibly passing a Best Buy on my home from out town this weekend I can try to do a pick up there.
