Heh, that's me as well. I'd love to buy this but the steelbook art is just too damn ugly.

I bought the awful Skeletor Steelbook but will instantly buy a keep case with original artwork.

My steelbook arrived today. I spent weeks looking for this and it nearly cost me 80 dollars from ebay because the Amazon version is not listed under 4k.

Edit: I actually paid 36 dollars on Amazon but I saw many discs on ebay for around 60 to 80 dollars.

Pretty sure it’s OOP at this point but we’ve seen Sony re-issue several Steelbooks recently, so you never know. $80 is a lot of cheddar. You must really dig the artwork..

Too rich for my blood

There’s a seller on eBay with sealed copies of the recent steelbook, the current price is $27.29 with free shipping. Not my listing, just thought a few folks here might be interested:

I ordered the OOP collector's edition of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood from that seller. The price was extremely reasonable at $70. Thought it was too good to be true but the seller is legit!

That's great to know, thanks for the feedback about the seller. They looked legit given their feedback rating but you never know!

My 25th Anniversary Steelbook came in today. I bought it off Ebay from that seller who is only asking $27.00 for a copy.

One thing I don't understand about this release is why it has both a Dolby Atmos/TrueHD 7.1 and DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 English audio tracks. Seems rather redundant, no?

Anyways video and audio is about as perfect is I could expect from this film. One of my favorite Sci-Fi films with a stellar presentation.

On both 4K UHD releases the DTS-HD MA track is 5.1. Are you seeing something different?

The caps-a-holic page shows the video and audio tracks just under the images:

Nope. Just got mine a few days ago from Amazon UK via Amazon US. I suppose I was strongly considering paying 60 dollars if I think about it. But I regularly saw copies for 80 dollar which is why that price was in my head.

Thanks for the link. I finally caved and bought a copy (my second uhd).

$27 is way too expensive. Highway robbery basically. Not picking this up till it's sub $2.75.

[PonyoBellanote]

It's been saying 10 available since yesterday. What's up? I'm surprised given that it's an OOP steel at not a scalped price, how come in a day the numbers haven't gone down?

The seller is restocking as they are sold.

Brilliant seller - he had the Lawrence of Arabia Steelbook long after it was seemingly OOS everywhere. Same price.

Make sure you ask the seller to pack the Steelbook well. The seller will notify their shipping department to use replacement packaging which is meant to be cardboard box with some padding inside.

Damn! I missed out. I so want LOA on 4K and not have to shell out $200.

Just buy it on Amazon.uk, the seller only wants £499,99 ��������������������
