Warner (parent of DC) has been fairly consistent in releasing region free Blu-rays, so you'll likely be able to play it no problem.

It's not about selling out, but likely the margins.

For every SteelBook they sell, they are likely making less than $2.00 profit. It doesn't matter how many you sell, it takes a long time to pay even a stock boy's wage for one hour.

In contrast, look at the things that they are selling like luggage and cell phones. There are tons of margin in luggage which is why they are always 50% off and cell phones are the same because they sell the phone at a loss or to break even and then hook you in for the service for 2 yrs.

The only way physical media can survive is with the premium market which is kind of how vinyl survives now.

I do like Amazon.it and buy from them often, however their packaging leaves much to be desired and is much more prone to damage than Zavvi.

Zavvi costs more, so it depends on how important it is to you to receive an undamaged product like a SteelBook.

Another thing to keep in mind about Zavvi vs Amazon.it is with Amazon you pay the import fee upfront. Since Zavvi moved to tracked shipping only, I've been hit by additional customs duty on both orders I've placed.

BB has been weird lately including cancelling new releases on me like the Casablanca and Christmas Vacation 4ks due to now having them in-stock anymore. So they are telling me that it's a new release but won't get any more stock in?

So is the Groundhog Day 4K Steelbook

and the Halloween Ends 4K Steelbook

[mdc3000]

Happy to see BB get some new steels, ordered Black Adam and Halloween Ends (even though I prefer the alt covers on other retailers for both films) Will decide if I'm keeping them once they get here

[Beckstreaker]

Nice they are stocking them but damn these CA prices. I managed to get the same steelbooks for Halloween and Black Adam from Italy for a bit over $35 CAD shipped as they went up at around €20-€25 before VAT came off.

You'd think these would be a little cheaper now, especially since Universal and Warner Bros is cheaping out by not including the digital code anymore....

You gotta be kidding me, I bring up the topic and didn’t check the forum yesterday and it’s already sold out.

Ridiculous
