Is anyone else frustrated with Best Buy exclusive Steelbooks being sold out weeks before the release?!?! I'm sick and tired of having to pay extra on ebay to all the snakes that buy up all of them then sell them for a markup. Is there a way to snag these before they get scooped up? As soon as I saw a listing for Doctor Strange , Hacksaw Ridge, and Passengers, I went to preorder and they are gone! How do u get these releases?

Your right about hacksaw ridge. I forgot that was target. So your saying that even though I'm not able to reserve store pickup, if I go to BB on the release date they will have copies on the shelf? If that's the case why don't they have it available to be reserved online?

I'm always able to secure store pickup about midnight the night before. For example, I kept wanting to order Doctor Strange Steelbook for store pickup but it wasn't available for the store I wanted till late Monday night. That seems to be how it usually is but I have never missed a Steelbook I wanted.

![]() It is true though. If you can get to your local store before they open and can be one of the first through the doors, you will get a copy from the shelf. Some stores, despite being unable to place an in-store pick-up order, will have 20 copies. Heck... my local store in Vancouver still had 12 copies of the Dr Strange 2D steelbook on the shelf at noon yesterday. We didn't get a 3D version. That was after all in-store pick-up orders were fulfilled AND the store opening crowds were done with their stock diminishing purchases! |

I think this thread belongs in the Steelbook section of the forum.
As far as the Steels being sold out @ BB.com, Here is how their system works, a pre order link will pop up ahead of time with a higher cost, then once they fulfill the amount of Steels for the .com division the link will either be removed or the option to pre-order will be disabled. but.. It does come back on in the AM on the release date with the actual "on Sale" price. Hope that helps you. ![]() |

Lol, there's still Force Awakens, TMNT, Suicide Squad and Jason Bourne steelbooks at most of the BBY's in my area. So not all of them sell out.
![]() Moana will sell out day 1, those disney collectors are ruthless. Rogue 1 will probably be similar to Force Awakens, and will only sell out if they break it up with 2D & 3D like Doctor Strange. |

Dark Lord, you're among good people here. If you don't end up preordering immediately or just not able to make it into a store on time during release day, there are members here that do not scalp and will sell at cost plus shipping, materials, and PayPal fees. You have but to ask. eBay is full of scum of the Earth scalpers but with a few rare gems that are looking to help people rather than rob you of your first-born.

Rouge one should be up right now as well as Moana. Once a selected store drops past a certain on hand stock level it becomes unavailable online. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/moana-st...?skuId=5712425 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/rogue-on...?skuId=5734302 Last edited by cowbybill; 03-01-2017 at 03:27 PM.

Just go to a bestbuy store, I always see the steelbooks there on release. Not a lot of them but they usually have a few. |

As others have said you just gotta preorder as soon as it goes up or try the morning of for in store pick up. I check this site multiple times a day (I'm a bit obsessive) for information on exclusives/preorders etc. Good luck to you!

Not "every" time. There's still plenty copies of Force Awakens steels to be had. I still see Civil War steels from time to time, among other, smaller movies.
But then, these are limited. If they weren't no one would care, which is why you see those Star Wars steelbooks everywhere, and tons of them, because they cranked out so many, so people didn't care. Scarcity is what drives them - a double-edged sword for sure, but if everyone could get one, no one would care. |
