I’ve been wanting the steelbook of Halloween kills but we have assholes in this world who wanna buy the whole damn stock and resell it for 100 bucks. I know I’m not the only one. So scalpers, please fuck off it ain’t a PS5 lmao it’s a dvd, your pathetic.
Keep an eye on this thread. It was up for purchase for a short time again yesterday. You might luck out.
It’s been a problem forever and it’s only getting worse in every community. And it’s bookended by an entitlement society that thinks they are owed everything on a silver platter, so they want to pay less for something and lowball sellers who are asking fair prices. I finally scored the new Lego Titanic for my collection and it took 2 months to find one that wasn’t being sold for double the retail price.
I feel your pain…i think in a few months you will be able to pick it up at regular price though…let it cool off a bit
Sorry, but that’s not going to happen with secondary prices for steelbooks. They stay pretty high. Your best best is going to be a restock on Best Buy or a rerelease.
Really? Bc it happened with the 2018 steelbook. It’s on Amazon for $30
Link? I’m seeing the Best Buy steelbook for $99 on Amazon.
Got both of these last month for less than $30 each. Just gotta look around. After the craze you will be able to find them I promise.
That first steelbook is a rerelease, not the original one that came out. And the second one there, the Scream Factory version, was a standard release that isn’t a steelbook.
Dude I’m proving a point you will be able to get the steelbook though. Just gotta chill
We’re talking in circles.

I originally said “Your best best is going to be a restock on Best Buy or a rerelease.”

You replied that the 2018 steelbook is $30 on Amazon.
-
I linked the original release of the 2018 steelbook for $99 on Amazon and asked you to post a link to what you’re referring to.

You show a picture of your purchase of a rerelease of the 2018 steelbook for $30.
I stand by my original statement. His best bet is going to be a restock on Best Buy or a rerelease. The secondary market prices for the original release of the Kills steelbook is not going to magically go down to $34.99 in the next few months as you initially suggested.
Look at the Who Framed Roger Rabbit 4K Steelbook released a few months ago. Sold out instantly like Halloween Kills, and it’s still selling for $75 to $110 on the secondary market.
this is the original steelbook. it’s hasn’t been re-released that I know of.
I feel bad because I understand the pain of missing something because it sold out quick.
But,
anything in this hobby you know is going to be a limited release or exclusive, WILL SELL OUT ALMOST ALWAYS.
Buy them early or have deep pockets for 2nd hand. sucks, but that’s the world of collecting.
Hopefully Best Buy restocks, not really set on spending $150 on a DVD.
Good news for those that missed out before and haven’t bought from a scalper.
Halloween Kills 4K Steelbook Zavvi Exclusive UK
Release Date: Aug 29, 2022 (This will be Live Tuesday - Jul 19, 2022 @ Noon UK Time
I was able to preorder and buy one. the steelie is worth what people will pay for it, which right now is 79 bucks, which is about the original cost of two copies, not exactly egregious for a limited release. if I were to sell it why would i ask the original price I paid when tons of people would be willing to give me more than double? most of the people on ebay and similar sites are like me and not scalping, we are just taking advantage of the market, and this is how we make a living. im not an apologist for scalpers necessarily, but there is some not so subtle irony posting this on a website where we buy masks and sell masks at unbelievable markups.
You lucked out. In addition to the UK release I posted above, Best Buy is putting out a new Kills steelbook.
Are you new to this OP?
sounds like it
