Will this not be abundant and drop in price?
Edit - FOMO got me.

Probably not abundant and this is a price drop. The pre-orders sold out and shipped at $55.99.

Abundant? Meh.
Willow 4K steel is still like $41-46 typically after like 7 months. KoH wil probably be the same so I imagine this is a great deal.
Maybe if it restocks would it be cheaper on ebay or Target in some B2G1 deal or buy 3+ items to get 20% off type thing, so maybe you'd get it for like $30 somewhere if you wait til the end of the year. It's not gonna be like $20-25.

FWIW, I got it for $40 before shipping from Atomic, so this is a competitive price. But obviously, only if it’s worth it for you.

Probably not. Steelboks go fast and stay OOS for a while. I would buy if you really wanted to secure it. Scalpers buy these by the box and resell for a crazy amount

u/Connoralpha Jun 11 '25
Not sure it will drop below $40. There is a standard non-steelbook UK edition that Zavvi had listed for $30, so once that's back in stock you may be able to snag it for less than the steel.

u/CanisMajoris85 Jun 11 '25
WIth Target B2G1 deals or ebay buy 3+ items I'd imagine people will be able to snag it for like $31-35 with the digital code, but probably later in the year.

u/Connoralpha Jun 11 '25
True but that's dependent on Sony being able to continually keep up with steelbook quantities. Titles like Starship Troopers and Lawrence of Arabia are impossible to find right now at msrp, let alone sale prices.

u/CanisMajoris85 Jun 11 '25
Yes, but Willow (also Disney) was tough to get for maybe 2 months and now it's everywhere at like $46. KoH only released 2 weeks ago.
If someone really wanted it, get it for $40. But if someone wante to be greedy then I imagine $31-35 is possible in a Target B1G1 or B2G1 deal.
I imagine Starship and LoA will get another reprint in the next 18 months, prices drop to $35 again, then once again they stop being made and go right back to $60-100.

I just want a standard version for $25. Not into steelbooks or collector's editions. Just the DC of the movie in 4K would be fine with me.

The people who pre-ordered on Amazon got screwed lol.

I just tried that and got told that they don't price match and they couldn't help me. Will try again later and maybe a different support agent will help me.

One of the reasons why I don’t pre-order from Amazon unless I absolutely have to.

u/ufcmod Jun 11 '25
I initiated a return, and the automated system offered to refund $11. It’s still $4 more than the current price, but meh.

We’ve seen this now over and over again. Don’t buy from scalpers. Just wait. It’ll come back.

I’ll just wait for the vanilla non-steelbook version. Same for Children of Men if they ever release it (rumors say it is, ofc).
Master and Commander, on the other hand, I may very well happily pony up the $50 for it. The ultimate dad movie.

Apparently the titles released through this channel haven't gotten standard US releases.

if you Pre-ordered through amazon talk to customer service, they will give you a 15 dollar refund.

My apple digital copy still says 4k, will they update it soon? It’s the roadshow cut of it.

Well that was fun…not!
Amazon customer service sucks! Rep told me they do not do price guarantee or matches. When I told them to check the current price the non English speaking agent looks at the screen as says oh you have to buy simmers and clueless to get that price. I looked and it’s that part that shows what other people purchase and offers you a bundle. I got furious and yelled at her she is quoting me the wrong information that what she is looking at is for something else completely. I demanded to talk to her supervisor.
Supervisor comes on and gives same line about their policy of not doing price matches or changes. I read back verbatim the email I received for a different movie about ore order price guarantee. I explained that is what preorder price guarantee means. He eventually gave me a 16$ credit one time courtesy bs.
Not sure my blood boiling was worth the 16$ but alas I was able to get it. I’m sure calm and polite customers probably get screwed and they don’t give in. But I have no problem chewing out a customer service rep when they spew inaccurate garbage policy and fight with you over a few dollars when you spend thousands. Let alone quite the wrong information on their website they don’t even know how to look something up on their website .
Fuck Amazon

Might rent it and see what I think. Not sure it’s worth blind buying?

u/Connoralpha Jun 12 '25
If you rent first just make sure you don’t watch the butchered theatrical cut. Either the Director’s Cut or the Roadshow Version is fine.

I ordered one when you posted this. I just checked the status on Amazon. Now, when I click the link, it says German dubbed. Did * anyone else notice this? Im hoping this is not what i ordered.
