Harry Potter 7.2 Steelbook for GB:

Spoiler

ALL of them have been verified in store to be sure they are 100% dent/scratches free! I had the choice so I did pick the best looking! Damn wrapping doesn't help to verify, but that's been the same on all HP steelbook release.

Harry Potter Box for GB:

IMPORTANT INFO:
This exclusive boxset pre-sale is on NOVEMBER 11th, but I will only get the actual item on DECEMBER 16th. This is in LIMITED QUANTITY so first come, first served! I will limit ONE PER PERSON so that a lot of you guys get one.

How to get on the list?
Show your interest by posting here AND I will need payment for AT LEAST Harry Potter 7.2. You cannot get the boxset WITHOUT buying at least 7.2. I'm giving you the opportunity to get the other Harry Potter steel and others from Canada too. Limited to 20.

I'm interested in a lot of steel, do I need to pay right now?
If you want me to hold off item that are already out, YES so that I can secure them for you. As of right now, HP steelz are really easy to find, but trust me, with the Christmas season coming along, those are gonna sell FAST!!!

What about shipping?
This is REALLY a big thing! By committing here, you AGREE that the shipping cost WILL be important! We are talking about a box that holds 8 steelz, so you have to imagine the size of it! The weight will also be significant!
Shipping cost WILL be at COST! I will give you a specific amount as soon as I got the item in hand!
International buyers, be aware that shipping with Canada Post is expensive!!!

So, what's the cost?
As of right now, the cost is only for the steel BUT you have to add the following:
- Shipping (at cost)
- Boxing materials: 10$ per order
- Paypal fees 4% on the total
- Tipp (YES I'm doing all this at cost, but I consider my work deserves some consideration)


IMPORTANT FINAL NOTE:
This item is going to be REALLY rare and hard to find. That is why I'm doing that GB, but since Future Shop isn't really clear about all this, IF unfortunately I cannot get all the boxset that I take pre-order for it, you agree that it is NOT my fault. I will follow the list that will be listed here in that particular order.
Ok guys, back from my tour at stores. Yes, I said storeS because to avoid problem on December 16th, I did went to 7 different stores in Montreal. I will do the same tour early on Dec.16th to try my best to get my hands on the most boxset possible!

It is important to understand that it's it REALLY not clear from Future Shop the number of box they will receive. This morning, each store had about 40 copies of the steelbook. It is written in the flyer and on the bills (damn I have a lot of these...) that it is limited quantity while supply last. I bought a lot more steelz than necessery, but once again, only time will say if I can get enought box.
Once again, thanks for your understanding!

Thanks guys for your support and understanding!

That was quite a ride today, but I truly tought that by buying the steelz today would have given me for each of them, a specific number for reservation, like it was mentionned in the flyer (about a code or something). Now on the bill, it only says that it's limited quantity, while supply last...

I tought that today would be the complicated part and that on Dec. 16th, it would only by a pick-them-up day. That would have given each store about 1 month to see how many units exactly they would have on pre-order. For game pre-order, they even take our phone # and name.

So biscuit, maybe we'll meet on Dec. 16th on the rush-to-the-store-like-crazy-1-week-before-christmas...

Probably yeah, although I'm going to stick to the store close to my place. I know the clerks there so I'm going to call in advance to reserve as many boxes as I can. But hey, if you need help, let me know

 

[Drum18]

But hey, if you need help, let me know

The call I was waiting for!!!

 

[manutd123]

I've read somewhere that its one per receipt, with a free code representing one only, thus people have been buying one at a time and obtaining multiple receipts. Can anyone confirm this?

Hey!
It is one per receipt, so imagine how many receipt I've got
The problem as I'm saying is that there is NO code on the receipt, only the procedure at the cash and the sku of the item. I would have wanted to have a specific code per receipt so that it secure at the store my receipt to one box.

Yep, one per receipt, and no code on the receipts either so luck is going to play its role December 16th.

Trust me, I'm trying

Oh well, I'll just go on release day and cross my fingers and toes.

 

[Jason Bourne]

i bought 5 sets with 5 different receipts and I'm just gonna go early to FS on the 16th and hope I get all five.... I really don't think it should be a problem if you arrive 15-20 minutes before opening. I felt like a mad man walking out with 5 sets of 8 steel books each, lol.

 

[biscuitnoir]

Holly Molly, 5 sets, that's $1000+ !

 

[sutti69]

Hery Drum...I say hire 7 peolple (1 for each store) and pay them $10 to go pick them up at opening and we'll divide it by the 20 buyers.

That's only another 3.5 apiece to pretty much guaranty a copy.

lol, yeah it was a lot of dough. One set is mine and the other my sisters. The other three I bought for x-mas gift purposes. Really I just wanted to have spares in case. I might return them if they don't get gifted or sell them off. Im sure there will be buyers for the entire sets online once there all sold out, lol.

Tom, that's exactly the problem here. Even if I hire people, I'm not sure in store, they will let us have more than 1 per customer. I may have separate bills, it is still they right to restrain that...
That is why I've been to several stores, to be sure to have good chances

We'll have to wait and see.

 

[blu-steel]

Can't believe I missed this one. Oh well. Would love to get that 7.2 and box.

Yeah... theyr'e funny like that...just a thought.

Was thinking more like by the time you get to the 7th store they'll be gone.

 

[LoStAlIvE]

Does anyone know what it is made of? Is it cardboard, molded plastic, or metal?
I would love to get one but if all it is made out of is cardboard.

Man Drum18 you are doing a FANTASTIC job!!!

 

[Grapey]

Drum - you are truly awesome! Your efforts in trying to get these for everyone is truly commendable.

 

[ash333]

Hear, hear +1

Thanks Marc for the extra effort above and beyond the call!

 

[bifis]

Thanks mate for everything....!!!!!

 

[LoStAlIvE]

I would love for you to get me one but right now I think I am going to take my chances on ebay.
Drum if you happen to get an extra one I will buy it from you but I know I just is going to happen but if it does please remember me.

Don't you worry, if, and only ifffff, I manage to get more, I will def. post here first!!!

Note to self:
Don't forget to grab the first one for you Drum... please remember that!
