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:

MAJOR UPDATE:

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!

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

NOOOOOO!!!!! I was 5 which made me feel comfortable, now I'm 6

oh well fingers crossed

 

[Antman]

Drum just sent a PM - sadly will have to drop out of this one - just too expensive right now

But that should be good news for at least one person on the reserve list

Thanks again for the opportunity and hope the GB goes to plan!

 

[Drum18]

Sorry to hear that Ant, but truly understandable!

List updated! Oh and guys, only 1 month left to wait

And I must confess I'm stressing like a mofo! I *only* have to pick 11 and I'm not even sure if I'll be able to do it

 

[Lone Crusader]

I can see it now. You and Drum out and about trying to pick up the shelves and run into each other and start fighting over one at each shop. It reminds me of that movie 'Jingle All the Way' with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad.

That ain't Turbo Man but I can clearly see the picture!!!

Tx god, Biscuit and I are not shopping in the same stores

That's not the issue my friend. I've talked to the manager of the store close to my place and he said that he couldn't put them aside for me, even tho he did fot The Smurfs. He said 1 or 2 per customer. He told me to come when the store opens and to come back in the afternoon to get more if there are any left. That what stresses me out, to come back and find out that there are none left

 

[Drum18]

He said 1 or 2 per customer.

That is exactly what's affraid me! I'll be there, 1st in line next friday, but only then I will know what the store manager policy will be...

 

[biscuitnoir]

That's it. Which is stupid if you ask me. I belive your have all your receipts, right? and you are a paying customer, right? they clearly said "1 shelf per receipt". So why wouldn't they give them to us? I don't get it. They say "well we're tying to please as many happy customers as we can." To that I'd answer "Well me too! I have friends who count on me! They are not physically here that's all! Trust, me if they could have, they'd be all over the place."

 

[Drum18]

The problem is: Store Manager.

If you get one that is a little bit stuck up, you're screwed! As you said, I'm a paying customer and I have 5 differents bills x 7 stores. So, basically, I'm 35 customers... but that's not their thinking...

In my other life, I worked in stores and been a store manager myself, and... I have to say that I truly understand their thinking... business! The best way to do business is to keep your customer happy and keep complaints as low as possible...

Strange world, but that's their way... Only 7 days before we know...

 

[Lone Crusader]

If they had said one per customer I can understand that but from what I understand is that it is one per reciept is that correct? If that's the case then they should honor that policy. Yes, they want to keep the customer happy and your a paying customer. I would call and talk with a couple of store managers from different stores and see what they say about it and ask if they are going to honor the policy. If the managers say yes that they are going to honor the policy and you get there and a disgruntled employee says no then you can name his manager to him and say that he said he was going to honor it, should I speak to your manager to get this cleared up? He'll probably change his attatude real quick and get the shelves for you.

I know you'll do your best and I have confidence in you. Still I thank you for helping out. I am very grateful for everything your doing. Thanks.

Yes thanks Drum! Much appreciated or as they say in your knack of the woods - merci beaucoup

 

[Drum18]

My main issue is... how many units per store?
It is written on my flyer (that I kept), min. 25 per store. Let's all pray that this is correct.

Spoiler

Also,
it is clear on the bill that I'm eligible with the receipt to one box (shelf). So, with 5, I should get 5...

Spoiler

BTW, that ain't my bill, but from someone on another forum. I borrowed it since it's in English, mine are all in French.

All my receipt ready for action:

Again, you guys can trust me, I'll do MY BEST! That's why we're Ninja's right?
