Stolen goods or not , they ain't having my copy back and can kiss my ass !Technically, if it has been removed from sale for somewhat dubious reasons, anyone that bought it could then be said to be handling stolen goods :/
Just saying.
Unlikely to go far wrong if you check the STEELBOOK PRICE DROP/ BACK IN STOCK/ON SALE/SOLD OUT ALERT thread at least once a day as members are very good in posting not just price drops but also "live" alerts and similar info.

So ordered this a couple of weeks ago, but only just opened it. Didn't realise the story behind these steels...just seen one on the bay for £125! Paid £7 lol not for the investment but I liked the film, not a bad steel either.

Can I ask where you found it for £7? Amazon cancelled my pre-order for this steel with no explanation and as I hadn't been following this thread, gutted I've missed out...
Obvious answer would be a "Yes" but only if it comes back and "No, keep it sealed" if it doesn't.Received mine today, now the question, Do I open it?
Is that a vertical scratch on the back of the SteelBook (on the right), or is that an intentional part of the design? It can also be seen when the J-card is attached. Looks out of place.
As for Virkia's story - It seems a bit strange that the Amazon seller is from the Netherlands, but the SteelBook has the BBFC logo on to denote a UK release. Why would a Dutchman have stock of a British release that we all know was cancelled by the retailers that were due to stock it? If these were indeed acquired illegally, then surely listing on Amazon is a silly thing to do. He probably would have gotten more money by listing them one at a time on eBay. In this instance, as these are fulfilled by Amazon, what action would authorities take? Could they investigate Amazon for the handling of suspected stolen goods? Are we all to expect a knock at the door at some point, even though we legitimately purchased the items?
