Anybody recall the price of the Korean 'T2' at pre-order? Now it's a very respectable GBP 75 - 80 on the auction site.
I refuse however to break the habit of only buying U.K., no matter how desirable the chunk of steel is, by buying from abroad because that might be a slippery slope and as a collector I'd probably end up hunting for a complete set of steelbooks from that country. . . and of course there's the problem of shelf space apart from the cost. . .
On the other hand I hope that the upcoming Zavvi will have embossing/debossing on the front image to give it some depth and all the bells and whistles to make it a worthy successor to the 2009 edition.
