I have already ordered mine via Play.com....
Wonder if Paramount have made a conscious decision to let only websites that post within certain territories have the Steelbook?

"Limit 1 per household."
That is not going to help on a Group Order.....

Although I wouldn't feel comfortable doing a group buy, I would have helped one or two people out. I'd have been able to get free shipping if they let me order more than one, but alas, it's not to be.

Blu-Ray SteelBooks can easily hold up to 3 discs. Once you need 4 or more discs, you have to get the Jumbo SteelBook ( ala Up, and Monsters Inc )

Secondly, I will try my best to pick up more at the store on release day. Probably only 4 additional ones. Two for trade/selling here, and two for trade/selling on blu-ray.com.

Please, do not PM me because at this time I cannot guarantee that I can get them.

That is a shame Futureshop have this policy. I am doing a group order on another forum for both the UK Star Trek steelbook and the forthcoming UK Terminator steelbook too.

Thank God Play.com do not have a restriction of one per household...

I can understand having a limit of say 5 or 10, but 1 just seems silly.

As soon as they are released theyll show up on Ebay. Maybe thatll be the route I take depending on price. I alrready have a pre order on Amazon for the movie but I realy want the steelbook to keep sealed.

Never mind, I saw a photo of the spine of the UK Fast & Furious Steelbook, it does look fat, just not as fat as the Best Buy Up Jumbo Steelbook?
