The steelbook won't be offered in UK, it will be offered in Australia then what are you complaining about?

I'm not concerned about the cost of my steelbook. I got mine at a reasonable price, so your comment is irrelevant. On the flip side, I don't see why the exclusivity and desirability of an item I have should suffer because a company has decided to do a reprint on an exclusive item.
My concern is with regards to the blatent false advertisement of the item on the Steelbook website. People were quick enough to complain about the "limited numbered" releases of various Gearbox CEs and the false advertisement, so how is this any different? That is just one example, I am sure there are other examples of false advertisement where people have been mislead and complained about.
Again, what I am complaining about is the fact that it has been advertised as an "E3 Exclusive" item, then made available for general release. It is misleading and has made an item desirable on the premise that it is exclusive, then it has been made readily available for another market? I don't understand how you don't see anything wrong with this practice?
Let's put it another way:-What if this item had been a collectible statue advertised with a closed print run and they decided to make a second release of the same statue on another production run number because it is desirable. It is exactly the same as the original run statue, but because it was being sold in a different country this makes it right?
Your logic is flawed!
