They're being sold all over Europe and Australia

I would recommend searching ebay.fr for them as french steelbook sellers are usually ok to deal with, Germany's ok as well

Maybe this one?

Just be sure to ask for bubble wrap etc.

My bad then, I didn't realize, I like this one better, plus hopefully it's G2 size for my PS3 collection because ME3 and AC3 stand out so much -___-

The one I linked to is a little expensive imo but not overly so

If you could get it for 20 Euro or less shipped then it's a good price

Really depends how long you want to look/wait for one

I find these prices insane for how common they really are. Hell I sold my GoW Ascension Steel for almost $20 (shipped) and I was listing it much less then most (I don't like overly gouging the price on things for a couple reasons.... morality it eh biggest but also I would want the same done when i want something... plus i want it to sell fast which is more of a by product of listing it more one the fair side).

I may pass unless I find someone on the forum that would be willing to get me one and only make a few dollars of me for their trouble...

If you get a spare and don't mind selling it for a fair price please let me know, I would be very grateful and would return the favor in the future when we get something exclusive.

I saw the cheapest FS one on eBay is like $54 OBO... that is insane to me.

54 USD for a FS steel is insane

Steelbooks are a funny thing, prices fluctuate like mad and so much more

But i would say a fair price for a steelbook is 15 - 20 USD, shipping not included

Will always depend on the market of course but they ain't too cheap

I've been slowly getting FS steels for 15 USD shipped which I quite like

A lot easier with them all being sealed now. Means almost every copy is mint

I'm with Swift on this one. I just wait out the initial mad rush for the steel and wait for the prices to die down around the $15-20 price range for an empty steel.

Yep only reason a steel becomes worth more than that is because it's hard to get

Steels really aren't that limited compared to other things

Still love them like mad though
