They are selling out so fast, even with that high price tag.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/233168080607

Steelbook even looks almost like the EU one.

That offer is not just the steelbook. You also get the game and postcards.
Would be insane if it were just for the steelbook.

Most people do get it for the steelbook though. You can get the game much cheaper now and those postcards are not worth much.

Of course. Just wanted to point out that the price is that high, not because they try to totally rip off people, but because you get all that stuff too.

Ah, why would it be insane?
There are steelbooks (only steelbooks) selling for double and more, so...?

I totally disagree, a SteelBook only with price over 100+ euro it's very expensive, a logical price must start from around 15 euro to 50 max! Also the quality of these in the latest releases has dropped dramatically (many manufacturing problems).

I didnt said i agreed or disagreed, i just said what happens in the market.
It is not that unusual for steelbooks to be sold at 200€ and more

For me, the most pricey steel (only) I've ever bought was $175, and the most pricey steel I've ever sold was $150 so this won't surprise me at all.

By the way I bought this TW edition on ebay and it arrived today and looks great. I totally love it.

I could understand a price of 100+ for a steelbook that is basically not for sale anymore and has rarely listings on eBay.
For example some "very rare" Final Fantasy steelbooks. But DMC5 just came out and it's not like you can't find this particular one anymore.
So I certainly wouldn't pay so much, if it were just for the steel on it's own.

The Last Of Us Taiwan Edition Steelbook still sells for 175/200€ (sealed with game)
Yakuza Kiwami 2 GEO steelbook still sells for 120€ (unsealed with out game)
GOW Omega Edition still sells for 80€ (open with games)

And these arent even the most expensive ones, just using them as an example as why i dont think is surprising that this particular steelbook ends up selling at 120€ just the steelbok.
