They will do these authorizations seemingly every week to every other week. If your account fails the authorization your order will be cancelled.

Good advice man! While I'm def familiar with people putting a "hold" on there temporarily, it's normally a $1 or so (from my experience). I mean I have more than enough to cover it lol, it just caught me off guard.

And oddly, I'm still not entirely sure I even want it. I just wanted to put my preorder in just in case they sell out quick.

No steelbook but the WB Shop does have an edition that comes with three action figures [Batman, Catwoman, Bane (limited too 1,000)] for $29.96

Edit: NVM, guess I should have read back a few pages.

Amazon.de has a Dark Knight Trilogy Steelbook Boxset

trust me, there are some people (not naming names) that will take pride in those figures

very cool, but $70...yeesh

It works out to about $63.50US, which sounds expensive, but $20 or more for a Steelbook is often pretty typical most places. Best Buy did have Begins and TDK (different cover art) steelbooks for cheap a few months back,but that's not what you'll usually see, and currently those are selling for $19.99 and $24.99 respectively on bestbuy.com. TDK: Rises is said to be $22.99 at Best Buy when it comes out. So if you don't have any of them, it still might be worth of a look, though the book will only serve as eye candy unless you speak German lol. It would have been cool if the outer box that held all the steelbooks was made of metal and/or something unique too. Sort of like how the Harry Potter steels got a nice case to house them at Futureshop

Ditto. Just ordered mine.

mrrebates has 4% cash back and their is a coupon code for $5 off $50 if you want to buy 2

The best buy steelbook exclusive link is dead. Nor did I see it on the search on the site.

Damn, don't know how I missed it. Thanks for the link!!
I assume it's the steelbook, yes? Since the cover is the same, minus the "w/reborn" in the product title.

Well it seems my WB exclusive set order was randomly cancelled.

I emailed WB when I saw the hold on my account, and asked them to please remove the hold and not charge me til it shipped, but it wasn't until a couple days later I realized it actually WAS a hold and not a full charge.

Apparently they cancelled the entire order instead of just emailing me telling me it was a hold.

Kinda pissed off because now that set is nowhere to be found on their site. Maybe, just maybe, it will still ship on the 4th, but I'm doubting it..because my WB account shows no order history :/

Didn't they do what you asked them to do? They removed the hold from your account by canceling your order. Why would they email you back to tell you it was a hold when you emailed them telling them to remove the hold? That would be giving you information you already had and not addressing your request.

I was unaware it was a hold at the time...I thought it was a full charge and emailed them saying their site says "preorder items will not be charged until item ships" and to remove the charge if they messed it up. NOT cancel my order.

It was only after I emailed them that I saw somewhere else on their website that they put holds on orders for a couple of days. So I gave it no thought and figured the hold would be gone in a couple days and my order would still be active.

I mean, they shouldn't be able to just cancel the order like that. An email reply saying "Sir, we apologize for any inconvenience, but we put a temporary hold on any order using a credit/debit card for a couple business days. Your account balance should credit back the charge after 2-3 days. You will not be charged again til 12/04. Thank you for being a WB customer" would have sufficed.

link is dead :(
so are they planning on release or did they cancel this exclusive package?

It sold out already I believe. It was limited to 1,000 and it looks like they're all gone now

Ordered 2 of the Best Buy steelbook, hoping at least one shows up mint since they ship in a bubble mailer. I think I got lucky with Spider-Man.

Well I just received a call from WB customer service asking me to confirm shipping info on my EXclusive Set order. Apparently it never got cancelled.

Super siked about this one. Seeing what the Inception exclusive goes for sealed now, I see this one being even rarer since 1,000 less than the Incepion were made. $$$$$$$$

Buy now or preorder? I don't understand.

The version w/ the toys? Why? The cool thing about the Inception set is it comes in the briefcase and has extra stuff.. This is just three toys
