Quality
Steelbooks are easily damaged - how do I know I will receive something in good condition?
We inspect all Steelbooks before detailing them on our site. We have confidence that all items we sell are free from scratches, dents or spine slashes, except where specifically noted on a product information page.
Please note we do not remove shrink-wrap in order to inspect Steelbooks, so we are only reasonably able to inspect those parts of the Steelbook that are not covered or obscured by a slip cover or J-card. We do sell all items in good faith
All our Steelbooks are sent well protected by bubble wrap and in a shipping box to ensure they reach you in a great condition.
Are your items new?
Yes, all items on our site are brand new and in the original packaging including shrink-wrap.
The only exceptions to this are clearly marked as part of the description, and all sit in the Used or Reduced categories on our site.
Other Questions
I see on the photo that an item includes a digital download/digital version/ultraviolet code, etc - will I be able to use this?
The short answer is maybe however we do not warrant that any digital codes will be usable for several reasons :
- Codes are often time limited, and the activation time for the code may have passed before your purchase.
- Codes are often region restricted and you may not be able to use it where you live when purchasing something that was sourced from another region
- Some services have been deprecated (eg - Ultraviolet) and you are no longer able to use them.
I can see a scratch or other blemish in the photos for an item I'd like to buy.
Metal Movies do not use stock images for Steelbook releases, we use images of the actual stock we hold. Some common things to note are :
- Shrink-wrap can often be scratched, crinkled or creased which can make it look like the Steelbook itself is. This isn't the case - our product pages will always detail where we have noted damage to the Steelbook itself.
- The slip cover/J-Card/information sheet with the Steelbook looks to be blemished or has small circular stains on it. This is caused by the glue used to attach it to the Steelbook bleeding into the cardboard. Unfortunately it happens often and can't be removed, however the same will not happen to the cover of the Steelbook itself.
