Have you not read the points that have been made lots of times in lots of posts from lots of people including TT themselves ?tele1962 said:I can not see for the life off me why TT has to charge these ridiculously high prices for what after all are bear bones releases.
The RRP of TT releases are similar to the RRP of most other companies . But other companies don't limit the release to just 3000 units.
Because there are only 3000 all of the TT stock can be sold by a couple of sites only so the competition is non existent hence no discounting.
A standard release from most other companies won't be a limited edition so copies are supplied to every retailer who wants them who then cut the margins to the bone to compete with other sites.
Months down the line ( or weeks if you're Arrow or Network) prices drop like a stone to the sort of prices that many punters expect to pay for all their purchases all the time .
Obviously if nobody wanted to pay more than these heavily discounted prices the market would struggle .
It seems that some studios have lost faith in catalogue titles and Bluray in general hence not wanting to release the titles themselves .
Although some seem more confident to sell in non US markets .
