This is my first sale here so be gentle with me! lol. Please also note I'll be tied up fo the next two weeks so I wouldn't accept a payment until I can ship your items. This would be around the 15th. Postage would be £15 (£5 within UK!) in Europe including tracking/insurance for larger items or £5 (£2 within UK!) for smaller items including tracking/insurance within Europe. I am happy to do trades but I would only be interested in prototype/beta material. If you would like me to hold something until you've got money that I am happy with also. I'm also happy to do discounts if buying multiple item's. I've got a couple of PS3 Press Kit's don't know much about them other then these one's are pretty hard to get. All recent sales for these have been for more then I am asking. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune PS3 Press kit. Asking Price: £180 Notes: There is a slight dent on one corner. This kit is also missing a second disk but this is normal as apparently they didn't make enough to go in all the kits. The price reflects this. Resistance 2 PS3 Press kit. Asking price: £60 Notes: Pretty cool note is each metal tin is unique in the fact the rust pattern is never the same. Heavy Rain Origami kit. (x2) Asking Price: Not sure on a price so if you buy something from me you can have one free. Resistance 3 PS3 Promo disk. Asking Price: £5 Payments would be via paypal (must be verified) and buyer is to send payment via gift or pay fee's if sending as a normal payment. Any questions please feel free to ask thanks!
Not buying, but seriously! How the hell are these press kits a thing that only the press gets but aren't sold as special editions?!
No clue but these are pretty cool these are the only one's I've had and there's some cool bits that set them aside. Would rather this with a special disk then half the special editions.
For real! Even from stuff like this you can see that people are completely willing to pay money for these press editions! If anything I would think the press edition would be a bare bones disc, like a review disc, and that these press editions would be special editions for sale.
These ones do not sadly. Some do contain a promo version but in the case of these they only come with assets on the disk like psd's/concept art/videos/etc and letters to the press. I've included a few screenshots of the sort of stuff you might find on disk below. (Without spoiling to much forr the buyer! ) Folder list:
Because they're press kits intended to grab a reviewer's attention. In a pile of discs often without covers, you're going to notice a biscuit tin. It's a strategy that has been used for decades in the music industry. If they were to release the item as a limited edition, it would be just another retail item on your desk for a reviewer, albeit slightly cooler. Nowadays, there's the added benefit that you can sell it for a crazy price lol
