Here we go again 

This is already in the database as 094922-410917; which is the UPC on the label under "Free SteelBook Case with UP Pre-Order".

But 786936791068 is for the four disc set NOT the any kind of Steelbook. We don't track cases per se bigdog, this is something local and not Contributable, unless the Steelbook has its own UPC. It is not sold as anything but a blank case, which based on past experience with Disney it may not have.

The way the Steelbook usually works is that you can get it with a Pre-Order of ANY copy of Up, vene if it is only with a Blu-Ray purchase, there are still two Blu-Ray releases neither of which use the Steelbook case AS SOLD. Since it is a blank case that contains nothing, if you want ity in your collection then it can ONLY be locally as there is nothing to use for it.Sorry, bud.

That is correct I did have a typo in the UPC for the 4 disc BD set as others have mentioned. The reason I asked about which barcode to "use" was that on the steelbox it does have 3 unique UPC codes on there, one for the case itself and then 2 others for the different versions of the movie which (atleast for the BD one) is not the same as what is on the slipcase. I don't really care which one is the "approved" ones I just wanted to make sure that is the one I use in my database so it gets updated if/when necessary.  So if the "correct" one to use is the one on the slipcase, fine I'll go with that one then, just wanted to be sure.

Thanks

OK Big, let me try and explain what I understand of as your description and the possible complications of allowing the Steelbook as a Contribution.

The Steel has 3 UPCs one for itself and two more for the two that it is intended to be matched to.

Now, you can't make a Contribution of the set that you bought using the UPC for the SteelBook, let's say you bought the 4-Disc, That then closes the door to the user who bought the 2-Disc BD. He wants his in the Online TOO. The ONLY answer that comes to mind, and this won't work either, would be a Disc ID style of entry. But eventhere if they used the same BD Disc in both the  4-Disc set and the other one we are screwed as usual. Which would leave no POSSIBILITY of one Disc ID entry and no entry using the Steelbook UPC, though I am sure how you feel about this, it is the ONLY system we have, and it really WON'T allow for both uses of the Steelbook case. I think it is probably best left as local handling.

Looking at the cover scans for Snow White, which was released this same way, I see what you are saying and you should use the UPC for the case to create the profile.  While I don't like profiles for cases, if we are going to do it, that would be the best way.

If you are going to use the one on the slipcase, you can't submit scans of the steelbook.

agree, the other two UPC's are for the preorder of the blu-ray and dvd. You could also buy the Steelbook seperatly (for $15) in which case just the steelbook upc would be scanned. (there is text right by each upc that says what the upc is for)

That would actually make it worse, then what gets the profile the set you buy or the Steelbook extra, the steelbook is Bonus and we don't track cases or bonuses, it SHOULD be handled locally, because not everyone will get the steelbook. I can think of some things that I would like Disney to do in the future but they don't listen to li'l ole me. IF they had a specific UPC for each of sets that were involved in the deal, this UPC uses this UPC on the Steelbook, this other UPC goes witgh the other one, then we have a different ballgame, but one bonus for multiple product possibilities is just a mess.

Snow White while not a direct comparison since the steelbook did not have a UPC is an example of kind of havoc can be created. There were 5 or 6 separate versions Snow White and the Steelbook could have been had with ANY Snow White purchase, not just the BD...which one would get the Steelbook.

While I am continuing to mull this conundrum, big, I think for the moment it has to be just a local issue.
