Well if you select standard shipping, you can get Modern Family: Season Two for $16.70, cheaper than Amazon!

Too bad It's Always Sunny: Season Six isn't on sale here! I'd definitely be buying up stuff then.

I have canceled and reordered Bones S6 BD, HIMYM S6 DVD and Modern Family S2 BD 3 times now! Though this last time HIMYM went up in price but still overall savings due to shipping. This is why I like NOT having Amazon Prime--and other stores that are slow to ship--gives a chance to cancel.

UPDATE-- Make that 4 times (Just used coupon)

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

Thanks OP and pepsiguy for that code. Can't believe how cheap those simpsons and 24 Blurays are, bought them elsewhere the last two days.

Still just picked up:
The League Season 1 $6
Kingdom of Heaven BR $7
Buffy Season 1 $8
X-files Season 5 $10
Simpsons Season 12 DVD $13

$34 after the discount. Great deal.

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

Drak_b, thanks for posting the "Balance" coupon. It worked fine. I guess that's the coupon everyone is referring to that still works? I had just over $50 in my cart before the discount. Hopefully FoxConnect won't cancel the orders once they realize they forgot to disable this coupon. What's weird is that when you get to the order confirmation page, it doesn't have a final total (just on the prior page) to be 100% sure your coupon is still there. Was is the same way for everyone else?

Can you place another order with the same coupon if you find more stuff to buy?

It looks like (unless I can call Amazon and switch for another order) I'll be returning my 24 S8 BD to Amazon when it ships and arrives because $10 per season (before coupon) is much better than $18.49 or whatever it was. This also made me upgrade my Simpsons. Now I'm going to have some brand new DVD sets to try to get rid of (24 S7, Simpsons S13 and S20). Hopefully I can get at least as much as I paid for these BDs.

Are there any other great deals? I hope people keep posting. I paged through all of the BF titles and didn't see anything that jumped out at me, but I added

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

Pffft. The only thing I want is 24 S8 so I don't get any discounts and the $5.90 shipping kills it for me.

Yes. First time I tried it wouldn't take the coupon so I used a different browser and it went through.

Cancelled 24 and simpsons that I ordered from deepdiscount yesterday and here's round 2:

24 Season 8 BR - $10
Simpsons Season 13 BR - $13
Buffy Season 2 - $8
Dressed To Kill BR -10

$31 after discount. Probably the best black friday deal yet

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

Has anyone who ordered gotten a confirmation email from FoxConnect yet? Also, did you see the order total listed anywhere on the confirmation or the email? I can't think of any other site I order from that doesn't have the total on your confirmation page, so I was wondering if that's normal (it has been more than a year since I ordered from FoxConnect).

If I get a chance to scour their site better or people post more samples of what they bought, maybe I'll place a second order, but right now there's nothing else that jumps out at me besides the Simpsons and 24 BDs. I hear people rave about Modern Family, but I've never seen it. I did skim 2 reviews which were generally positive, but when one of them mentioned it was filmed in the handheld, shakycam, documentary/reality TV style I decided against buying it until I see it someday. Nothing I hate worse than shakycam, quick cut, zoom in on the person speaking's left eye, zoom out, zoom in to their shoes, etc. Perfectly good shoes can be ruined with stuff like that. When The Office went to shakycam style I could barely tolerate it.

Did everyone create an account at Foxconnect or did you check out through Amazon?

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

How many have bought from them before? I had never heard of the site before this thread, so just curious. I am at work and for some reason can't access their site becasue of the firewalls. But with some of the prices mentioned in the thread I am definitely going to order the couple seasons of 24 and possibly a couple other things when I get home this afternoon.

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

I've ordered a few times from them in previous years, and I just used my existing account. I thought this was just Fox's online store contracted out to some company. I'm still expecting them to cancel all of these orders with the coupon, but hopefully they won't (or at least give us the option to keep the order without the coupon). I just did a second order for Ally McBeal. Now there's another series I've never seen, but I was told by several people I should buy it someday if I can. $30 for the whole series was my limit. If I get it, cool. If not, oh well. If FoxConnect cancels everything, I already have the Simpsons and 24 DVDs and 24 S8 BD is coming from Amazon. If they don't cancel, then I'll return the BD to Amazon and sell my unopened DVDs.

Many times. There's nothing to worry about; it's "Fox" as in 20th Century Fox and Fox TV.

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

I went ahead and checked out through Amazon so that I wouldn't have to create a new account. It went through without a hitch and I received a confirmation e-mail from Amazon with the $10 off of $40 discount reflected.

American Dad Volume 3
American Dad Volume 4
Simpsons 13 Blu-ray
Simpsons 20 Blu-ray


All for $32($8 a pop). Excellent deal. A big thanks, kyle.

Alright cool. That's what I wan thinking just didn't know if there wre any "horror stories" of never getting stuff or having items cancelled, etc.

Hopefully I can leave work early today and get a couple things like 24, maybe SGU, HIMYM, and a couple fo the Bones seasons for my sister.

Re: Huge Sale on Fox Connect

I'm $1 short of $40 for 1 more order. Does anyone know of any cheap filler items? If I enter "DVD" and sort by price, there's only 1 $4 item, so that way doesn't work. I don't know enough about any of the other TV seasons to blind buy them at $8.

slinkster65, I'd suggest getting an order in soon rather than waiting until after work. These are good deals with no tax, no shipping, and $10 off $40, and the coupon will die soon. The bigger question is whether they will ship all of these or cancel them for using the coupon.
