Regarding the strange pricing at Amazon, it appears that it's on MGM titles(Showgirls, Rocky, Dead Like Me). I think that I'll do an MGM search at Amazon and see if there are any other good deals to be had. Thanks OP for the heads up.

Very strange. I ordered one just in case they actually ship it (though I doubt it). Thanks once again x
One thing though, like the Rocky one, when I got to the page, at the top it said ships in 6 to 12 days... Is this because so many have ordered it and now it's sort of backordered or something?

Delivery estimate: April 19, 2006 - April 26, 2006

Looks like I got in on this too late. Amazon removed Showgirls from my order, and then tried to stick me for shipping on the other two DVDs that I purchased to get the free shipping. Nice try, Amazon.
