Walmart.com Andromeda Slipstream 78.97 + tax
I thought this was pretty good price as the cheapest i have seen it was $80 at Deep Discounts 20% sale. However, I believe DeepDiscount and DVDPlanet no longer carry the set. For those unaware this is all 5 seasons of the series...

*EDIT* BTW shipping should be free with site to store shipping.

Just a note, I've ordered this title 3 times from them site to store, and the first two times it has arrived completely demolished (they ship it there in a plastic envelope). Plus, my store doesn't know how to use a computer, so it takes about a half an hour to get refunded (which they gave cash instead of back onto the card). I actually just ordered it a third time out of curiosity more than anything.

I ordered this awhile back and it came in a box but the case was broken apart. Kinda pissed me off but the DVD's were OK so I just kept the set.
I wonder if they're just shipping the same set to everyone. If so, I got the damaged set, so maybe it's OK to order now or maybe they are all damaged.

I had one shipped from Amazon and the box had a substantial split in it. In the end, I kept the set. I suppose the cardboard is flimsy and the weight of the discs are contributing to the splitting .

Well, my 3rd set came today, still opened and one corner ripped apart, but it's the best one yet so I kept it. Went to a different store this time, and they didn't have their crap together on this site-to-store thing either, so I won't be bothering with that ever again.

And yeah, I think I will just keep this one, and reinforce the box on the inside with some tape or something. It is a flimsy case. I need to go through and check all the disc's today.
Now, hopefully the show doesn't suck as bad as the shipping...

Mine arrived on Friday(8/3) and I ordered on the 8/1. That is the fastest i have ever gotten anything for in store pickup at walmart. I expected the worst, but to my pleasant surprise it arrived in satisfactory condition. Only a slight tear in one of the corners and some slight impressions on the box. Guess I got real lucky.
