Kino Video 4-disc Animated Soviet Propaganda box $11.99 at Amazon!
It looks like you can order this $89.95 Kino set from this page for $11.99, even though it's misleading. (Read the customer comment at the bottom.) I'm giving it a shot:

If you aren't familiar with the outcome of the BOGO TV Box Set issue from last year, don't be surprised if amazon ends up charging you for the 4 DVD set (or they might just send the Russian Mob to your house to swap the DVD set for the VHS tape you purchased).

For those who ordered one, did it say "Availability: Usually ships within 6 to 10 days." or was it "ships immediately?" B/C if it changed from immediately to 6 toi 10 I will read it as them correcting the mistake and not bother ordering.

I actually spotted it in the DVD Price Search daily and clicked-thru to Amazon's page.

I got this set for $46 bucks when it first came out so (if it happens) 11 bucks is a great price!
I love this set. Well researched and worth the 46 I paid. Definately worth the blind buy if you're into history - animation - other cultures.

It looks like they've discovered the error. The original page now contains a "customers who viewed this item also viewed" link to the real DVD set, but no pricing:

Looks like the jig is up...I'd be really surprised if anyone who ordered after noon today gets the DVD set instead of the VHS offering. 2 sellers are listing the DVD set for like $95.00, which is way more than I'd be willing to pay for something I may only view once.

I'm still waiting for mine to ship. I ordered it the day this was originally posted with a couple of in-stock books so I don't know what the hold up might be.
The estimated ship date is listed as September 24th-28th.
