Thanks for posting.
Can someone answer me this? I've got this on pre-order for $74.95 through Amazon. I know about their pre-order guarantee. My question is should I cancel my order and re-up at the better price, or trust that Amazon's system will automatically catch and release the better price upon shipping?
Danke.

Does anybody know... with pre-orders since they ship it to get to you by release date, is there much of a difference in choosing Standard Shipping over Super Saver Shipping?

Thanks this is cheaper then Family Video who had it for about $64. Hopefully I can get them to cancel my pre-order. I placed an order with Amazon in case the price increases later.
If you have a Bill Me Later account you can use coupon BMLSAVES to knock another $5 off the price.

You figure it to be about 20 bucks a movie which is a fair price for these movies. Especially if the newly restored lives up to the hope and hype I have read. The Die Hard series was going for over 80 when it dropped so I feel that we're getting a good deal here.

I ordered it a few hours back when I first spotted this topic. I just checked. It went BACK to $74.95. What is it with these guys? They lower the price for a couple of hours then back up and then can't do the 30 day price match any more? And I have to pay NYS tax. I also added the BMLSAVES so altogether my price is $58.49.

Emailed FV with a cancellation request and around 15 minutes later received a response that a refund will be issued. It'd sure be nice if the response time from DD was that fast. Or, better yet, if both offered a "Cancel" button like Amazon.
Anyway, glad to get in on this price. Thanks OP.

I really thought it would last longer than a few hours...There would have been no harm in just placing the pre-order I suppose. Oh well, I've never seen any of them, but I wanted my first time to be in HD. If it happened once it's bound to happen again aye?

Got it with the Bill Me Later discount at the price mention in the first posted. Glad I didn't wait to first cancel my Borders order. Received cancellation e-mail from Borders this morning. All is good. Thanks OP for this great deal. I am sure there will be many deals on this set this season . Remember Black Friday will be here before you know it. For those in the NYC area, the Film Forum is screening the restored first 2 Godfather movies starting today through October 2. My guess is other cities will or have already seen these restored versions.

Hmmm, the old price was $74.95. It was lowered to $61.95. Then raised to $87.95. The low price was $13.00 less than the original and the new price was $13.00 more. Maybe an order went out to raise the price by $13.00 and it got accidentally lowered by that amount instead.
Anyway, glad I got it at the low price yesterday.
