Amazon - Buy 10, Save $100 on select Blu-Ray

stingermck · 11-05-09, 07:02 AM

Stumbled across this on Amazon today, and I did not see it posted. Sorry if it has been:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=xs_gb_bd_AsB!GrJAall-?ie=UTF8&docId=1000449051&pf_rd_p=441937801&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_t=701&pf_rd_i=20&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1EZKVDS11CSFR4ZN83VT

Now through November 20, you can save up to $100 on the Blu-ray Discs listed below. We have three easy ways to save:

Buy 3, Save $20
Buy 6, Save $50
Buy 10, Save $100.

15 titles to chose from, all Universal titles. I picked up Army of Darkness, King Kong, and Van Helsing for $21 total, after discount.

Manzana · 11-05-09, 07:30 AM

Like you said, there are only 15 titles to choose from... and 1 of them is unavailable! Too bad this list is so limited that I can't find anything I want that I don't already have on SD or HD-DVD.

If you buy the 3 Fast & Furious Blu-Rays, it'd be $11.99 each, but I already have them on HD-DVD. Van Helsing, Shaun of the Dead, and King Kong for $21.97 is a great deal, but again I've already got them on HD-DVD from those Inetvideo sales around $5 each. I can't justify the re-buys even at $7.33 each since the HD-DVD and Blu-Ray will look about the same.

This sale would be better if it was for ALL blu-ray titles..

Bingo! Everyone email them and complain they need more goddamn titles on the list. This is the same thing that pissed me off last year.

That's a bingo!

Too bad I already have all the ones I want on HD DVD.

PerryD · 11-05-09, 09:22 AM

This sale is kind of crazy. Once I am able to pick out 3 titles that I'm interested in, there is no reason for me to not fill out the remaining 10 with 7 copies of King Kong since it'll only add another $7 to my total.

It will only allow you to have (3) copies of King Kong at checkout.

they are limiting it to 3 copies of each...

scarface983 · 11-05-09, 09:39 AM

i got 10 titles for $47. i had to get 2 or 3 of some titles though, i will just trade them in.

riotinmyskull · 11-05-09, 09:55 AM

10 for $52 - 6 of them i want. the other 4 i'll get $22 from wherehouse.com

$5 per title in the long run!

IamLegend · 11-05-09, 10:56 AM

watch prices on these get raised soon...

IJMSPORT · 11-05-09, 11:01 AM

I jumped on this for Pitch Black, Van Helsing & Friday Night Lights BD for $30.. damn good deal.

I'm just hoping that the prices on the three dont decrease, where I could have saved an additional 5 bucks or so, if I waited a few days.

cgray · 11-05-09, 11:06 AM

Lame that Chronicles is OOS.... but... in for 10!

It has already happened on Army of Darkness... bumped from $12.49 to $16.99. I wouldn't order it anyway (I watched it once on regular TV and found it totally stupid... not my kind of humor).

You can see that people are buying loads of King Kong and Van Helsing by the shipment date which went from in-stock to several weeks out within an hour or two. I hope by the time I trade I get mine that Wherehouse won't have dropped their price to squat being flooded by others doing the same because I only want 1 of each. I just couldn't justify buying more than 3 titles from this sale, even though they work out to only $7.99 or $9.99 each, because they would be re-buys. I can justify King Kong and Van Helsing if I can trade it to the Wherehouse and end up having paid $12 for both.

JackBurton · 11-05-09, 11:25 AM

$4.29 each for mine. A few Christmas presents, a few to trade/trade-in and AOD, KK & SotD for me. Thanks, OP!

You can go out to Target(90 day return policy) and buy Van Helsing and King Kong now and do your Wherehouse/FYE trade-in before the market gets flooded. When your Amazon order arrives, simply return those to Target for a refund. A little extra leg work, but well worth it.

Sweet Baby James · 11-05-09, 11:59 AM

To make this deal even sweeter(literally), don't forget to use the $5 candy coupon that's included with Army of Darkness, Van Helsing and Shaun of the Dead. You get $5 off of any candy purchase at many chains across the country, including Target and Wal*Mart. The coupon expires on November 30.

blokhed · 11-05-09, 12:08 PM

Good deal. Finally picked up Shaun and Pitch Black, and snagged a few others for gifts.

my delivery estimate is december 2nd...so that probably won't be happening.

GizmoDVD · 11-05-09, 12:37 PM

Meh. Have all on HD DVD and not really worth $10 to replace them with Blu-ray cases. Maybe if the selection was better I'd choice upgrade a few.

Same here!!

SPIDERone · 11-05-09, 01:19 PM

I have most of them on HDDVD also - I wanted to 'upgrade' a few of them, but even the $45 for 6 was too much considering all of the other recent sales (BB & Amazon + preorders). I just can't afford it!

RobCA · 11-05-09, 03:38 PM

There's not a single thing on that extensive list

I'm remotely interested in.

(he said, breathing a sigh of relief)

jiggawhat · 11-05-09, 03:49 PM

Great, now I can get rid of some more HD-DVDs and get the better versions with lossless. (Plus get a tax writeoff, if the library will take em)

Thanks OP!
