Re: Amazon Blu-ray Discounts and Deals Thread #27

I know amazon was shipping the partly fixed version for the single disc release when I got mine in February. No idea whether the box set is also updated.

It certainly wasn't a deal breaker for me, but it is pretty astonishing that they would release a 'fixed' version and still get it wrong.

Oh, they got the real people to play themselves! I had previously dismissed this as just another cartoon; I had no idea the lengths they would go for authenticity.

Good thought, but between the value of the trade-in (at least 50 cents) plus nearly 10% sales tax, I figure I'll still come out ahead with Amazon (and won't have to leave the house).

Pretty good deal on some other Disney combo packs for those interested: Chronicles of Narnia The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe and Pirates of the Caribbean (first three movies) for $11.99 each.

Music Man's not quite the night and day that White Christmas was, but it does look easily far superior to the DVD.

Any idea how long that OUaT coupon will be up? I want to hold off and see if it shows up in my goldbox. I looked, but couldn't find a date, but I thought they posted dates on coupons before.

Always loved "The Music Man" I remember being a little kid in the 60's and mom would put on this album for me to take a nap to in the afternoon.

FYI, yesterday I bought THIS in an effort to get Once Upon a Time into my Gold Box, and it worked! Now I went back and canceled Mirror, Mirror since I didn't really want it.

Was just coming here to post that.

Picked up parts two and three now. (I got Black Pearl from the Disney Movie Club). Also tossed in The Odessa File and Tora X 3 for $10 each. (So much for my statement that I was done buying the Fox digibooks).

I love amazon.

My wallet hates amazon.
