I don't spend much on vacation. I go to the ocean with friends to relax and have a good time. A couple weeks of saving does just fine. Don't be a dickhead.

The structure of the new Amazon pricing system is too tedious for me to wade through (I think they automated it somehow). So I am going to hang up my keyboard and discontinue the lists (I've been at it for more than a year and a half, so it is time anyway). But I may post interesting deals I happen to notice and hope that others will do the same.
Just to show you how crazy the new pricing is:
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (Blu-ray/DVD Combo + UltraViolet Digital Copy) (Pre-order) $24.96 [Save 3¢ over the previous low. Whoopee.]

That's too bad. Thanks for what you were doing.
Maybe they are trying something new only for a little while. Maybe it will go back to normal.

I wouldn't continue to do it either under these circumstances.
As a frequenter of amazon.com and this thread, I am grateful to lizard for all of his efforts in helping us find good deals on movies.

A thanks to Lizard for his efforts. I don't blame you for stopping here; these new price drops are just a little ridiculous.

Thanks to Lizard for the continued hard work. I know just from filling in for a week or so that it can be a headache haha.

I don't even enjoy looking at my cart anymore with all these penny raises and reductions. Do they really think this is encouraging more business? It's like dickering at a garage sale.

I do wonder what they were thinking when they decided to do this.

No one can blame you for not wanting to continue the updates. Thanks for all the hard work! So what do plan on doing now that you're retired? Moving to Florida?

Yes, thank you Lizard! I checked everyday. I do not blame you for stopping. Visiting my cart and seeing the decreases and increases of a few pennies is insanely annoying now.

I'll chime in with another thanks to lizard for his efforts. I didn't visit this thread on a daily basis, but would frequently popped in from time to time to scan his latest post for current deals.

Still too much for me, but Real Steel just hit a new low at $20.76.

Hey Lizard,
Don't worry about it. You've saved me A LOT OF TIME and MONEY with your posts. I don't blame you for stepping back this time. You're a good deal-hunter pal.

Yes! Thank you so much for tackling this for such a long time. I thank you. My wallet doesn't.

All I know is that I never have time to dig on Amazon for lower prices or search particular titles, so the only way I know if a title dropped to a price I want to buy is from your posts. If you can't do them any more because of Amazon's tinkering, then Amazon has pretty much removed the possibility of me buying any BDs from them unless it's posted by someone else here or on Slickdeals.
