Actually I applied for the co-branded Buy.com-Visa card for the immediate $30 credit, and got the Maggie head plus "Mary Tyler Moore: Complete Season 4" for a total of $6.86 shipped. (I'll be closing out my Amazon Visa account due to the recent pricing fiasco after they try to charge the card again on the 28th.)

Thanks, I'm in! This was actually the only "head" version I didn't have. I bought the regular version at Target on black friday but never opened it, so now I can unload that one...

I wonder how many orders got through and shipped before they caught the mistake? Would have been a nice deal though!

If you need more than one set, you can do as well at Barnes and Noble. Place a ship to home order at the store, use the 15% off coupon and it'll come to $16.98 per set (even less if you're a member).

Shows $36 at B&N.com for me (pre 15% discount). You are saying an in-store order will be much less?

I believe Doc is saying that with B&N buy 1 get one free sale it will equal out to about $17-$18 per set (depending on the 15% discount).

Set#1 $36.xx
Set#2 $0.00

2 divided by $36= $18 per set!

Right, but you have to place a ship to home order in a Barnes and Noble store to get the lower price, becuase the sets aren't part of the B2G1F offer online. Please see the B&N thread for a more detailed explanation of how this process works.

But anyway, I was able to get the Season 8 Maggie head and the Season 9 Lisa head for about $15 each (I am a member and was using a $10 off coupon that has since expired).

I'm going to cry... My order was cancelled this morning. They had a problem with the credit card supposedly, and emailed me to update it. But I had set up a new email to use with google checkout, so never saw the email until just now. AARRRGGGGHHHH!!! I really needed this set, too. It was the only head I'm missing...
