Well I might pickup a few Mystery Science Theater 3K sets.

If you can believe it, noir is referring to this post from over a year ago:

Top 10 Movies 2000-Present

Pretty much the only interaction I have ever had with you and you never forgot. I did forget this tiny little moment in time but your comment made me recall something along these lines but I wasnt sure it was you, I remembered once where it was me either making fun of a deal or your fondness of a certain movie. Up popped that thread. You gotta be kidding me dude.

Give me a break! It worked out this time, there are plenty of other times it hasn't for people and they've been stuck not knowing where an order stands. I'd call it more luck then anything else.

Ruderic · 07-15-09, 09:14 PM

Hey the 25% may not be the best for all DVDs but there are still some good deals. Just compare with other sites and see if its worth it or not.

Succinctly put. Could we just make this a sticky at the top of the thread and get on with it already?

Tenkyoken · 07-15-09, 09:30 PM

Are you guys seriously fighting over taking advantage of a glitch in the system? You benefited from a mistake Jacoby good for you. This sale will be on in full force in just 2 days so it's really nothing to be proud of. As they say move on with your lives.

As I recall with their last sale, when the codes went live the prices automatically increased on many discs that weren't increased previously.

Probably every DVD on the site is in someone's wish list.

That's just too freakin' high. There's ten titles I plan on picking up on friday from DD, but it looks like Im going to buy John Adams from walmart .com for $21.86

kenbuzz · 07-15-09, 11:43 PM

Ummm..... John Adams has been 51.56 in my cart for 3 days now. Are you guys confusing the SD and BD versions?

DD: SD = 51.56 BD = 63.49
WM: SD = 21.86 BD = 46.32

Why do I see y'all comparing the 63.49 price with the 21.86 price?

Doctor Gonzo · 07-16-09, 12:53 AM

Why drop $51.56 when you can spend only $21.86? (for SD that is)

I checked a copy out of my library for free.

JoeySeven · 07-16-09, 04:41 AM

Less then 24 hours away....

I'm kind of on the fence for this sale.

There are certain movie I want On blu-ray,but if the price isn't right.
I can wait to get them.

And I went crazy at the B&N criterion sale.
I have enough movies to watch for the next year now.

rmick · 07-16-09, 08:04 AM

This is probably somewhere in the thread, but....

What time does this traditionally start? Midnight tonight or sometime tomorrow morning?

stingermck · 07-16-09, 08:22 AM

Like usual, I'm using the sale to pick up new releases I was going to get anyway. I got lucky that it falls under BSG's release.

lareineblanche · 07-16-09, 08:22 AM

maybe it is discussed somewhere, I don't know; But I seem to remember it starting Thursday in the late afternoon in some previous instances. Anyone?

I remember it always starting early, like the evening before the announced date.

Nate the Great · 07-16-09, 09:40 AM

Y'know, something I noticed today. By now, there's a whole host of codes that come out - YAHOO, XM, LATIMES, etc. - for use in the sale. And as it stands, there've only been two that have been verified, and those may end up not working (possibly) because of the abuse of glitches in the DD system.

Am I missing something? There's by no means a plethora of codes being made known, and with the sale starting tomorrow, I find that quite odd.

bsmith · 07-16-09, 10:27 AM

I don't think the codes are ever formally advertised until the sale actually starts. Once it starts the codes will be stated to everyone and not before. It's just that many of the codes don't change from year to year so most are already aware of what they will be.

I noticed last night that my DD cart was cleared (fortunately all my selections for this go around are in my wish list). I seem to recall this always happens just before the sale starts.

My cart always clears whenever I log out of DD.

Mine doesn't.

Cheato · 07-16-09, 11:15 AM

Mine, neither. In fact, DD sent me a reminder email one time that there were things still in my cart.

bis22 · 07-16-09, 11:18 AM

Was going to order Flight of the Conchords s1, but it's $5 more expensive than usual...
