Thanks OP, wallet is now $70 lighter, but got some great "dorm" type titles (nothing brings a suite together like "My Baby's Dady").

I think the offer to get that $10 expired, but not sure about the coupon itself.

If you signed up for Overstock Auctions, they credited your account with a $10 coupon.

I knew that the Overstock deal should have been posted in this folder also, heh.

Does Overstock credit back the shipping difference between $1 and what shows on the checkout page?

I've cleared my cache, cookies, and history...and STILL see a more-than-$1 shipping charge when I try and checkout.

The used DVDs that I have received from Overstock.com have always been in fine playable condition (light scratches and the such may or may not be present however). The worst part, for me, is that they put stickers on the cases that are an absolute nightmare to remove, even with GooGone. I don't know if they do this anymore or not though. I haven't bought any used DVDs from them since way earlier this year.

So the stickers are just on the outside of the cases?

As far as I remember, yes. I don't think there were any stickers on the discs, but I could be wrong about that. It's not a huge deal, but it's just enough to piss some people off a lot.

I've ordered a number of the used discs from them, stickers are on the OUTSIDE of the case. Discs have ranged from almost perfect to EVER so slightly stratched. Any movie that should have come with a insert also came with one. They use to put more than one sticker on the cases, but the last one I ordered from them only had one and it was smaller than the ones I had got in the past and I was able to remove it without any googone and it left almost no residue.

Thanks for your insight. I'm considering ordering a few of these.

I just ordered Kill Bill 1 and 2, Shaolin Soccer, Open Range (for my dad), and School of Rock for $23.95. (73260 didn't work for me.)

Damnit, and I said no more DVDs until the next DDD sale.

Good luck with that... Being a member of this forum, it's nearly impossible.
