There is a coupon code, 86844101, for $50 off a $99 purchase at shopnbc.com.

Their regular prices are not that much higher than Amazon prices (before STL) and some are cheaper. One bad thing is that shipping is $2.99 per item (single disc or box set), so you're probably best off avoiding small things.

I picked up

Lost in Space, Season 1 $66.99
Walt Disney on the Front Lines $24.99
Mickey Mouse in Living Color, Vol 2 $24.99
Shipping $8.97
Discount -$50.00
--------------------------------
Total $75.94

Compare to Amazon (without STL): $65.58 + $24.74 + $28.04 = $118.36 (free shipping). So it's about 35% off the regular prices at Amazon.

Here's the "but." BUT the coupon seems to be stupidly programmed, and the actual deal seems to be: $50 off an order of $99 or more, as long as at least one item costs $50 or more. If all your items are $49.99 or less, it will tell you that the coupon code does not apply. (For my order, at the end of the checkout process, it said the $50 had been deducted from Lost in Space.)

So, to get the $50 off, one of your items has to be...

Adventures of Indiana Jones $59.99
An American Family Season $62.92
Apollo 15 $89.99
Buffy, Season 6 $51.99
CSI Season 3 $99.99
Dark Angel Season 1 $59.99
Dark Angel Season 2 $59.99
Dr. Quinn Season 1 $67.99
Dr. Quinn Season 2 $109.95
Highlander Series 4 $89.99
Lost in Space, Season 1 $66.99
MST3000 Vol 5 $59.99
Star Trek: Voyager, Season 2 $99.99
Transformers Season 1 $59.95
Transformers Season 2 $59.99
X-Files, Season 1 $81.99
X-Files, Season 2 $132.99
X-Files, Season 3 $132.99
X-Files, Season 4 $97.99
X-Files, Season 5 $132.99
X-Files, Season 6 $89.99
X-Files, Season 9 $89.99

Best deal is Star Trek Voyager, Season 2, for $52.98 shipped (plus tax if applicable). It's $106.59 on Amazon. Website says they have 23 copies.

Have fun.

Just a heads up...the coupon does not work for DVDs at the NBC-Universal store.

shawagg

so is SCTV2 on there yet? I can't find it.

Also are the conan dvds considered part of NBC Universal?

Deftones

this is going to sound sad, but I am going to see Conan next week and I was going to buy some swag there. I can save a ton by using this coupon.

Thanks.

Deftones

Not working. I am trying to buy Indiana Jones set and some Conan swag. Total is $118, but it still won't let me do the deal. Does it only apply to DVDs?

englishboy15

Yep. having a problem as well.

kenbenobi

I had no problems using it... Very strange...
I wasn't about to get Star Trek Voyager though... That is now sold out... But I got a decent deal on X-Files Season 9...

ugabuga

it works got buffy season 6 and felicity(going to sell on ebay)

Rogue588

didn't work on L&O: SVU, Boomtown & Conan..

kenbenobi

As stated above, one of the items MUST be over $50 or the coupon doesn't work...

Deftones

I think the other caveat is that it has to be DVD items only.

Rogue588

d'oh! that's what I get for not reading thoroughly..

damn eyes..

ben12

Damn, if only they had Angel or other MST3K sets...

dvdhuds

Thanks for the heads up. Got Buffy Season 6 and Freaks & Geeks for $59.42 shipped. Not a bad deal at all.

Gunshy

I think the X-Files DVD sets are excluded from the deal, didn't work on them when I tried it

Update: tried it with Lost in Space & Malcom in the Middle (Star Trek is SO) and it worked fine - thanks.

Hmmm, I thought the coupon wasn't good for stuff in NBC Universal store. I gotta try this.

sumdeus

I tried to order the exact same DVDs and it wouldn't give me the discount?! Does anyone have a secret trick in getting this coupon to work? I can't seem to get it to work for the confirmed orders I have seen in this thread.

Thanks...

tofu

I tried the same order too and I couldn't get it to work either. Although, I did get a lot of error messages saying that your order total must be over $99 which suggests to me that overall, the coupon won't work for the NBC universal stuff like was previously said. I guess dvdhuds just got lucky.

Watch out for farscape, it says the "entire season 4" but it is really just a 4 episode set from season 4. Almost fooled me, thought I was going to get a HUGE deal - farscape season 4 for under $20! Alas.

pilot

picked up simpsons season 2, indiana jones and the green beret's for ~$64...thx

Trevor

Tried to order Gumby and Night Gallery, no dice, 'products don't qualify'.

Hate to miss this bargain, but I already own all the X-Files and I don't really need any of the sets that qualify.

meritocracy

Grabbed Buffy Season 6 and Felicity Season 2 for $56 and change. Not bad at all.

Thanks OP
