$2 DVDs at Overstock.com

Go to the "Entertainment" section, select "Shop all movies", then sort by price. I picked up the following for $2 each:

K-Pax
Goldmember
America`s Sweethearts
Catch Me If You Can
Inspector Gadget 2
Holes
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
School of Rock
X2: X-Men United
Tomb Raider 2- The Cradle Of Life
Seabiscuit
Naked Guns Collection
The Italian Job
Paycheck

There are approximately 99 to choose from. Possible price error. Have fun.

What does "Checkpoint" or "Checkpoint Packaging" mean? Italian Job and Naked Gun Collection has these in the title.

Looks like a price error that was fixed. I see only about a dozen $2 dvd's, each one is worth maybe $2.

Whoa, those are great deals! I followed the instructions to list all the $2 DVDs, though, and it only lists about 20 of them and none of the ones listed above. But if I search for those, they do still have the $2 price tag.

Edit: Ok, nevermind. Some of them aren't $2 anymore. Naked Gun still is, but it won't let me order it.

It is just talking about the type of security tag used.

Holes was widescreen and was the only one I didn't have or cared to get from the list. I tried to order Naked Gun, but must have just missed because it disappeared from my cart. Anyway thanks to OP.

Picked up a few titles. I figure the fullscreen ones can always be traded in for the widescreen versions. Or they would be good trade-in fodder for BBV.

Thanks for the deal OP.

they have 2 different Naked Guns Collections (that's what THEY call them), they one that's $2 has a list of like $55 and the one that is $25 has a $35 list.

checking around, other sites all have the list around $35, like the one overstock DOESN't have at $2.

no other sites show that there were two versions. i was thinking one could be FF and that would be awful, but i don't see it listed that way at any other sites.

anyone else concerned about this or know why overstock shows 2 different sets? it's only a $3.40 risk, but i don't want to get my hopes up for no reason.

Like I already said, all 'Sensormatic' and 'Checkpoint' mean are the types of security labels used. This is only helpful for retail stores.

Sensormatic is what Best Buy uses. Checkpoint is what Circuit City uses.
