This is very tempting... I know I don't need the Best Of... but the collector's box for a buck, I'll need to fill the gap...

Thanks for the heads up

prior seasons were ~22 episodes, these are 18 and 13. These boxes should be cheaper for what you get.

Thanks, I've been waiting for a better price on these! Passed on the collector's box, why would they put that space in there for the Best Of?

I remember when one of my brothers and I would watch this series on late night tv. We enjoyed it a lot. I have held off buying the series but this makes it tempting. Thanks for the post! If only some huge dvd retailer would have a big 19-21% sale, I could get the other seasons!

Every year or 2 I see a post about something
the highlander store is selling.

All I can say is Beware with them. Their
customer service in the past is spotty
at best. If you do not believe me, do
a google search on the highlander groups.

They screwed up many orders when the
1st season dvd set was only available
from them.

With an MSRP of $80, I bet we see an across the board price cut in the next six months since all the seasons are now finished and all the money-is-no-object fans have paid the big bucks. I suspect that this "deal" may be a market acknowledgement that seasons 3 and 4 didn't sell as well as they were hoping.

Amazon says the release date of season 6 is Feb 8th, 2005. How come this Highlander store has it available? Is it legel to sell before the street date?

The official site had all of the sets available before the official street date - I believe it's part of the deal they worked out with Anchor Bay.

My season 5 & 6 showed up just a few minutes ago. I even went ahead & spurged for the "library case" for the dvd sets.

Strange thing was that my order also included a stowaway - an unsealed VHS(ugh) copy of Highlander Renegade DC.

Anyways, I'm satisfied.

Now, just to collect the other 2 I'm missing.

Just an FYI... I bought one months ago, and while it houses the sets, it's made of very thin (cheap) cardboard.

Strange thing was that my order also included a stowaway - an unsealed VHS(ugh) copy of Highlander Renegade DC.
I wonder how many they had to get rid of! Mine has already has been trashed... :-)

Seasons 5, 6 and the case arrived today, along with an unsealed VHS copy of Highlander Renegade DC. Everything was nicely packaged for shipping and arrived undamaged. I would purchase from this company again - it was a good first experience.

I had to add it to my dvdprofiler by title. I also noticed that the case is red when all my other cases are black so it looks a little off next to the other ones.

I also ended up with the opened VHS (had already forgotten about that). I plan to try and put the movies in the cardboard box with the seasons sets (now I just need the rest of the movies). Only problem I see with that is the metal cover that came with the original movie doesn't quite fit.
