Guess that gamefunk.com thing really was too good to be true. They just refunded me for those $1 HD DVDs. No explanation or anything, mind you -- just the refund.

After checking the rest of their site, their selection and prices definitely leave a little something to be desired. I can't imagine I'll ever go out of my way to do business with them again.

gamefunk send me a cancel notice with coupons it was in my spam mail box.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Same here. Oh well.

Thanks for the heads up! Picked up four for $85 using coupon code 1455655:

Still rocking HD DVD?

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

EDIT: SOLD OUT now. I should have ordered it last night, but it was late, and I wanted to find other titles to make the shipping more worth it...

Darn, where were you last week when I placed my amazon.co.uk order? ;)
I did buy Motorcycle Diaries on HD-DVD for under 6 pounds, but it sold out before I went to post it...

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I ordered a few extras as trade bait.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Zodiac is 19.99 on amazon right now.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

^^ Yeah, Amazon.com is doing a Blu-ray "sale". Some prices are decent (like Zodiac, Truman Show ($16.50) or Baraka ($17.50) but most titles seemed overpriced even with the sale pricing. Still, there are some good deals to be had. I'm debating about ordering The Truman Show and maybe Baraka. I'm not sure if it's worth it though -- at least for Baraka, which would be a blind buy. But Roger Ebert says that film/Blu-ray release is reason enough to purchase a Blu-ray player. That seems like a pretty strong recommendation.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I noticed the Zodiac price earlier today. I was very pleased. I lamented over the $24.99 price just last night. :)

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Zach & Miri is $21.99. That Amazon sale is threadworthy.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Eh, 95% of the sale is pretty crappy though there are a few nice deals already mentioned by fellow dvdtalkers.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

It is definitely worth it. Baraka is a 'top five' as far as sheer visual quality goes, and it's absolutely fascinating, hypnotic and, gee, virtually perfect. There's much more to it than just pretty landscapes, too, in case you were under the impression that's what it involved.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Got Vexille for $17.49 at that Amazon sale, I think the lowest they had it for before was $24 or $25.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Not really a bargain, but more of a head's up. Target is carrying Primal Fear on BD for $19.99.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Amazon has lowered the price of the Fast and the Furious set to $59.99 (40% off).

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

From the bargains forum, there is also a 3 for 2 going on at Amazon UK with some actual good deals. I was able to use two from the list and one that wasn't and still get the promo.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Which ones did you use? Which was the non sale item?

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Will this set have a ticket to Fast & Furious in it?

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

They are making a 4th film? Holy crap.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

They sure are. The original cast is back too, so unlike parts 2 and 3 I actually want to see this one.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Yeah, saw a trailer a couple weeks ago. It will have most of the original cast from the first one as I recall.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I believe so.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I used The Thing (13.68BP) and Run Lola Run (8.98BP) from the sale title list, and My Best Friend's Wedding (9.98BP) which is not on the list and I got the 8.98 promo deducted at checkout anyway. The order has processed and is dispatching today. That was my only order, but I guess other titles may work as well.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Ok, Tower.com is at it again. Anytime Amazon has a sale, they undercut it by a dollar or two so there are some great deals to be had with the new Amazon sale. Good enough to make me cancel my Amazon order I had. Best one I saw was Zodiac for 17.99. They had the Truman show for 14.99 as well. They don't charge tax and you get free shipping over 25 bucks.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

This is probably a mistake, but right now you can get Sleeping Beauty and Pinocchio both for $26.98 at Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/Pinocchio-Anni...dp/B001ILFUDM/

Scroll down to the "Best Value" part and add to cart. It says $10 off, but the checkout is taking $10 off each title, making them $26.98 total. Damn near B1G1.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

That's a great deal for anyone who doesn't have them!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

sweet deal! already have sleeping beauty, but ordered anyway. figure i can sell or trade it later :)

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I'm in. Thanks!! :banana:

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

My Best Friend's Wedding was on the list. I got that one with some others. Thank you, though.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Wonder if that $10 promo is working with any other titles or combinations....

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Awesome! Thanks! Done!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Thanks for the heads up. I already placed an order and led a friend to water as well. Thanks again!!!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I'm in! Thanks, much -- now I'm really glad I didn't go pick it up at Toys 'R' Us last night . . .

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Ordered, thanks!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Ordered them as well, thanks for the heads up. Never did get around to buying Sleeping Beauty before, and just got Pinocchio at BB yesterday...hopefully they ship.

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

In addition to the great Zodiac price at Tower.com, here a couple more that are cheaper than I've found elsewhere:

Dodgeball $15.99
Revolver $14.10

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I have Sleeping Beauty and had just ordered Pinocchio, but for the price, I figure I can give them to my nephew as gifts.

Thanks for the tip!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

Sold! I already have Sleeping Beauty, but offered it to a friend if they'll split the tab. Thanks to the OP!

Re: One/Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Pt. IV: Back To Bargains
 

I have both, but at that price I couldn't resist. I will either give them as gifts to someone or resell them.
