Re: Amazon: The Haunted World of El Superbeasto — $12.99
Nice price. Last time I checked Amazon, it was $19.99, I think. Best Buy had it for $12.99, so I ordered for in-store pickup ($13.97 with tax, I think). However, I haven't had a chance to go pick it up yet. I kept wondering if they'd try to pull and bait 'n' switch and give me the DVD for that price. I guess not--especially since Amazon's price matching.

Thanks, I paid 19.99 for it a few days ago, but I called amazon and they gave me the difference. You saved me seven bucks.

"Bait and switch" means luring somebody to your store with the promise of being able to get a certain product at a certain price, and then trying to sell the person a different product (usually at a higher price), with no ability or intention of actually selling them the original one. It does not mean charging a different price for the same product than was advertised.

I went to Best Buy yesterday to pick up the BD and at first I was like, "Cool, it has a slip cover. I didn't know it had a slip cover." It doesn't. They had given me the DVD instead of the Blu-ray. Thankfully, they readily acknowledged the mistake.
My significant other has no interest in watching anything by Rob Zombie after he destroyed one of her favorite movies (Halloween), so I guess I'll be watching it alone. I thought the graphic novel was absolutely hilarious and have been looking forward to the movie for a long time.
