The Police: Certifiable 'Live in Buenos' Aires - $9.99 @ BB

This is the BD version that also comes with a double-CD of the live show. Three discs for $10? Not bad...

Oh, and this seems to be a BB exclusive, so you probably won't find a better price.

Thanks for find OP! I had looked at this last year, but didn't want to bite at retail, but at this price, I am in for one. Will pickup in store the next few days. This has gotten some good reviews, and from what I have seen, is a great pickup for Police fans.

Thanks OP. Picking one up at my local BB. Good price - been wanting this one. I also recommend Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense on blu-ray if you don't already have it.

Don't forget your free 5 dollar prepaid napster card if its worth anything. Look for the free 5 dollar savings offer on the linked page.

Thanks OP, in for one. Was also going to mention that everyone might as well add the Napster $5 card, to get $5 off the BD set, but g beat me to it.

Finally got it to go through. I'll pick it up next week as I can't deal with BF crowds.

The vinyl is $9.99 too if anyone is interested in that.

Thanks OP!

Great deal, obviously, but those who buy this should definitely save their receipts and watch the whole BD and listen to the concert cds within the time time BB gives for returns.

When I bought Certifiable, there were 5 copies in the store and we had to open up all 5, because every one of the copies had numerous floaters that were badly scratched up.

The manager allowed me to pick the best 3 discs for the ones we opened and I was able to find 1 Blu-ray that looked pristine, 1 copy of the a cd that was pristine, and the other copy that had a few small scratches. That was the best we could do with 5 sets.

I made sure to watch the concert (very nice) and make sure the concert cd with scratches played on all of my stereos.

^ They changed the packaging. Every store I've been to has the typical BD case instead of the cardboard fold out... I wish I could find org packaging.

Mine was in a standard BD case and all discs were attached, so no scratches for me.

I popped it in last night and WOW! It's fantastic!

Thanks OP!

I picked mine up yesterday, and the discs were loose. After an examination, they looked ok. I will be checking it out in the next day or so to make sure everything is good. Looking forward to this one!

Re: The Police: Certifiable 'Live in Buenos' Aires - $9.99 @ BB

This is one of my favorite blu ray's of the year. I was a fan of the Police but this blu ray will make anyone a huge fan of the Police. They have a 45 minut4 documentary shot in HD that is fantastic and shows the band getting back together and the things they went through during their reunion tour. The concert itself is fantastic. The band is still fairly energetic and young and it doesnt take away from their performance at all. I always realized that Stuart Copeland was an amazing drummer but you can really tell how amazing he is by watching this video. The large screens behind the band is a bit of a distraction but the fact that the film is shot in Argentina makes this concert even better as the audience is part of the charm of the film.

Having an original CD attached is just an amazing bonus...all for $9.99. I would have paid $40 for this.
