The $5 off coupon is only supposed to work on Blu-ray/DVD Combos. However, it's not very hard to get a cashier to manually apply it on any Blu-ray title.

Re: Crazy box set deals at bn.com

i thought whatever the coupon said, it would scan in but 2 did not. regardless of the blu combos i placed on the scanner, it didnt scan. Two separate times, it didnt scan. so i had the informant & the other guy keyed in by the selfcheckout helper. So, bjs coupons are scanning or not scanning based on the bjs location.

Re: Crazy box set deals at bn.com

I'm ready for the next sale although my wallet is not. The buy 2 get 1 free doesn't sound too great but I'm sure I'll find a decent deal or two.

I also ordered Batman on the 21st, but nothing yet. Hopefully I'll get one within the next day or two.

I just got the shipping confirmation for the AP set as well. I bought it for my cousin for Christmas so they are really bringing it down to the wire here.

Same here, and it just barely gives me enough time (due to the microscopic 14 day return time window from some ambiguous date) to return the one I purchased at a higher price before B&N had a better sale on this set.

Unless B&N messed up my order should finally get Austin Powers today. That's the last order from this sale I've been waiting on.

I received my Spider-Man High Def Trilogy today. Frankly, I'm a little shocked it wasn't cancelled.

Got the Spider-Man as well although the box was pretty beat up. Considering others got cancelled, not going to bother asking for replacement.

Iam still waiting for mine, got the ship notice on the 17th and it still hasnt arrived, and my tracking number says no such record. I called up tuesday and was givven a run around, that the label must be ripped so the usps probably wasnt able to scan it, but that it would show up that day. 2 days latter i still dont have it.

wow thats some great express shipping let me tellyou

Re: Crazy box set deals at bn.com

I just returned my more expensive Austin Powers BD set (the one I ordered before I had a better coupon) to a B&N store. I brought in all of my paperwork, but the lady was asking how much I paid for it. I told her it was on the attached receipt. She saw $10 and change and said "that's a great price... I can't believe you're returning it". I then said "I don't need it and Craigslist/Ebay is too big of a pain for just a few bucks profit". After I walked out I noticed she returned it for the total price with tax on the attached paperwork as the base price, so I got back extra (the tax on that). That might barely pay for the extra gas to go there.

So apparently they are clueless how much you paid for an item you bought online which makes me wonder if I hadn't brought in the rest of my paperwork (just the useless invoice without a price) and played dumb if I would've gotten full MSRP refunded? It says "return without receipt" but I had a receipt and they didn't ask for my driver's license. She said that's just the way they do it. Lucky for them I was honest how much I paid.

Did anyone else have an experience like this returning something or was this lady just not experienced enough to look up the price I actually paid?

Re: Crazy box set deals at bn.com

I got my Spidey Trilogy today. The corners of the box were a little beat up but its not worth the trouble to return. All in all a great price.

Same here on the Spidey 3 but its prob not worth the trouble since it was going for less than $7-8 buxs last time i checked.

I want to do the same. Ordered a 2nd set using a better coupon code, but made the mistake of not using the Visa link on my first order of AP to get the free shipping thus the higher price. On returns for such a case, I guess you don't get your shipping money back if you want to return an item to the store, is that right? I guess I might end up keeping it if that was the case.
