Re: Amazon Blu-ray Discounts and Deals Thread #27
I was going to post that the deal is expired, but then I looked more closely. The highlighted price was $29.99 from MN Media, but then looking more closely the link for new copies said $9.95 and clicking on that link brought up Amazon at $9.95 and others.
Could it be any more confusing?

The Avengers 3D combo is down to $30.
If you pre-ordered with the $5 coupon a few months ago your order should reflect the difference. With the coupon, $25 was what I was comfortable paying so I'm happy. Hope it goes down a few more dollars.

Keep up the great work Lizard and all those who post in here! Always cool to see titles I might have forgotten about or may not have been interested in at higher prices, having good deals.
For the ones I'm really interested in, I save them all for later in Amazon and if I go to my cart, it always notifies when the price changes

Don't tell me what? That I can save titles in my cart at Amazon and it'll tell me if the prices went up? I already know that. Since Amazon tends to jack around with their prices constantly (and usually in the up direction), if I were to put a batch of titles in my cart, a couple days later I'd expect most of them to be more expensive. I'm also paranoid enough of Amazon's pricing algorithms that when people show interest in a title by putting it in their cart, I think their software will tend to keep the prices higher. So I keep a file of stuff I'm interested on my PC rather than let Amazon know what I want by keeping it in my cart so they can keep the prices high.

And I don't believe that particular conspiracy theory, but I don't work there so I can't say for sure one way or another.

Amazon Marketplace prices are highly variable because of the limited stock of most Marketplace sellers. As you know, sometimes people here confuse Marketplace prices with Amazon's own prices.

I can: Amazon selling prices for BDs are available to all customers, with the minor exception that gold box deals are additional 5% discounts that are individualized. All of the price changes that showed up in my cart or the "saved for later" list have been the same as the prices available to everyone else.

I wish Amazon would post the correct AR on Blu-rays. Really is annoying and slows down my purchasing because I then have to research the title myself.

Security stickers, at least the little square plastic ones, should be removed. Over time, they can dislodge and end up sticking to the disc. Better to remove then when you first open the box than to run the risk of having it mess up a DVD or blu-ray.
