You can choose between the two exclusive Best Buy covers and get a free keychain for $34.99. The regular cover is also $34.99 but does not come with the free keychain.

Amazon has just matched the $34.99 price sans the keychain and exclusive packaging-

They put a $30 price on that keychain???
I got the keychain when I pre-ordered in-store last month. Glad to see the $35 price. I wasn't sure I would get it, but now I think I will...

Thanks ... just cancelled my Amazon order. I'll pre-order at Best Buy.

I'd rather get it on release day from Amazon than get it from Best Buy with a keychain. I'd probably STILL be waiting for my Boardwalk Empire set had I not cancelled by Best Buy order (a week after release, no less!).

I preordered it when it showed up in my Gold Box. The new price isn't showing on the order yet, but assuming it is and the $2.25 Gold Box discount still applies, I think that's a pretty great deal (I still remember when those Soprano season sets were $100 each on DVD). I'd like a keyring, but not enough to pay the difference + tax.

The Gold Box discount will drop to $1.75 (5% of the new price).

Nice, I'm in!!

I would have bought it at Best Buy but their site says that they can't ship the keychain and the nearest store that has them is a 45 minute drive away. I'll go with Amazon instead.

Michael Corvin

Same as Sinnott. Couldn't choose in store pick-up for the keychain nor would they ship it. Amazon it is.

Just going to pick it up when it comes out, since this likely the price in store. GOing for that awesome Targaryen edition.

Gizmo

Meh. I'd rather just save on tax by going the Amazon route. What the hell would I ever want a keychain for? People really like these little silly extras that will sit around in a drawer for ever more?

starman9000

I'd actually use the key chain.

DVD Polizei

I personally like the Targaryen Edition.

onebyone

Me too. Usually I would definitely go with amazon, but I got to have that tax be damned.

There are benefits to buying from Amazon, but my experience with the Boardwalk Empire set at Best Buy was awesome. Using the trade-in deal, I was able to get the Boardwalk Empire set for $29.99, which included an exclusive disc PLUS I got the Game of Thrones BD sampler ... so I got it for $5 cheaper than Amazon with more extras than Amazon was offering.

I prefer the Stark Direwolf cover over standard and Targaryen. Looks like I need to pick up the "$30" keychain at a store 30 min away--hope it's worth it. At least the Blu-ray set itself was available for pickup at my local store.

E Unit

Great deal for me since I have $10 RZ coupons I need to get rid of.

DVD Polizei

I'll probably sell the keychain, making my overall cost $0.

kenbenobi

You think you can sell the keychain for $40? If that were true, I'll rip my house apart tonight to find the two keychains I got last month...

Shannon Nutt

For some of us, it's not about price, it's about having the set on release day. Now that Amazon price matches most of Best Buy's "deals", I hardly every order from them...the exception is for some of their "exclusive" windows on Blu-ray releases (like Planes, Trains, & Automobiles).

Mike86

Not a huge deal really but it seems stupid that Best Buy won't ship the keychain. I don't have a store in my area and am ordering the Stark cover since I like the looks of it.

flix1

Sorry ... I thought I was posting in the Bargains forum.

Kidding aside ... I have never had a problem picking items up on release day from Best Buy, even when I have not pre-ordered. Don't get me wrong, I love Amazon, but I don't consider them as price competitive as they once were, especially on release date pricing. They will typically match the best release date deal from another retailer, but rarely do they offer the best deal on their own.

musick

spot on

crazychris88

I ordered from amazon. But I would like to know more about any bonus disks
