Re: Target -- Marvel's The Avengers 3D Combo Pack with Bonus Disc for $19.99

Picked up the 3D version. There were about 10 when I got there and a ton of the 2D Blu version, which I also thought wasn't going to be in-store based on that Target pic we saw earlier in the week.

Time - around 1 PM

Got what I needed. Gift for my dad.

So many people without jobs that need something to do!

I got mine at lunch for $20. 2 copies left.

The pic of the Target sign said that they were lowering the price of the 3D version because the ad advertised the 2D version with a digital copy (which it doesn't come with).

For those with none at their target, Amazon PM the $19.99 price and no tax for some.

Better hurry in case price goes back up.

They had pre-order cards near the checkout lanes for well over a month, which included a sneak peak of the bonus disc. Pre-orders ended over a month ago, IIRC.

Got the last one at my target but the slip is ripped in the bottom corner, very annoying. Obviously by whatever monkey they had putting them in those little plastic superman prisons.

Thanks for the alert - I just ordered from Amazon. Sounds like most of the Targets didn't have a lot of copies, and the sign sez no rain checks.

If you don't care about the bonus disc, it is a good deal.

Both Target stores on Oahu were sold out of the 3D packs before 9:30 AM. Went to Best Buy & they price matched the $19.99 if you mention to price match the Target ad to the cashier in which the price will show up as $19.99 in their computer system. No need to bring the Target ad.

Re: Target -- Marvel's The Avengers 3D Combo Pack with Bonus Disc for $19.99

The bonus disc is pretty solid... it touches not only on the making of The Avengers, but the making of all the films in the first Cinematic Arch. It's a 23GB Single-Layer BD with a full-length 98-minute documentary from conception of the Cinematic Universe through the making of each film.

The documentary also has English/Spanish/French/Portuguese subtitles... which I love to see.

Audio is DD 2.0 @ 320kb/s

I didn't even bother checking with the local Targets. I just ordered from Amazon. Horray.

That's correct. No need to bring the Target ad. Just tell them Target is selling for $19.99. I bought 3 packs for my friends. The Bestbuy store that I went to still have 4 steel book cases. They are not free anymore since the movies release today. It is $7.50 each.

The news of the mess up and the adjustment came late. Also, there's an internal message stating there are more copies on the way to the stores.

I think this will last all week... just because it's on the front page of the Target ad (looking at it now) listing a Digital Copy w/ the Regular BD/DVD version (which it doesn't have)

Re: Target -- Marvel's The Avengers 3D Combo Pack with Bonus Disc for $19.99

I was going to notify Amazon of the pricing error, but as I pulled up the order in the "Contact Us" section of their site, I saw this message pop up:

Did you pre-order Marvel's The Avengers (Four-Disc Combo)?
If you pre-ordered this item at a price greater than $19.99, we'll be automatically refund the difference to you under our Pre-order Pricing Guarantee. You'll receive an e-mail confirming your refund in the next 1-2 days.
That makes it $15 after coupon, I guess. I picked up the Target version this morning, but think I'll just return it if this one is $6 cheaper (with tax). Though that bonus disc does sound pretty great. Ugh, what to do.....

Does anybody know if the Amazon's 3d pack has the 3D Lithograph slipcover like Bestbuy?

Yes. It's the same cover (at least as the one I see on Best Buy's website.) My pre-ordered copy arrived today. I'm glad I went ahead and pre-ordered when the $5 coupon was still active.

It's not a lithograph slp it's a lenticular. I think oly Target has a plain cover on the 3D version.

What the hell? My Target didn't have ANY 3D combo packs. They said those were the one's that were recalled. They had tons of the regular (non-3D) blu-ray combo packs. I'm so confused now. What's going on?

All the employees at that store have a copy reserved in their names. That's what's going on.

If they have the same UPC, you can return the one from Amazon to Target.

EDIT: And switch the slipcovers, so you get to keep the lenticular one
