Are there any active DVD Empire coupons?

Shopping cart = view order at the top.

Identification Of A Woman: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Jimi Plays Monterey / Shake! Otis At Monterey: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Letter Never Sent: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Makioka Sisters, The: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Moment Of Truth, The: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Organizer, The: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Summer Interlude: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Three Outlaw Samurai: The Criterion Collection ~ $17.56

Those are the $30 msrp titles, so $17.56 isn't that great.

You could have got them for $15 earlier this week.

Yep. Criterions need to be half off or better before I consider them a good deal as B&N has their twice annually 50% off sale and Criterion has the occasional 50% off as they did last week.

I put in a couple of separate orders, mainly for pre-orders. Mainly went after Shout Factory titles and 3D titles...

They Live/Halloween II & III
Avatar 3D
I, Robot 3D
Flying Swords of Dragon Gate 3D

I pre-ordered all the Scream Factory blu-rays and also picked up Chungking Express for a Christmas present, since it is now apparently out of print.

What's the point of this post. Of course a mediocre sale is better than none at all... but just a "little" patience will yield a lot more savings.

I totally agree with this and also thank the OP. First time order for me from here and contrary to laidbacklarkin above I found their search engine to be great, much more comprehensive and user friendly than, say, GoHastings for example.

I picked up the four BLIND DEAD movies and added the western 7 MEN FROM NOW to get Free Shipping. Two of the movies are on back order so I hope I get them soon. Even so the $28 tag for everything beat Amazon. And no tax!

What's the point? The point is, nine times out of ten I try and contribute to this forum, someone comes right along and slams down my contribution. $17 for a criterion is a good deal, if you missed the 24 hours sale at Criterion, or didn't want to spend $50 to get free shipping. People here are quick to say "your deal sucks." And it's frustrating and annoying.

I know what you mean; but 50% off Criterions is so common that its hard not to point out that waiting is a good option.

I'm sorry that you're annoyed, but think of the alternative. You and I and others sometimes get told our deals can be beat; or no one mentions the better deals worth waiting for and multiple people pay more than they need.

Personally, I take the occasional 'chastisement' but enjoy the overall better sharing of possible deals.
