Damn those got cheap quick. Waiting for the day UHD will be a nice cheap price a month after its release date.

Upgrade no, most people prefer the original. If you have the OOP 1st release there isn't a reason to bother. If you don't have the first release then the new release is you only real choice though I've not looked at the scalper prices since the new box came out, but the last I looked people were still trying to sell for $200-300. I just looked and I'm not seeing any sets that have sold for less than $60-70

Same exact discs with a new disc art to show Paramount.
Different Case -- 1 Megacase instead of 5 ind season cases

I currently have the very first dvd edition.

This is the one that's $40 all over ebay. It's also only $44 on Amazon if you're in a non sales tax state & spend a few more $'s for free shipping.

It may be a bootleg as that happened recently with the Thriller DVD Box Sets that were all over ebay cheap.

$14.99 on that one right now. I'll get it at $9.99, though.

The bluray boxset is a substantial improvement over both of teh DVD sets though I think the Def Box does have one or tww extras the Bluray boxes don't
The PQ on the BD box is astounding and has all the extras missing from the 25 DVD boxset.
The original BD set and 2016 BD box are identical and I think are better than either of the DVD sets

No, I misread the ebay listings.

Best Buy has it at $9.99 if you have a store nearby.

Really tempted on Suicide Squad but not sure how much replay value it'd have for me. I prefer the Marvel titles for that.

I picked up "Squad" using my Best Buy $10 coupon (I was afraid the penny difference would be an issue) and got it for the .41 tax (insert joke here).

That's for the DVD. The Blu ray is still $14.99.

Nope, -it's currently 9.99.

Actually, this has been one of the strangest sales in recent memory. Prices have been shifting rapidly up and down. Ben-Hur was $10 on Amazon for a couple of hours (I assume matching Target) then rose to $27. Good luck figuring it out.

That probably explains why I can no longer find the $9.99 deal on The Magnificent 7.

Everything in my wishlist is up at least 20%...seems like Amazon's got some ambitious margins for Q1 :-)

The "Lost in Space" BD set went down in increments last week to 45.99 and I waited too long and it started going back up in increments to 49.99. In the last day or two it's gone back down and it's now at 45.49. I grabbed it finally, but good luck trying to figure out prices on Amazon, -it's turned into gambling.

Note: A friend of mine bought the same LIS set from Amazon for about $58 around Christmas. He asked me the other day about pricing on "John Wick" after seeing a trailer for the sequel. Off the top of my head, I seem to recall it being under $8 (at least) around Christmas (I paid $7 or $8 shortly after it came out). I just checked Amazon and Best Buy and it's $14.99, which seems ridiculous (unless it comes with Movie Money or something).

I'm not sure what you are looking at. Because it's currently $14.99 for Blu Ray and $9.99 for DVD and the Amazon Instant Video versions.

There was some confusion in the back-and-forth, - I thought we were talking about Suicide Squad. Sorry.

Nope it was the blu-ray & that is what I paid for it at the time I also posted here on dvdtalk.

I guess Amazon decided to raise the price back to $14.99 as BB did.

It is 14.99 at BBY online and instore. Target I'm 95% sure it's $10 in store, but not online so Amazon pretends it doesn't exist. I saw a bunch of $10 items at Target a couple hours ago and I'm fairly sure the Mag 7 (2016) BD was among them.

I tried to get it at Target yesterday and it rang up at $22.99, it's showing $19.99 on their website currently. Target had the DVD at $10.

If you point out they had them marked as $10 on the shelf they will adjust. At least they did for me.
