Can anyone post a link to the main lightning deal page? I can never find it anymore. There used to be a clearly marked link on the main page. Probably still is but I can't see it.

Ugh. I missed the Lightning Deal on Blacklist Season 4 Blu Ray. As in I was busy and didn't login to see price. Before I have remorse for missing it, did anyone see the price? If it wasn't low enough then I don't care missed it.

Not sure if it was S4, but I saw a Blacklist for around $23 I think.

That seems like what it would have been considering their usual price is around $30. Some of the Blu deals I've seen have been about 15% or so off...

That price did include James Spader showing up at your house and revealing whether Red really is Liz's father.

The third season of Rick and Morty is $9.99, pricematching Walmart.

Picked up Rick and Morty, I hadn't gotten around to getting Season 3 yet.

Since when has Prime Day ever NOT been weak?

It hasn't started yet, is there a list of deals out there somewhere you are looking at?

DVD / Blu-ray / Ultra HD Blu-ray

It's not a complete list, but it's the first few hours' worth of deals.

Prime Day has really become Amazon's excuse to dump last year's Amazon hardware in preparation for the upcoming Fall reset. It's a triumph of marketing over real sales.

Thanks for the link! :up:

I picked up a couple slightly discounted editions of anime series I'd been looking at, and am watching a couple more deals to see where they end up, but nothing amazing is jumping out at me yet.

The above link doesn’t work for me.

Since my trigger point for 4k discs is $15 I picked up The Matrix, Blade Runner 2049, and La La Land.

It’s sneaky of Amazon to only show sale prices at checkout to prevent price tracking sites like 3Camel from triggering.

I'm watching the Hitchcock box, but I'm doubting it will drop low enough for me to bite. I need to spend at least $10 to get a $20 credit.

At least on Mozilla related products (& on Opera), the main Prime page is hosed. It just goes in a loop.

tonyc3742 07-16-18 02:49 PM

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
 
Interesting point.
The page does say, at the top, "buy any of these and get it for 14.99" - it might be easier to code that way than to change each page.
Or it could be a way to foil CCC.

I saw one title in 4k I was going to pick up, but I could get it and its prequel in BD combo pack for less than the cost of the 4k.

I wish there was still a decent trade-in market for DVDs and Blurays - most of the titles I would in 4k, either have reviews saying "not really a 4k", or I own and just recently watched the bluray.

And that is a pretty good deal on Potter. Even the bluray set is good - less than 30 bucks for the whole series, combo packs.

[Edit - it appears the Bluray set is Bluray only, no combo; the DVD is DVD only; the 4k is 4k and Bluray, and digital copy.]

Of course they (Amazon and the publishers) are probably approaching fire sale prices - low prices to get the few remaining people who a) like physical media and b) don't have these titles yet, to pick them up. For me it would be a partial upgrade and rebuy, I've got movies 1-4 on DVD or BD, and it seems like at least some of them are always on one of the cable channels.

Why not just wait until the final season to get the set?

And if you want to watch it all to catch up before season 8, just subscribe to HBO for a month. :)

I love GoT but I really regret getting these as they were coming out.

Tried to a little regular shopping at Amazon today (both U.S. and Canada). I could search stuff, but kept hitting a "something went wrong at our end" error page whenever I tried to log in or view my cart. For hours! Heard on the radio news that it's because of Prime Day, of course, which I'd forgotten all about since I don't have it or need it. Must be getting hammered this year, or perhaps just blocking us unwashed commoners for the time being. Guess I'll have to wait a while to do any normal shopping. :lol:

It's no GoT, but I did the same last year, or the year before, with the 'Contains all the movies!" Resident Evil collection at a Christmas sale. Then yesterday they had the _new_ "Contains all the movies!" collection, with the 6th movie (which I read wasn't very good). I didn't double dip.

Edit: LOL - the edition I got last time is a prime day deal now. The 6-movie was a deal yesterday.
