Let's just keep squeezing small sellers so only the big corps are left..........

Amazon wanted to squeeze out the smaller sellers on their Marketplace. Amazon's pricing wasn't looking too attractive when third-party sellers were constantly beating them by 50%. Places like Half and eBay often offer the same item sold on Amazon's Marketplace with cheaper shipping.

Aside from a few bargains posted by third parties with Prime fulfillment, I've abandoned buying from Amazon's Marketplace.

Don't know if this has been mentioned here or elsewhere on the site, but Amazon has a $3 coupon for Disney's Treasure Planet and a $3 one for Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

So be sure to jump in a time machine before ordering.

At this point, you might as well wait until the holiday season - it's sure to be under $100 come Black Friday this year.

Apparently in Pizza's world, video prices go up.

Anatomy looks okay, but only at this price level.

re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray

Changeling is <$5. Great deal.

A time machine is the only way to be sure you're getting the absolute best deal every time. You know it's true. ;)

Tempted to finish off my Fringe collection but I suspect it will be cheaper at some point. It was only half a season after all...

I bought it for $29.99 and the next week it showed up on Netflix. I don't mind it much because I enjoy the show. I still need season one they'll all probably be under $20 Black Friday.

re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray

Yeah, need Fringe s5 as well, but I might wait for Black Friday as well.

Fringe S5 BD might be a good candidate to PM at BB if trying to hit $50 or $100 at BB for the $10 or $25 RZ certificate on TV shows (sadly 1 time only). Since the RZ certificate is automatic with no coupon, I doubt they are even aware of it and PMs won't be an issue. Lately I've only been able to get to BB on Fridays (thanks primarily to work screwing my schedule over) and by then I expect they'll be OOS of OUTA S2 with the bonus disc, so finding $50 or $100 worth of anything in stock I want will be unlikely.

Amazon DOTD (Aug. 15): Terminator Anthology - $24.99; Mad Max Trilogy - $27.99

Linkage

* Mad Max Trilogy (Mad Max / The Road Warrior / Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome)

* Terminator Anthology (The Terminator / Terminator 2: Judgment Day / Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines / Terminator Salvation)

re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray

That Terminator anthology doesn't have the new remastered edition of the first film, right?

re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray

Correct, I don't think it does. Haven't heard anything about a new re-master of the first film.
