Well, when I do that I get 208 hits for their "over 35 titles at this price", so I assumed that it wasn't likely a valid list.

If those titles do show up on-line I'll pick up another copy and there are several other titles of interest. But driving 60 miles on Thanksgiving to brave the in-store madness? I'll pass! :)

It could be quite interesting for bargain hunters if Amazon matches prices on those lists.

I followed your directions. It looks like the $9.96 price point is for the DVD.

Anyone know if Arrow season one will drop to 9.96 online? I know Walmart has it priced that for Black Friday.

Thanks.

Not content, but the versions have different cover art and the UK version has UK ratings logos all over it. Most don't care. But the US version has a nice clean look to it.

I like the UK version art wise better than the U.S. one. Also, very "no brainer" on the normal price differences. Like health coverage, it's amazing how much the cost difference is between the US and UK on these titles. :)

I think the UK version also has the Spanish version of Dracula and the U.S. version does not. I own the UK set and vaguely remember this to be the case. Am I wrong?

The US set has the Spanish version included.

Doesn't the U.K. Monsters set drop a commentary somewhere? The U.S. packaging is far superior, but obviously if price is an issue, well . . .

Just dropped elsewhere:

Jack the Giant Slayer (Blu-ray/DVD + UltraViolet Digital Copy Combo Pack) - $7.99

Thanks for that. Yeah, then I guess it's just that one commentary that wasn't.

I think that was it. The one missing commentary and set packaging were the only differences.

Far superior? I assume you have compared both sets in person so please elaborate in detail.
And, price should never be an issue, well . . .

Hmm so Breaking Bad S1-5 are $11.99 each...do you guys think it'll get any better than that this holiday season?

The only thing that would make it better is if Amazon ran the same B1G1 promotion on them that BB did last year. But, Amazon didn't price match that promotion then and I wouldn't expect them to now.

I actually bought S5 for $11.99, which is a steal on its own. As I do not expect significant price reductions or promotions on S6 (or the "Final" Season) for a while, it was no brainer to pull the trigger.

You assume correctly, but varying opinions on these sets are fairly easy to find in other more appropriate threads.

Who said price should "never" be an issue? I'd imagine that's down to individual tastes and budgets, and not simply the lowest price above all else.

I have access to all the episodes through Neflix and I still couldn't turn this sale down. Once AMZ matched BB, I finally bought them all.

Breaking Bad marathon in December!!
