Assume that all of these are available to all customers unless specifically listed as member only like the Welcome Package. Also remember that any preliminary codes are just that and BN could pull it, change the details or exclusions anything prior to release so always a bit of YMMV until the final release date

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Great deal on the ESPN 30 for 30 Collector's Set - $14.99 at the moment. It dropped to $19.95 a few days ago, first time it's been below $20. Now there's been another drop. I bought it used on Ebay a year or so ago, otherwise I'd be all over it. Shows temporarily out of stock, but you can still place an order.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
^^^ What's funny is that I placed an order for this when it was first posted and I just got a ship notice this morning that it will be delivered on Monday. Not a bad wait for the price.

By the way, if anyone clicks on the link, make sure you go to other new options to pull up the cheaper price. At least while it lasts.

The USPS raised 4-6 ounce shipping to $2.60 this year (a significant increase); though I don't believe Media mail went up at all.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Weird that they're giving free shipping for $25 worth of books, but pushing it up to $49 for CDs, DVDs, and blu-rays when books weigh significantly more.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
USPS Media Mail for books or some kind of deal with the USPS. They could do it for other media, but why use all your tricks in the bag at one time.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I was told this at a local USPS when I was shipping out a sale of a Bluray set - no more CD's, DVD's, movies UNLESS for educational purposes, don't know how that last piece could be implemented.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Also read a while back that comic books couldn't be shipped as bound printed matter because they contain advertisements. Guess they're afraid someone might try to order Sea Monkeys or X-Ray Glasses.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I'm a big player of board games, and I've noticed that shipping prices on Kickstarter projects have increased enormously. Last year most projects had shipping included. Now it's a $10-20 add-on. USPS is a common target of blame.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
They need to absorb it into the price of the product so shipping doesn't look so awful.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
That and potentially the number of projects that have ended up losing money for the creator in the end because they underestimated shipping generated from adding in a ton of minis as stretch goals

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Given the number of complaints that come up when Kickstarter games pop up on online retailers for a significant markdown on the Kickstarter pledge price - sometimes even before the Kickstarter backers get their copy - it would probably be a mistake to further inflate that price difference by hiding the shipping cost in it. Better to be up front about the shipping cost, and get the complaints out of the way up front.

Yeah, good point.
