Not sure since with sales tax it might be close to $50

Sweden?

I feel Jeff's pain though. It's hard getting used to having to pay sales tax on Amazon.

With this price, you could potentially get it for $29.99 at Target.

Target is matching Amazon's prices this month ... plus there is a $10 Target coupon for Indiana Jones on their website coupons.target.com.

Going to try this during my lunch break today. Hopefully, it works out.

The digi-packaging is woeful... no sale! I'll wait til they're individually released.

There have been reports of success over at blu-ray.com. I'm not going to bother just to save the extra $5 from when I got it at Target on Saturday. Not worth the hassle for me.

Thanks! Worked out for me here in NYC. With price match, the $10 Target coupon, & 5% discount with Red Card, it was $31.02 w/tax.

Being in Canada I tried to have Amazon honor the Target price, but that was a no go obviously. I don't know if these customer service representatives actually don't understant you or they're just playing that card...

Well I had decided to let this go, but I received a follow-up email that told me that "Amazon doesn't honor prices that are posted without our consent on other websites", which had NOTHING to do with what I spent about 15 minutes trying to explain the customer service representative.

I find the combination of their lack of understanding and sticking to pre-written answers is getting worse with time. That being said, I doubt this will do anything.

Worked for me without an issue. Got it for $31.xx after tax (didn't use a Red Card).

Paid more than $90 for the first 3 on laserdisc, so biting on this. (Still have not seen the 4th movie so will have to see how bad it really is.)

Emailed Amazon and they price matched the 29.99 price. Might be worth a try.


My brother just called me to say Amazon PM'd Target for him as well.

" Hi, I ordered the Indiana Jones set and then noticed that Target is price matching web prices (including yours) this month. They also have a ten dollar off coupon specifically for this set. Is there anything you can do to match that? I can cancel this order and have it today if I go to Target. I would rather deal with you guys though. Thanks for your time. "

PM'ed at my local Target and was able to use coupon with no problems. ($32.31 out the door) The only caveat was that the customer service rep had an iPad handy and double checked the Amazon price on their site. So I'd go ASAP in the event it sells out on Amazon and no price is listed.

Using the exact same email as Elpresident, Amazon has refused to price match my order...

Like I reported over the weekend I already got it for a hair under $30, but for people getting it at Target there is a coupon on their site for a $10 giftcard if you spend $50 or more. So, combine with Finding Nemo, DMR coupon and/or $8 off 2 select Disney titles and you have a sweet deal!
