Amazon used to list the whole schedule WITH PRICES ahead of time. Now it seems they slip new items in and if you don't routinely check to see what's going off when - with no idea of what the price is, mind you - then you miss out. I almost missed the 3:20 pm round because I was preoccupied with other things. Picked up Arrow S1 BD for $10 and Hotel Transylvania DVD for the g/f for $4. So glad I cancelled my $17 Arrow order earlier this week.

No blu for Silver Linings Playbook? That seems odd...

Ditto for the Pitch Perfect LD. Why not offer the Blu-Ray?

Re: Amazon Countdown to BF Week - Lightning Deals Calendar

I just bought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle set. I went back less than a minute later and it was 100% claimed. I figured the Heat or Silver Linings would have gone faster.

Anybody found Nikita S3 Blu or Persons of Interest S2 Blu anywhere in stock for $10? Walmart is sold out and had hoped Best Buy or Amazon would match.

I was on the waiting lists since I ordered The Heat first. I waited about 12 minutes and a message saying I had about 2 minutes to place it in my cart. So I did get to order it.

Oblivion went FAST too.. I anticipate both ZDT and Pacific Rim to be sold out in 10 minutes, if not sooner.

I was able to snag Oblivion. But then again it was the only thing that had interested me all day on there. Coupled it with Dishonored: GOTY on 360, and that's probably it for tonight.

Re: Amazon Countdown to BF Week - Lightning Deals Calendar

I'm surprised they didn't update or at least place the deals front and center on the iPad/Phone apps. It's still business as usual (with just the basic LDs, bestsellers) while all the action is in the Black Friday section.Seems pretty stupid.

For Revolution S1 I couldn't get the &^%$ add to cart button to show up. I finally got on the wait list, as #228, but it lists my chances as "poor".

I hope it happens, this is the most wanted BF item left on my list.

I bought TBBT season 6 on the Lightning deal for $9.96. It says the estimated delivery time is 12/5-12/9

Once I get it, I will return the one I bought at Best Buy for $16.99

I was #67 on the waitlist and snagged a copy about 5 minutes later. Also got BBT Season 6 on Blu.

Not exactly a Blu-ray, but the Ex-Officio boxer briefs currently on the LD has numerous reviews saying that they're the best boxers ever, and to snag them if there was ever a price reduction. Had to get 'em with that high praise and advice.

I had it all ready to go on my smartphone, clicked Add to Cart as quickly as I could, and was #199 on the wait list. It didn't come through for me.

I was successful with Revolution S1 and TBBT S6, cuz I was home by the time those went up.

Congratulations. I haven't been on many wait lists, I'd assume that if it doesn't come through in the next few minutes it won't happen, but I don't know? TBBT is a good price, but I don't think that I have enough interest in those to buy them. They'll likely be available next year, if I change my mind.
