Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
I'm not sure if Mill Creek themselves are closing shop (I don't think so but I could be wrong), but it appears their direct sale warehouse is. As a result they are having a ridiculous sale...I was able to get 5 blu's for $20.96, UPS shipping included. At that price, its silly not to find a few to like.
Site www.millcreekdirect.com
Coupon Code = FINALSALE (one word, not two like the site says)
Shipping = Free if your order is $50 or more pre-coupon code!
It should work on all titles blu or dvd. Note, I could not get the site to process my order until I used Firefox, IE was a bust. Be sure to select your shipping method prior to processing order. Here is my order as an example:
The Big Picture - Blu-ray 63239 1 $11.23
No Good Deed - Blu-ray 63236 1 $11.23
Frankenstein - The Complete Mini-Series Event - Blu-ray 63245 1 $11.23
The 10th Kingdom - 15th Anniversary Special Edition - Blu-ray 63242 1 $18.73
My Science Project - Blu-ray 63244 1 $7.48
Subtotal $59.90
Shipping & Handling $0.00
Discount (FINALSALE) -$38.94
Grand Total $20.96

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
That 70's Show complete blu-ray set would be great...but seems to be a dead link (I'm assuming maybe they've sold out?).
Not a big fan of Mill Creek, but these were some nice discounts - worked out to less than $4 a title (and many of those were multi-disc sets like Gamera, Daimajin, etc).

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
For those who want Blu-ray titles only (not sure if this will exclude BD+DVD)
Mill Creek Available Blu-ray Titles
Lonesome Dove is a must. As is 10th Kingdom.

Garbage website. I was placing an order. They quoted free shipping. On the next page, they raised shipping to $3.50. I hit back on my browser to check free shipping a 2nd time, & it cleared the cart. GRRRRRRRRRR. Guess i didn't really need this sale.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
It took me a few tries to figure out the free shipping option...thankfully it didn't clear my cart (of course, I had several windows open and that might have helped). You need more than $50 after the discount...and you have to choose UPS Ground to trigger the free shipping. --Peter

Cannot believe so few Blu-rays are available.

There was nothing i had to have; interest was really due to the low prices. MC tends to have very poor prints; so I'll live!

Almost all of those Mill Creek Blu-ray double features can be found at the local Dollarama in Canada for $3 each in Canadian dollars which is about $2.15 in US dollars.

or $2.99 - $3.99 at a Frys store in the US these days. Some are also available as a 4 pack for $9.99. Gone are the days when they were routinely $0.89 or $0.99 every other week with a promo code. Collected almost all of them

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
To those who did not get in, honestly you probably didn't miss much as the site is now down and points to the main Mill Creek site. I did this primarily for Frankenstein and 10th Kingdom and threw the rest in for free shipping purposes. But if it went down this easily, who knows if I will ever get anything now.

From Mill Creek's Facebook page:
I never bought from their site, prices were too high. I just buy from Amazon, Bi-Mart (a local store chain in WA, OR, ID), and sometimes Walmart.

At least they are consistent.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
Signs point more to they realize how cheap it was selling for and took it down.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
I had all kinds of things in my cart yesterday, but finally resisted. I just knew it was going to be a massive addition to an already massive unwatched pile.
There were definitely some great deals. Will be interesting to see if the site/deal comes back.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
I almost pulled the trigger but free shipping wasn't working and I asked myself "SterlingBen, do you really need to upgrade My Science Project and Krull?" Those being the tentpoles of my Order I decided to pass.

I already had the only MC title that was major essential to me: The blu-ray of Legend Of Billie Jean.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
The site was up for at least a few minutes early this morning. I checked it when I got up and it was apparently up - the main page loaded - but I didn't have time to mess with it then. It's now down again which is possibly a blessing as I really don't need to spend any more on media this month.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
Nice. They have a total of 24 Blu-ray titles available.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
I just placed an order. It looks like the code took off about 65% of my tab...a really good sale! Thanks big time to Kedrix for the news on this.

Re: Mill Creek Direct: FINALSALE
NP, however I hope we get a shipping notice (or it shows up on my doorstep) sometime in the next week or so. Even if their direct sale warehouse wasn't going bye-bye this would be my first and last order with them lol
