I'd suggest they are purposely including a few very attractive items in these clearances they have no intention of ever fulfilling. Because people are very likely to order a few other items that aren't so attractive by themselves. Sure, they might sell a couple in extremely limited quantity in case an attorney general started looking into things.

I'll give this to the people running Alliance - they've gamed out just about every retail seller's trick you can think of staying afloat in a dying media business.

I just got a shipped email for the the current blu rays listed like Birdy.

I ordered on Saturday night. These ones were ones I had wanted but were too expensive.

In previous years, I've gotten some pretty cool stuff that they actually shipped at the discounted price. I got items like complete James Bond BD collection that wasn't the current edition. These were a little more expensive than 3.99 but still amazing deals.

I got a limited edition set of the Charmed DVD show that was out of print with bonus packing and disk. I got a BD collection of the Warner Stanley Kubrick collection on BD and others. They are able to sell a certain amount of clearance product at discounted price before they raise the price.

Some of the stuff I got didn't look new or have shrink wrap or was something they only had 1 copy of . Or some of it was distressed like returns with bad disks or damaged packaging.

It is more like a wherehouse clearance they do on occasion, then something nefarious. They are able to sell a certain amount of clearance product at discounted price before they raise the price.

They stated "Unfortunately, we are not able to fill the item(s)."

I assumed it was lack of stock. Hence why I checked if it was simply updated to a higher price or actually out of stock. And right after cancellation, it was still showing available for $3.99. Goes for 5-6 times as much elsewhere. Fortunately I found it brand new from a seller I've bought from on eBay for just over $5 shipped.

Strange things going on at Deep Discount.

I made a small order for around 7 items on 2/26.
Get the ordered received email and next a blank email.
So I send an email asking about order status.

Received a shipping confirmation e-mail that 3 of the 7 items have been shipped, with 4 items being canceled.
Also no record of the order on my account, so have to wait and see if anything really shipped.


Second order.
Still on account.
Says 8 out of 10 items have shipped. but received no shipping confirmation e-mail.
USPS tracking numbers say Pre-Shipment on one order and nothing on the last order.
All items price from $4 and above.

So wait and see. Only a few movies I really waited.
Looks like most were pricing glitches.
Taking a quick look most items from my order went OOS or up in price.

Well... I ordered one of each. Can't pass up those prices on Doctor Who season sets... We'll know in a few days if it's a mistake or not.

Looks like they have a BF sale going on.
https://www.deepdiscount.com/deep-sd...11?az=37-22745

They also have an ongoing sale they have under their deal section. Bottom left of the main page. Have not browsed it in a while.

They also have a 50%-69% Off Movies Sale
https://www.deepdiscount.com/movies

One-time use
Code 52UM9H5Z5 gives $5 off $30. Not sure when it expires.

Besides the few Dr. Who
sets, not sure what sale they are part of but their BF sale prices look like crap.
But I did not look at the whole sale.

Yes, Black Friday Film Favorites deals up to 70% off:

You can combine it with the 15% off GOBBLE code, or the aforementioned $5 off $30.
