Oh well, Costco, here I come. They'll have the best price for sure.

Well, the Best Buy stores are giving away an EXCLUSIVE Star Wars MAGAZINE.
Whoo!
(or you could get your DVDs elsewhere and buy their magazine for $4.99)

I take that the magazine will have a $4.99 price tag and will ring up free if purchased with the DVD boxset. After all, the magazine is exclusive and should only be available at BB, right?

Hi Randy,
The magazine is a Best Buy exclusive.
Like eau said, it'll ring up for $4.99 unless you buy the DVDs - then it's free.
I don't know how many they'll have, but I'm sure it'll be a lot.

I think I'll just go the FYE route.
Goto any FYE store and place a $5.00 deposit. Pick up the DVD on release day; send in the mail-in-rebate. Get the DVD for $38.00 total ($49.95 + tax - $15.00) (6% sales tax where I am at).

I would bet that some other B&M will meet or beat the $38.00 without a mail in rebate.
What I really can't believe is the prices its going for over on Ebay!
Yikes!

Me, I got mine for 33.50 from Deep Discount DVD with the abberation 20% off coupon, so I don't care either way!

Also, is the $5.00 deposit refundable?

not a chance in the world.
If anything:
A) The price will go up
B) The rebate amount will be less for non-pre-orders
C) Both A & B
Also, the DDD.com 20% off deal is a moot point for those that didn't get in on that deal. Therefore, it's not the best current deal or deal next week during release.

The magazine is pretty decent, actually. It's well worth the $5 even if you don't buy the DVDs there. But if you're planning on buying the mag anyway then it may make Best Buy the cheapest place to pick up the set.
