The Official Best Preorder Price for ROTK:EE Thread
 

Ok guys and gals...

Buy.com: $27.99 w/free shipping
Amazon: $23.99 ($21.59 w/STL)
DVDEmpire: $29.95
DVDSoon: $30.07 (USD)
BestBuy.com: $29.99 (likely to go down prior to release)
CircuitCity.com: $34.99 (likely to go down prior to release)

Hard to beat the Amazon STL price. However you need to purchase another item of at least a $1 to get free shipping included. Also you can save another 1.57% with the A9.com instant reward.

Wow, this title isn't due out until mid-December, right? It might be a bit too early to start posting the best prices.

That said, I think the Amazon STL price is very good.

thats funny I was coming here to post this cause a friend sent me STL on this, i thought 21.59 was a great preorder price, don't think any of the B&M's can beat this, 24.99 is probably as close as they can get.

I usually buy my LOTR DVDs through deepdiscountdvd.com via preorder, but I think I'll just bricks & mortar it this time.

I preordered both of the first LOTR Extended DVDs through Amazon with STL, and I remember that the price for each of them was just above $25 before STL was added.

ROTK:EE is actually a cheaper preorder at Amazon than the first two extended DVDs were!

Yes...I don't think the B&M's can touch this one as well...Great price and I will gladly give them my money (even though I will probably wait a little longer to get it).

Also, I wouldn't be suprised it Amazon raised their prices to 25.99 or so....

Amazon has recently raised prices on a few other pre-orders (Friends Season 8 and Batman:TAS Vol. 2). They may not honor the current price.

What about the best price for the giftset? I may pick up the giftset since I already have the last two sets :D

Giftset for me too! The Minas Tirith collectible looks very tempting. :D

I thought so too but with my bad memory, I wasn't going to put it into writing.:blush:

Amazon's the way to go. You can always cancel if the prices come down elsewhere (unlikely) or if they raise the price.

The best price I've seen so far for the giftset is $50 at FYE.

Damn! The extended version is only $19.99 there as well.

Amazon is still the cheapest /w STL after factoring in the shipping charge.

How do you figure? Looks to me like FYE is ~$22 (shipping included) while Amazon is $24.57 (shipping included) even with STL.
Even so, I will still use Amazon as I know if there is a problem it will be quickly handled with a minimum of fuss. I can't recall dealing with FYE. If I have it was long ago. Can anyone recommend them?

You will likely have to add sales tax to the FYE amount since they have B&M stores in most states. But for a few dollars more you would be better off purchasing from Amazon.

I will be placing an order Saturday at 12 noon EST. Anyone who wants STL let me know or add yourselves to STL at DVDtalk (www.dvdtalk.com/stl) STL price is $21.59, add something worth $3.41 for free shipping.

Actually, you'll only need $1.01 in order to qualify for free shipping. They calculate the free shipping before any coupon and discounts.

cool - so what should I get for $1.01???

buy it the 1st day its at walmart... the 1st two EEs were in the $23 range with...umm.. free shipping.

I know...either Easy Spanish Phrase Book for $1.50 or 1001 Most Useful Spanish Words for $1.95.

I know how to get it for free

They don´t ship internationally by any chance do they?

Not when I tried it. It asked or 3.42.

It might ask, but when you get to the checkout page it is actually less.
