Blockbuster Pre-Order and Part Number Thread
I do not know about you, but I am having a hard time keeping up with all the Blockbuster threads right now:
The $8 Trade-In Deal: Blockbuster - Get $8 minimum trade-in credit from 10-3 to 11-1
How are you spending your Blockbuster credit: How are you spending your credit?
and the last one, which is most related to DVD Bargains, Blockbuster Price Mistakes
The information here is a compilation (from existing threads) of necessary information for placing DVD Orders through Blockbuster B&M stores. I just spent too much time to keep looking for the information I needed.
How to pre-order an item in full:
I would like to keep this post current, with your help. If you find new items or have part numbers, please post and I will update the main post.

How to pre-order an item in full:

Actually, you should be able to pre-order an item in full, with $0 due on delivery.
The CSR first types in PRESALE or hits the presale button
Them system will ask for a part number
The system asks new or used
Then it asks if they would like to put down a deposit. If they hit "NO" then the items should ring up full price and you can pay for it right there and then.
On street date (or whenever you go pick it up) the all the CSR has to do is type in "DELIVER", type in the part number, and hand you the DVD.
That's been my experience anyways.

Thanks a lot, this should be really a helpful thread. I read through the misprice thread and never saw mention of Columbo. I'm going to run down and order that right now.

Good thread - very helpful !!
Perhaps some posters could also post actual store locations in the various cities in which they live that are actually taking pre-order/special orders for these titles as well.

I just pre-ordered that plus Smallville and Looney Tunes.
Overall, the store gets an A+ in my book being so helpful.
I also could not pay in full. I owe $1 each when they all come in.

Thanks. Nobody at BBV had any idea that you could preorder titles and found my print out of this thread very useful. Now are we certain by preordering that Looney Tunes title that the DVD will indeed arrive at that store?
