Hastings - MST3K Volume 6
 
FWIW, Hastings has the MST3K - Volume 6 mispriced at $14.99. Every copy has been marked at this price in every location (6 across Texas, over the past few months or so) that I've been to. So, if there's a Hastings near you, and they've got this in stock, you can find yourself a pretty good deal. It's been at this price for ages, so I don't see them catching it any time soon.

This is an in-store only slip-up, apparently. I just checked www.gohastings.com, and they've got it listed at $47 and change.

That is an incredible deal, of monolithic proportions!

I, unfortunately, do not have a Hastings where I live. But, that's one damn sweet deal.

I noticed this about the end of november. Picked up two copies to give as christmas presents.Havent seen them restocked yet.

Somebody's gotta go in a buy a bunch for the lovley people of this forum who do not have a Hastings nearby. Please.

(Sigh) Wish there were a Hastings nearby (never even heard of the chain). Dearly love MST, especially at bargain prices.

I adore Hastings. They have a ridiculously large selection (including a ton of in-stock Criterion titles), and on top of that, they dabble in used product...and as you well know, used Criterion is like gold to us DVD-collecting bargain searchers.

Not to mention, they used to have a 4 for 1 offer that was God's gift to my collection. Trade any 4 DVD's (and I mean ANY four, including Wal-Mart's $1 releases of The Swap and The Scarlet Letter) for any 1 DVD release, priced at $29.99 or less. I cleared all of the junk out of my collection, cleaned out my local Pawn Shop's $1-2 bargain bin, picked up a handful of Wal-Mart $1 discs...and loaded my collection with Criterion titles and boxed sets.

They caught on eventually and upped the price in their system for what discs they'd accept, but while it lasted, I was in heaven.

If anyone here is willing, I would be happy and eternally grateful to pay cost and s&h for one of these. My email is [email protected]

GeoffreyL 02-22-05 06:18 PM

Today I went by one of the Hastings I got this at,but they still have not restocked it. I will check the other two Saturday and see if I can find some.

Yes, me too!

RyoHazuki 02-24-05 08:07 PM

Updates?

l_xtopher_l 02-25-05 04:04 PM

I frequent 2 Hastings on a weekly basis, yet have no idea what MST3K Volume 6 stands for. Maybe I'm just out of it. If someone could tell me what I should be looking for, I'll see if I can get any for the people needing them in this thread.

SlingshotBandit 02-25-05 04:06 PM

It stands for Mystery Science Theater 3000. It's a show that used to air on Comedy Central.

Hey when you go, keep me in mind, if you can. Thanks. :)

l_xtopher_l 02-25-05 04:09 PM

That makes sense. I'll check Hastings tomorrow when I'm out for DVDs.

Hey, if you see one for that price, could you pick one up for me also? I would sooo appreciate it.

NatrlBornThrllr 02-26-05 12:05 AM

I'll swing by tomorrow to see if there are any left on the shelves.

If they have any, keep me in mind :D

Good news I found two copies today. If any one wants a copy let me know. They were $16.23 with tax. I am not sure what the shipping cost would be but i would Imagine it would be less than $20.00 shipped or I would consider trading for used tv sets that are about the same.

Sign me up. You can email me at [email protected] Thanks!!!

SlingshotBandit 02-26-05 10:44 PM

Sign me up too. I'd love to have this. I have seasons 1-4 already. My email is [email protected] Thanks!!

I tried emailing you, but you've blocked incoming emails, it appears.

EDIT: I tried again, and I think I was successful in emailing you this time.

GeoffreyL 02-26-05 10:49 PM

Both pending but I will check for more next weekend.

l_xtopher_l 02-27-05 12:09 AM

Just an update: My local Hastings had zero Volume Six boxsets, just the other volumes, all priced much higher than the $14.99 that people reported for Six.

Sorry guys, glad someone was able to help people out here, though.

Sign me up! I'll definitely like this, thanks!!

GeoffreyL 02-27-05 05:43 PM

If anyone is interested I also saw the Ed Wood Jr. (6 disc I believe) box set for 14.99 and the limited to 5000 box set of Akira Kurosawa that was available on amazon a few years back for 49.99.

NatrlBornThrllr 02-27-05 07:33 PM

The Ed Wood set for $15? Nice, I've gotta go check that out. Thanks.
Haven't been yet to see if there are any MST3K sets left. I'll update when I do.
