Someone in the other thread said that they someone added the free shipping coupon while they had the $10 thing applied, and it deleted the $10 coupon. They had to call and go through a big mess to fix everything.

If you have the $10 coupon already, just accept that and don't worry about the $1 for shipping.

Adding the free shipping code doesn't delete the $10, it just puts it second in line....since the two can't be combined. Your next order will have the $10 there waiting for you.

Picked up the 2 Kill Bills for $11. Not bad, provided that the discs are truly in good condition....

They just guaranteed MORE business from me!

The problem with my checkout(see post above) was that Overstock somehow applied both a $10 and $1 coupon against my account....and it hosed their system so that it couldn't make the correct adjustments.

A call to their help line LATE last night not only fixed things, but for my trouble, they upped my coupon to a $20.

So:

Freaky Friday(for the wife and kid)
Shaolin Soccer
Kill Bill 2
Elvira's Haunted Hills

Net cost: $1.62 (!)

Received today - not impressed at all with the quality. I'm sure they'll play just fine, but I'd be embarassed to sell them.

Mine were perfect, all came with inserts and the back of all discs looked pristine. My only complaint is with the stickers they put over the right side of the case, those don't pull off clean at all.

Mine were in good condition too, those stickers are bad though, lol. I just tossed out the old cases except for Cold Mountain, cleaned that one up since its a 2 discer. (Open Range didnt have the sticker)

Good deal, thanks Op!

Yeah, same here. All three played fine but they were also scratched to hell. Also had to replace every case and the cover for Shaolin Soccer was ripped in the middle. Apparently this is a hit or miss situation.

I got Kill Bill V 1 and 2 last Thursday. Cases were excellent except for "Certified Previously Viewed" stickers which I had to get off with Goo Gone. The discs were scratched (none deep), but played fine. I just paid 10.98 for both - so not a huge problem and I intend to keep them and not upgrade to a SE anyway.

So thanks OP.
