Thanks for the notice! I picked up Kill Bill 1 & 2, Hidalgo, and Shaolin Soccer (on your reccomendation). I guess it does pay to check the bargains forum at 4:00 A.M.

illennium 08-02-05 06:29 AM

I ordered a copy of Shaolin Soccer. Thanks.

Rothlover 08-02-05 06:35 AM

Thanks OP, wallet is now $70 lighter, but got some great "dorm" type titles (nothing brings a suite together like "My Baby's Dady").

New Rambler 08-02-05 06:36 AM

Didn't that coupon expire 8-1?

I think the offer to get that $10 expired, but not sure about the coupon itself.

pilot 08-02-05 09:31 AM

picked up 6 flicks for ~25 ..probably won't watch em but what the hell ..lol

MrE 08-02-05 11:29 AM

My coupon was a go.

Brett 08-02-05 12:32 PM

What coupon are you talking about?

MrE 08-02-05 03:10 PM

If you signed up for Overstock Auctions, they credited your account with a $10 coupon.

Brent L 08-02-05 03:46 PM

I knew that the Overstock deal should have been posted in this folder also, heh.

BenboC 08-02-05 04:13 PM

Thanks OP, I picked up Open Range. Anybody know what kind of condition we should expect them to be?

bayork 08-02-05 04:20 PM

Does Overstock credit back the shipping difference between $1 and what shows on the checkout page?

I've cleared my cache, cookies, and history...and STILL see a more-than-$1 shipping charge when I try and checkout.

Brent L 08-02-05 04:30 PM

The used DVDs that I have received from Overstock.com have always been in fine playable condition (light scratches and the such may or may not be present however). The worst part, for me, is that they put stickers on the cases that are an absolute nightmare to remove, even with GooGone. I don't know if they do this anymore or not though. I haven't bought any used DVDs from them since way earlier this year.

illennium 08-02-05 04:34 PM

So the stickers are just on the outside of the cases?

Brent L 08-02-05 05:05 PM

As far as I remember, yes. I don't think there were any stickers on the discs, but I could be wrong about that. It's not a huge deal, but it's just enough to piss some people off a lot.

josepotato 08-02-05 05:22 PM

Grabbed Shaolin Soccer thank-you OP!

pilot 08-02-05 06:37 PM

I've ordered a number of the used discs from them, stickers are on the OUTSIDE of the case. Discs have ranged from almost perfect to EVER so slightly stratched. Any movie that should have come with a insert also came with one. They use to put more than one sticker on the cases, but the last one I ordered from them only had one and it was smaller than the ones I had got in the past and I was able to remove it without any googone and it left almost no residue.

Thanks for your insight. I'm considering ordering a few of these.

DAMN! I -just- ordered. Oh well. Thanks, OP.

esc24 08-02-05 08:49 PM

Where am i supposed to put the code in?

Darknite39 08-02-05 09:37 PM

I just ordered Kill Bill 1 and 2, Shaolin Soccer, Open Range (for my dad), and School of Rock for $23.95. (73260 didn't work for me.)

Damnit, and I said no more DVDs until the next DDD sale.

mclori 08-02-05 09:45 PM

I ordered Shaolin Soccer, Scary Movie 3, Cold Mountain, Barbarian Invasions, Hidalgo before I went to work this afternoon. Thanks Bobbin for the heads up!

Good luck with that... Being a member of this forum, it's nearly impossible. ;)

BigPete 08-02-05 10:11 PM

5 dvds for $22, what the hell, why not.

esc24 08-02-05 10:29 PM

I can't find anywhere to put in the free shipping code. Can anyone help?

xfilekr 08-02-05 10:40 PM

I entered the code, but it didnt show up on the total screen.......maybe you cant combine offers? (for those using the $10)

Brent L 08-02-05 10:56 PM

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.

Joe Carioca 08-02-05 11:34 PM

Ugh that was a mess getting that free shipping straightened out, it finally got done but what a hassle...dont even try it :)

theguyoverthere 08-03-05 07:49 AM

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

/crosses fingers

BiMonSciFiCon 08-03-05 09:22 AM

Thanx OP - picked up - Farewell My Concubine; Better Luck Tomorrow; Beyond Borders; Casa De Los Babys; Cold Creek Manor; Dirty Pretty Things; Girls Will Be Girls; Pinero; The Chateau; Till Human Voices Wake Us; Hidalgo; Quiet American; The Barbarian Invasion; The Human Stain; & Coffee and Cigarettes

bayork 08-03-05 02:59 PM

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 (!)

Chad 08-03-05 04:26 PM

Picked up Narc, Shaolin Soccer, and Dirty Pretty Things.

Thanks OP! :up:

abintra 08-03-05 06:01 PM

Appears dead for me.

Thanks OP as I picked up a couple before they raised the prices.

Darknite39 08-04-05 09:12 PM

I received a shipping notice today. Yay!

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.

xfilekr 08-15-05 11:03 AM

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!
