(DEAD) Best of Discovery Volume II: $10
 
http://shopping.discovery.com/produc...d=40587927-0-0

Don't know how good this set is, but it's currently only $10

Does anyone know what the PQ and SQ is on these sets? Aspect ratio? DD5.1?

Thanks, I got the last one for this price in the discovery store. Anyone have any free shipping codes?

Don't know the specs, but 5 discs set for $10? $2 per disc or around 2 hours (total is 8 hours something) is not bad. However, shipping is $6+ (if order more) and taxes! Ouch!

$5 off $25 RPJAN6 expires 01/31/2006
So if you add something else you can basically get shipping for free.

Shipping for me was only $3.

Hmmm....

Shipping was $5.80 for me (plus $1.82 sales tax) but that's because I bought another DVD and 4 VHS tapes along with the best of Discovery set and then was able to use the $5 off coupon.

I believe they are all OAR considering the last set had certain discs in widescreen and others in fullscreen. Not sure about the SQ, but PQ is apparently "digitally remastered."

thanks for the heads up...
I am sure it will be enjoyed

Bummer, I forgot to order it myself.

Posted the thread and forgot to come back and check opinions.

I saw this set last week at the Discovery Channel store in my local mall for $10. I was all ready to take it up to the counter until I noticed the sign above the sets that said "$10 WITH $50 store purchase". The rest of their DVDs were horribly overpriced (Michael Palin's Himalaya for $49.99) so it didn't seem worth it. Congratulations to those who got in on this good deal online, you probably won't have the same luck in a B&M store.

when am I going to learn to impulse buy immediatly and not wait and think about it?

JoN8282 01-19-06 08:30 PM

this annoys me because i got this deal on volume 1 last year, and this year i got the e-mail advertising this sale and by the time i got home from work and hit the link, it was already sold out - i remember last year the B&Ms started selling off their stock at the same price point... i shall have to look around, however i have a feeling after last years severe overstock on volume 1 (afterall this is a holiday promotion set) they lowered the production quantitys.
