In addition to that you will also have to pay the tax, but we already expected that, just not the HUGE ripoff rates that UPS wants to clear your package.

I know there's a good thread in history about it.

I want to pick up those x files sets so bad because of the amazing deal but im already in $2400 debt in credit cards The credit card must not take another hit! I hate being a broke college student now atleast I can hope that a box set with all the seasons comes out and I'll pick that up for sure.

FYI, not sure if it has been mentioned but the WB rebate is good until the end of the month so this sale would be a great way to finish out the requirements for that $50 rebate if you are short any.
Just thought I'd give a heads up.

Anyone know what the story is with Dario Argento's Inferno? I had it in my wishlist yesterday, and today it's gone. When I did a search for it, the page said "There is no information on this title."

using the phone with these vendors is ALWAYS recommended as far as i'm concerned (instead of email)...

You just have to know what the original price you ordered it at was. Hey, every penny counts!)
