If you look around, you can use the 12% off and $1 shipping coupon for Overstock. The terms say you need to buy one non-media item, but the system let me use it for just the boxset (though it charged me $1.40 for shipping; I'm not going to argue the point).
Total cost: $22.44

Haven't seen any of them myself except for Wizard of Oz (and I already own the boxset of that)... but at such a good price, it was a no brainer blind buy for me.

This is just the single-disc "Wizard Of Oz", correct? Is it a flipper? I was researching this set and saw that it includes plenty of special features for that film alone.
7 films, 7 discs and snapper cases.

the wizard of oz is the single disc version, filled with bonus features and is NOT a flipper. it is definitely jammed packed with extras for a single disc (right down to all of the audio excerpts of rehearsals for the musicals numbers, including mistakes and judy garland coughing).
the movies aren't necessarily blockbusters, but at $20+ for 7 films it's a no-brainer.

Thanks Bwsmom! I got it this time.
BTW, DVDTalk has a 12% off coupon that I applied (and it worked, though I didn't get the $1 shipping, I had to pay $1.40.) You can find it by clicking on "coupons" at the top of the page and scrolling to Overstock about half way down.

It's cheaper than that right now at Costco, if you're able to go there....
