I'd love to go with The Wire or OZ, but I think I'll hold out for a complete box set some time in the future. Though I might start NetFlixing The Wire now based on your recommendation.

Looks like Homicide is leading the race right now. Keep those opinions comin'. Thanks!

The Bourne Identity (1988) -- i think the Damon version is better, but it is pretty good, and for fans its worth $6.90
http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/redir...fier=WBD023565
I loved the ‘80s version, paid something like $23 for it on VHS. Sold it for ~ $20 on ebay when the DVD version came out. The DVD is now just under $7 after discount, a good deal.

Speaking of which, check out The 10th Kingdom if you like made for TV-movies, this was a great (and long) miniseries ($7.24 after discount).

WTF is wrong w/ them? I moved since my last order, went into my account, changed the addresses, it tells me since I changed my information I have to enter in a valid credit card number, which autopopulated from my last transaction, I click next. So then it tells me to click back and enter a valid CC number. So i delete all the characters, re-enter it, and expiration, click next, and it tells me the same thing. Their prices are awful overall compared to the summer sale. This is the valid credit card I use to purchase stuff, and doesn't want to accept it for some reason because I need to enter a different card in with the address change, screw them and I won't spend the hundreds of dollars of items in my cart. Now, or in the future. I'll just grab the good deals when they come by and never visit that site again. I absolutely hate it when people and companies can't act competently.

IN THE BEDROOM $7.55 In-stock
GRIFTERS (CE), THE $5.08 In-stock
WIRE-1ST SEASON, THE $37.35 In-stock
NARC (WS) $4.82 New-Price

Merchandise Total: $ 54.80

I would get some new releases (eg. The Maltese Falcon), but with christmas coming soon, and my girlfriend having already bought me some gifts, I don't want to risk buying something she's giving me. Plus, I still haven't watched the movies I got from the last sale.

Okay, I sent an e-mail to cancel that last order for the 3 titles they charged me full price for (all 11/14 releases). Then I put the three back in my cart, used the code "globe" this time... and now it's telling me again when I get to the "Checkout" page (just before selecting billing info) that all 3 titles are full price again and the discount is "$0.00"

Now what?

Okay, I changed browsers from Netscape to Explorer and now it says Forbidden Planet is a pre-order again. Has anybody in a timezone west of EST gotten an 11/14 order through successfully?

I hear you, lordwow. Same thing just happened to me, and it won't even let me go back and re-order!

EDIT: The site is going as spastic as it can get for me. I just typed in King Kong and it's showing descriptions for all the Kong titles but showing "Sorry this product is not available" in red bold font.

First Order - very ordinary compared to some of the posted lists, but here it is anyway:

Boris Karloff Horror Flicks Collection $14.68 $14.68
Ganja and Hess(SE) $13.30 13.30
Inner Sanctum Mysteries Collection - $17.41 $17.41
The Boris Karloff Collection - $16.80 $16.80
Maltese Falcon (SE/3D) - $15.82 $15.82
Busby Berkeley Collection - $33.09 $33.09
Film Noir Classics Collection, Vol. 2 - $29.95 $29.95
The Great Silence $11.98 $11.98

Tax $0.00
Shipping - $5.95
Total Order - $125.89

I had Hollywood's Legends of Horror in my shopping cart only to find it $2 higher the following day - found it for cheaper at another site so I removed it from my DDD cart and that's all I'll say about price increases during a sale.

Still the best deal in town!

I'll patiently wait for awhile 'til they fix it. Maybe I'll talk myself out of some purchases in the meantime...or just look for me.

I would rather have had a crap-out in the middle of ordering than deal with cancelling one full-price order and then not being to complete the discounted order.
