This one - Avalon R3 EnterOne The quality over the R1 release is night and day. So, if you're region free, try to find a cheaper copy and pull the trigger. Btw - the soundtrack is full bitrate DTS and it's phenomenal!!!

just saw the set at best buy today for $179.89. freaked me out when i went to pick it up and there was fake grass on the top of the box, didn't expect that. i am interested in the set, but i don't know if i can drop another 143 bucks this sale.

Damn, my SFU just shipped today. Do I have to send it back to get the lower price?

Hi,

I see some people ordering the series "Six Feet Under". Is this a good show. I have never seen it and saw good reviews for it over at Amazon and here. I must admit the show's premise being that it is about a family who is in the business of preparing bodies to be buried isn't really that interesting. How can a show based on this manage to capture people's attention for 5 seasons? Can anyone enlighten me on this. Is this show worth buying?

Email Customer service and they should refund the difference.

As a casual fan, I can say that it is a very good show. I'm not sure that I'll want to rewatch it. I'm not buying it, but I can see why many are. $143 is a damn hot price. I generally hate television, but this show has a brain.

I think it had good acting, storylines and writing. Plus, watching someone die the first couple minutes of every show never gets old either.

Edited to add that I'm a casual fan too. I won't be buying the box set but not because the show wasn't entertaining or worthwhile.

I've placed 5 orders so far and have yet to receive an order confirmation or shipping notice even though two orders have shipped (according to my order status). I think I may have divined why. When I place an order, I copy the final order page, and then leave the site. I never click the "special offer" of course. I just noticed that below the special offer button is a "no, I don't want the offer, just send me order confirmation". I don't click that either; I guess I'm a little paranoid about clicking on anything that isn't directly related to my order. Perhaps DDDVD just says to itself, "This guy doesn't want to hear from us, so let's not send him any order info." What do you think?

Does anybody know if the Lord of War 2 disc that DDD carries is the correct widescreen transfer as I remember reading that they had fudged up the transfer putting it in a 1:78:1 ration when it should have been a 2 to something.

they are starting to show it on bravo nowadays starting with the first season, if you want to catch it for awhile before you buy the set, but by the time you get to watch it, the sale will be over.

Anyone know why DDD doesn't carry Jimmy Buffett - Live at Wrigley Field, Godsmack - Changes, or Roger Waters - The Wall (Live in Berlin)?

I can't find them listed on their site. I don't believe any of them are OOP.

I believe they took those down. That or it was a glitch.

Woo Hoo!

First order placed last Thursday night (7:20pm CST) with FREE shipping and it arrived yesterday! Everything is as ordered with no floaters and no dented corners on anything! Even the shipping box was in perfect condition! That's a personal best for a DDD shipment.

The show is really about the characters and relationships. What you've described above is probably 10-15% of the total focus of the show.

If you enjoy well-written drama, you'll love SFU.
