Fantastic deal for those of you who haven't seen it.

Or maybe is Fox trying to rid supplies of this for the pending BR release?!!?

Or if it's a misprice expect Amazon to cancel orders or charge the difference to your credit card if they accidently ship them.

The 4 disc Deluxe Collector's Edition may have extras but I don't think they have DTS

According to a thread in the DVD Talk section, all the extras included in the other regions 4 disc sets are included in the US R1 release, although some are as hidden easter eggs.

All releases of Titanic have both DTS 6.1 ES and DD 5.1 EX.

Paramount distributes the film in the U.S. and Canada. Fox handles distribution for the rest of the world.

Fox Japan & Fox Korea released the same set as the R1 version. All other Fox releases have the fourth disc with the HBO featurette, 3 shorts inspired by Titanic, and trailers & TV spots.

The three disc is fine at 9.99. Too bad I already paid more.

It is advertised on the shelf at my Local Best Buy for 9.99, but it was sold out. Naturally, the store manager would not give a raincheck because it was not advertised. Please steer clear of BB whenever possible. This store has been a nightmare for the past five years and I have hardly ever been able to buy an item and get out unscathed in some way.

I also dislike bestbuy, but it is the policy of most stores to only give out rain checks for advertised items.

The skits are hidden on the R1 3-disc. The HBO special and trailers & tv spots didn't make it though.

I just bought the Brazilian 4 disc edition (which didn't have DTS). I switched out the first two discs and sold them on Ebay.

How did you get free shipping? The site keeps wanting to charge me for shipping; fortunately, both items are available for instore pickup (and I wanted to get a Decemberists CD anyway).

Still would be nice to have them shipped since the local BB is in a horrible location. Traffic congestion is insane...way too many businesses together (Circuit City is across the road, K-Mart & Home Depot next to them, etc.).

He meant he got the Titanic 3 disc and Bones on Amazon for $29.98 with free shipping.
