Any deals on the Alias Rimbaldi set?

I know last month, it was B&N (i think) that was having a B1G1 free sale on Boxsets, and I am pretty upset that I missed out on that deal (strapped for cash)

My attempts at aquiring this boxset via trade has fizzled as well. Does anyone have a lead on where I can land this thing semi-cheaply?

I think BJ's has it for $70 but it's been a looooong time since I've been there.

Wow $70 is an awesome price. Though the only BJ's around here have nothing to do with purchasing DVD's.

I think I passed on it when I read about the DVD scratching issues that the set has.

All mine were scuffed/scratched but they played fine. Of course I don't know how they are going to be in the long run, but now they seem ok.

Interesting. Is this set like the Buffy set, where they packaged the previous set's DVD's into the new packaging?

Not at all.


I read about the scratching / scuffing here:

See Packaging specifically.

I got one from Borders.com and it arrived really badly scratched. I returned it for store credit without a hassle.

Hmmmm....I think I will wait for the inevitable $19.99 per season sale which we all know will happen eventually.

Crap! Mine is still sealed, and I got it for a pretty good price (b1g1 through BN). I may just ebay it then and wait for the individual seasons to go on-sale.

You can get the discs replaced by calling the Buena Vista number that's on the DVDs.

I think it already is:

Circuit City prices for March 4 - 10 list Alias S5 for $19.99 (then says S1-S4 is on sale as well):
