When I went to pick mine up they gave me vol 1 + vol 2 for a total price of $7.50.

Thanks again OP.

Just got back from the store with my email notification. CSR was confused because the SKUs didn't match. Manager refused to give me anything even though items were supposedly available instore.

Just got both volumes 1 and 2 for $7.50 each (Vol. 2 was in-store pickup and Vol. 1 rang up at $7.50.)

Got both for $10 total (using a $5 reward certificate.)

Looks like they pulled them from my store as well. No cancellation e-mail but I logged in to see the order status and it had not available in store, etc.

Thanks OP! I did a store pickup and BB gave me Vol.2 despite the SKU mismatch. I picked up Vol.1 from the shelf and got that for $7.99 as well.

Even though the order was for Vol. 2, Vol 1. was waiting for me at the Reston, VA, BB, with not even an second glance from the clerk when the set rang up at $7.50. I got a whale of a deal. Thanks, OP!

None of the BB's in the Bloomington (IN) area have them in stock.... unless I want one that costs more, that is. Oh well.

Scored a copy of Vol. 2 with instore pickup. When I went in a Vol. 1 was waiting for me, brought it to the attention of the cashier, she sent someone to go get the right one, no fuss. Thanks OP!

Found a copy of Vol 1 at a different Best Buy. Only had one left so I lucked out.

Anyway, picked up Vol 1 and 2 for $15.

Thanks to the OP for this awesome deal.

Very big thank you to the OP.

Ordered vol2 online and while I was at the store for the pick up, I got vol1 as well. The shelf even had the card stating it was $7.50, for vol1 anyway.

Thanks OP! Just dropped by my store and picked up my copy of Vol. 2. Didn't even think of going to get Vol. 1. Smart thinking those of you that did.

I saw the post and made a copy of the online photo of vol #1 along with sku # and the price of 7.50 and when she rang in the sku # it came up 7.50. They had 2 copies of vol #1 and several of vol #2.
Happy Fathers Day !

My BB had a sign up at the pickup counter saying because there was a pricing error on the web site, season 2 would be rung up at the correct price of 29.99. I didn't even bother to find out which season they pulled for me. I just picked up a copy of S1 off the shelf and checked out normally.

Went to pick mine up in Fargo, ND. At first the guy got confused because he said it was back there but with someone else's name on it, but he checked again and vol. 2 was waiting for me, and it went smoothly from there. Thanks, OP!

When I picked up Vol 2 they really gave me Vol 2. I then went to another store and they had a copy of Vol 1 and it rang up for $7.50.

just got back from local best buy... they only had volume 2... it rang up for $22.99 so I said no thanks... they didn't have any volume 1 in stock... are the people that are getting the deal doing so buy finding both vol 1 & 2 in stock at the same place?

When I went to pick up my order, they had Vol 1 pulled for me. After checking out, I opened it up (it was wrapped in the online order sheet) and saw it was Vol 1. I mentioned it to the Customer Service rep and he looked at my order and went back and exchanged it for Vol 2 without any hassle.

I also picked up the last copy of Vol 1 at my local store.

Thanks OP! Bought online with pick up, turned out to be vol 2. Then confirmed Vol. 1 for 7.50. Excellent deal, will keep my eyes on the Best Buy site wider from now on.
