I really wanted to pick something up. Checked out the Monsters/Madmen set. In the end I just couldn't see paying $30 for something I probably wouldn't watch

Can't believe I missed this thread yesterday.

Well, thanks to the OP, I've at least been able to pick up Monsters & Madmen, which I've had on my list for a while. Also decided to try out Border Radio and Flowers of St. Francis at those prices.

Picked up Monsters and Madmen and A Woman Ascends the Stairs. Like most I would have ordered more had I not already owned Green for Danger and Jigoku.

I've been waiting to pick up the M&M set since release. Thanks OP and everyone else for listing all the details.

I see that the prices have jumped on When A Woman Ascends...and The Flowers Of St. Francis. Monsters And Madmen is still cheap.

I doubt you will. Amazon probably has a shitload of these which weren't selling.

I'm sure there are other shitload of titles in Criterion line-up. Amazon may as well put those for similar prices too. I won't mind buying them all

NOOOO!

I brought up Monsters and Madmen and it came up as $28, then I put it in my cart and it came up as $71. Then I went back to the main page and the price was also changed!

Oh well, somebody on marketplace was selling it new for $26! Got it for $29 shipped, so hopefully that'll work out.

Interesting, yesterday only one seller had it for that: Amazon. The next seller was around $50.

I've gotten a shipping notice for one order of 4 titles but not the second order which was Monsters And Madmen even though it was placed not much later. Free shipping chosen.

My order from Saturday morning hasn't even entered "shipping soon" status, but at least the prices are still reflecting the discount.

Well, crap. I would've snatched up When a Woman Ascends the Stairs if I had seen this in time.

Yeah, same here. My Green for Danger is on the way though so I can't be too disappointed.
