Blade: The Series: The Complete Series -- $14.99 IN STORE @ BEST BUY
Wow! I just ran into a bit of great luck at Best Buy. I had my Fry's ad in hand to price match today's release of Blade: The Series - The Complete Series from $34.99 (Best Buy price listed online) to $25.99 (FRY'S in-store price).
But when I grabbed my set at Best Buy, I saw the sticker price said $14.99!!! And this wasn't the sale price. It was their every day price sticker!
I quickly checked all the other sets in store and all were priced the same. I figured when I got to the register I'd have to argue that their sticker price didn't match the ring-up price of $34.99.
But no! It rang up $14.99! Great price! 13 episodes for only $14.99!
So get to your Best Buy store quickly to pick up a set. This is the lowest price I've seen for the set, by far. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they realize their mistake and raise the price.
Has anyone else come across this luck?

All marked $14.99 in Nashua, NH as well--sticker even says complete series.
Was also able to use the new 10% off movies coupon and get it for $13.49.

bought this today...thanks for the heads up OP...from what i can see the first disc of the set is what was the House of Chthon Pilot DVD
Disc 1: Episodes 1-2 (with making of documentary and commentaries from House of Chthon DVD)
Disc 2: Episodes 3-5
Disc 3: Episodes 6-9
Disc 4: Episodes 10-13
also...http://tv.msn.com/new-on-dvd/tv/?GT1=7703
In the small-screen series that ran on Spike TV for a single season, Kirk "Sticky" Jones takes over the role of Blade, the immortal half-man, half-vampire warrior created by Marvel comics and brought to the big screen by Wesley Snipes. In this incarnation, the supernaturally enhanced vampire hunter takes on a covert vampire cabal (led by Neil Jackson and Jessica Gower) bent on (what else?) world domination through the development of a new vampire superbreed. Jones glowers and growls his lines in a fair impression of Snipes, Jill Wagner is an Iraq war vet who returns home to find her twin brother murdered by the cabal and herself turned bloodsucker by same, and Nelson Lee is Blade's wisecracking weapons man. The feature-length pilot was previously released on DVD as the single-disc "Blade: House of Chthon." This set packages up that disc (complete with two commentary tracks and a documentary featurette) with the balance of the series (13 episodes, if you count the pilot as two episodes) in a four-disc digipak.

when I saw the post yesterday, I thought it was b.s., but I just went and picked one up myself, and can confirm, definately for real!. All copies were marked $14.99 in store, and this is the full series, not just the pilot. Anyone thinking of getting this should jump on it as it is more than likely a pricing error from thier main offices. I would assume that once they realize it, they will be marked up closer to the list price of I believe $39.95. This was a totally blind buy for me, but I enjoyed all of the blade movies, so I took a shot.

How'd you get nailed on the coupon? Because Blade: The Series is a "new release"? Or because coupons that you're SUPPOSED TO PRINT OUT say no copies in fine print on it?

Thanks OP!
Picked up a copy at my local BB. A complete blind buy for me, but I really enjoyed all 3 Blade films (including Trinity).

I'm posting here what I put at CAG:
I saw this posted at DVDTalk earlier today (I didn't have time to post it here; sorry guys), but I ran over during lunch and picking up a copy. Supposedly they're doing an extremely limited run on this series, though it just came out. It's already deleted from BB's system, so you any CAGs that want to pick this up better do so soon rather than later.
If you ask them to look this up in their computer, it says deleted.
