Re: General Costco DVD Thread
I went to my closest Costco in Morrow GA. And they have completely done away with all their DVD's, Blu-rays, CD's and Video Games. I asked an employee were they had moved them and he replyed they were not carrying these products anymore. Almost made me want to get rid of my membership on the spot if this is going to happen to all Costcos I probably will.

My Costco was down to 1 table of DVD/Blu/Software. Don't think I saw any music or video games. Someone has said that this is temporary and the selection will be back to normal for the holiday shopping season. I don't know about that. We're less than a month away now and there is a lot of winter clothing occupying the tables that normally were entertainment items. Books still has 2 or 3 tables.

My Costco started shelving them on the floor. I thought they were overstock from the table but they were not. I guess you have to get on your knees now. Makes the Walmart bin look like pleasure to visit.

I don't think Costco cares about home video anymore. Earlier this year my local Costco stacked all the videos on shelves over the book table making it very, very difficult to browse. I think the writing is on the wall.

Looks like they are changing over from keeper cases to slim cases(I hope I'm saying this right).As they had both kinds at Costco.
Same thing here,blu and dvd selection keeps getting smaller.
The Original Christmas Classics
has a $5 off coupon starting on 11/10

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
Sadly it seems we're eventually going to be left with 2 choices: streaming videos or ordering online. (It's rather tough to do pricematching ordering online.) I already can envision the day when every major retailer's entire movie section is one tiny section with only the most recent new releases... basically what Borders became before they went under. How sad.

I don't know if it has been mentioned but my local Costco had the "Looney Tunes Complete Collection" for $99.99 it comes in a box with all the Golden Collection sets inside, the cases itself aren't the cardboard ones but newer clear plastic TV DVD cases. Its a good deal considering each season goes for around $20 and up

I haven't done the research (always due to lack of time) to determine if the 6 volumes they released covers every Looney Tunes short ever created, but somehow I doubt it, so calling it "Complete" would be a misnomer (as so many "complete" collections are).

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
Does this mean the "Complete" Looney Tunes Collection is just a repackaging of the 6 volumes they released separately?

Got the last copy of the 'Tracy and Hepburn' collection - its the definitive collection, not the signature collection and is a great buy at $14.99.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
That TRACY AND HEPBURN set is a steal at even triple the $15 price point.
It's all nine films they did together and Warner went the extra mile to license DESK SET from Fox, GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER from Sony, and STATE OF THE UNION from Universal.
