I Got Both "Lost Horizon" & "The Long Gray Line".

They Also Had All 3 Glamour Collections: Mae West, Carole Lombard, & Marlene Dietrich For $12.99

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Are you sure the Gidget set includes the Sally Field movie? The one I've got has the Sandra Dee version, plus Gidget Goes Hawaiian and Gidget Goes to Rome (a truly wretched movie). But not the 1965 Sally Field version.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Steve, the Sally Field GIDGET TV series is in a separate DVD set from the three GIDGET feature films you mentioned and I did see it at Costco as has been reported, but that was weeks ago. I also saw the three feature film set for sale there, but be aware that only the Sandra Dee film is widescreen, the other two are full screen.

And yes, ROME is terrible.

20th Cent. Fox Charlie Chan box sets 1 thru 5 @ $17.99 per box

Adventures of Briscoe County Jr. - $12.99

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Did yours have Set 3 of Charlie Chan? I already had 1 and 2 and bought 4 and 5 two weeks ago. I have going back every day or other day and still no set 3.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Ernest, Vol. 3 was at my Costco in Burbank, CA, but only one copy and that was two weeks ago. I wonder if it's a tough one to find. I wish I could afford all these, but even at $17.99 they are too expensive for me right now.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Just saw the Universal Comedy Favorites Collections with Schwarzenegger, John Candy, Tom Hanks and Steve Martin. $8 each

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Complete Gilligan's Island
Complete Kung-Fu
Complete Wonder Woman

Each $26.99.

Really wanted to pick up GI and KF but am FAB.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Damn good prices. Those are usually on sale during Black Friday, but these are better prices.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

The Gilligan's Island set from Costco is the newer one with 17 disc(2011) single side disc not the older 9 disc set(flippers)
Amazon has the 2011 listed as Full screen and 2007 listed as being Widescreen.
Not sure if this info is correct.Would like to find more info about this set,somewhere else besides Amazon.

These sets were $32.99 about 6 months ago.Great prices.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Both sets are full screen. I own both.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

I decide to buy these sets from Amazon because of lower prices,and it seem the Costco in Albany,Or does not stock their media section as good as other Costco in bigger cites.Also the 3 I bought from Amazon had the outer box.

Marlene Dietrich and Carole Lombard sets are both under $10 now.
Mae west is $13.99,but has been under $13.00 in the pass.

Thanks for the info.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Thanks for the heads-up. I picked up Gilligan's Island. I think that's the cheapest it's been anywhere I've seen.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Costco had the first Sam Goldwyn Warner Bros releases.


For $7.99 each.

Pride of the Yankees,
Best Years of Our Lives

Wuthering Heights has been OP for many years.
