Went in for five. And is it just me or are all the used DVDs that were $5 out of stock now?

I don't see any of the used DVDs on the site right now other than You Don't Mess with the Zohan for $12.99.

In for four, hopefully they end up being at least gift appropriate.

While I sure hope not, it wouldn't be the end of the world. They had tons and tons of great used DVDs for $4.99. Many of which were new releases from just the past two or three months.

It says right on the description page that these are NEW DVDs.

I'm curious to see how long this thread gets in 5-10 days when everyone starts posting which titles they received!

Description said "NEW" and it also said MSRP of 12.99-29.99.

Of course msrp is misleading IMO. I own Uncle Buck, the MSRP is 19.99 (15-20 years ago), so I am not sure how to take the MSRP thing but who care, at these prices, if I do not want them, I can sell them to almost anyone for 1.25 each.

I'm expecting a lot of this: "Got 5 copies of (insert the worst film you can imagine here), will trade for anything."

Or, "there is no way this has a MSRP of $12. The one title I got that I do like is in fool screen!"

I'm in for five.

I'm figuring that if one of the title's is something I'm interested then, then it's a win. Plus, you can always turn it around easy at Moviestop/FYE/etc. with any promotions they have running.

Yup, exactly.

I decided to order 5 more and it went through, that is 10 total. I plan on gifting to the mailman, neighbor and give a few to the goodwill.

Oh well, I really don't want to do this...but would forever be kicking myself if anyone got anything good.

EDIT: I decided "what the hell" and just placed another order for 5 more. So it positively works. And the coupon is multiple use as well...
Figured out my problem. I was changing the quantity, then clicking 'continue' as opposed to updating my shopping cart. Finally got my order for 5 in...

ANybody know what "Invoiced" means on an order shipping confirmation?

I got an email that my order has shipped, but while my Mystery DVD's are listed in the email as "Item Filled", a couple other used items i ordered say "Invoiced"

I'd be happy with that. Heard it sucked, but at least I don't own it and it seems somewhat giftable.

That's not so bad for $0.99. I hope mine show up in the next couple days.

I wish it was the HD DVD. I've been wanting that. Hope that it isn't multiple copies of the same thing.
