Also, I received an e-mail from DVDPlanet advertising the sale, and the fine print read that the coupon was for one-time use only (per account, address, household, etc.). Unlike me, I hope everyone else thinks long and hard and puts together a "final" order before using the coupon! If I decide to buy anything else from the sale, it will have to be with DD.

There was a day where I used the code twice and it worked. They shipped the items today with all the correct discounts. If the codes work for me again, I'm gonna use them.

I just used 25OFFSALE for the second time tonight and it applied the discount. The first time was last Thursday (11/6/08)

I ordered from both DD and DVD Planet on Thursday afternoon. I paid for shipping on both. I got the ship email for the DD order Saturday, but nothing from DVDP yet. I paid twice as much for the goddamn shipping at DVD Planet. What the hell are they waiting for?

Well, after a couple of attempts over the weekend to contact them and receiving auto-replies of "your problem has been forwarded to..." they went ahead and shipped my order today at the full prices without ever addressing the issue I had. Thanks a lot, guys.

Looks like I'll be on the phone tomorrow.

Due to their insane shipping costs to Canada, DDD lost another sale to DVDPlanet. Now whether they're ALL in stock is another matter I guess:

Chuck - The Complete First Season (BLU) - $47.22
Firefly - The Complete Series (BLU) - $26.22
Hellboy II: The Golden Army Collector's (BLU) - $36.72
Smallville - The Complete Seventh Season (BLU) - $41.97
Terminator - The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season (BLU) - $22.47
Shipping: $15.25
Total Order: $189.85

You might want to check your Firefly - The Complete Series order. The Blu-Ray is coming up $47.22 and $26.22 for the DVD version. I sure wish it was $26.22 for the Blu-Ray!!

I think he might have reversed the prices for Chuck and Firefly. Firefly should be the 47.22 one...

Yup. Same problem for me. Disney wouldn't let DD sell it at a reduced price and now DVD Planet has "discontinued" it.

Since you're buying two of the new Disney treausure sets, you can go to your local Best Buy and get a deal--two for $40. (Not as good of a price as 25% off at DD or Planet though.)
