Fuck me sideways, and call me James. Well, so much for the Steelbook editions. 6 Blu-ray Bonds for around $8 a piece is fine with me. I'll forge my own steel cases in my backyard and buy a crucibel with the savings, thanks.

I signed up for Bill Me Later last summer to take advantage of a coupon on a routine purchase. Then this new $10 off deal appeared for the holiday season and I was able to use my account again last month. Perhaps others will appear in the future.

Yes, it was a bit of a hassle to have yet another (virtual) credit card account to fuss with. But the additional coupons are a bonus.

FWIW.

Actually the Price match policy doesn't work at all anymore. I had an item drop $30 in two weeks. When I contacted them, they stated if I wanted the lower price I needed to buy it again. When I inquired what to do with the old one, they said to return it. What a hassle. It would be easier for them to just match the difference. oh-well.

Hoping someone knows enough about Amazon's return policy to help me out on this.

Bought the three Connery Bonds earlier in the day with the Buy 3, Get $20 off promotion, but before FRWL and Thunderball came down to $17.xx (were $23.99 apiece I believe).

If I re-order them with the extra savings now, will I be able to return the first batch for a full refund? And will I spend the savings I make shipping the return back to Amazon?

Thanks in advance.

Cancel your order. If you cannot cancel, you might try returning the shipment to Amazon unopened (you could even email Amazon to have them try and cancel an order for you. Tell them you ordered the wrong titles.) Ship the package--if it gets shipped to you--media mail. Should only be $4 or less or something. If you want to get ahead, you'll need to buy 6 Blu-ray titles, or 10 Blu-ray titles to make it worth your time.

Thanks for the help. I think the $10 I'll end up saving even after shipping the first order back will be worth it.

Anyone else having an issue getting the price down to $47.44? I only see $5 for 'Best Value Savings' and $20 for 'Blu-ray Promotion'.

I picked up four Blu-rays for $42.46 shipped. $20 from the Blu-ray deal, and $10 from BML. That stacking discount is fantastic on those pairs of Bonds. Unfortunately, From Russia With Love and Dr. No are the only ones I need to own from this list, even at $10/each, and I got in on the Dr. No $8.99 deal.

Kung Fu Panda
Live Free or Die Hard
Juno
From Russia With Love

-beebs

UPDATE: Well, a little while later and Juno drops $3. Sweet. Now its four movies for $39.46... under $10 each shipped.

So it's not just me! It also looks like the $5 BVS discount is gone as well

I'm still seeing the all the discounts, just For Yours Eyes Only went up to $23.99 now, bringing the total upto $55 for the 6 movies. -$15 for the pairs of bonds, -$50 for the promo.

If you dropped the BMLSAVES Bill Me Later code on that one, it would drop to $45 for 6 movies... or approximately $7.50 each. That's a fabulous deal considering people were thrilled with $65 for all 6 movies in the crummy 3-disc packaging a couple weeks ago.

I added all 6 Bonds to my cart. I see the $50 promo (split as -$30.47 and -$19.53), but only see -$5 Best Value Savings. Am I doing something wrong?

Holy cripes. Picked up Iron Man this morning with a non Blu-ray related item. Woke up at 5:00am est but was so out of it I was having trouble performing simple tasks. It took like two minutes to figure out how to turn my alarm off.

I don't know if it was the time or what but the posts were funny this morning when amazon didn't update the prices right at 5:00am est.
