My problem with the BVS discount is that Amazon is splitting my order up into sections, and if the proper pairs don't fall into the same section, then the BVS doesn't show up for that pair. And it appears to be random where the split happens. Fun.

Anyone know how long the special on the Bond movies is for ? Looks like the buy 6 @ $50 discount is good for a while, but are they marked down even more ?

The other 4 were Doubtfire, Die hard, Windtalkers, Mr mag.... I found this out though, this may be the problem. I have 2 amazon.com accounts, 1 prime and 1 regular. I can not get the right prices through the one with the prime (free 2 day ship) but on my other account with FSSS everything comes out just right. Don't know if that's the issue but that's what I noticed. Has anyone been able to get it to work with a prime account?

For those having problems with the Bond Blu-ray discount. If you have Prime and are having the problem with them sperating your order, try switching your shipping to standard. That seemed to work for me and after I placed the order I was able to go back and switch the shipping back to free 2 day and the discounts were still there.

You're right about the prime vs. non-prime. I couldn't get the extra $10 BVS discount to show on my prime account. I even played with the grouping and shipping options on the checkout page, but nothing worked. I switched to my non-prime account and got the $47.44 total. Thanks for the tip!

EDIT: I got it to work on my Prime account by having everything in my cart, logging out of my account, and then logging back in. When I checked the final checkout page, it showed the correct amount.

Anyone else afraid we'll never see so many deals on the next round(s) of Bond blu-rays? I thought I did well on opening day at Best Buy. If not for the steelbooks, I'd be kicking myself.

Best Buy got a Sony Blu-ray player deal for $199. If you sell all those movies you got for $54.40 than you might be able to buy one

May be a response to B&N.com where it is 69.99. I got it there with my membership discount + 15% off with M8H7N3F code and total was $53.54 plus tax. Between this and the Bonds, I'm way overspending this year especially considering I already have the Ape head DVD set and all the Bond DVD's.

You know...I was just able to talk some sense into myself. I just canceled some stuff from a pending order. Only thing I have left in the order is Sky Captain and Predator..both blu rays for a combined total of about $25 including shipping. I'll be happy with that, and a order I made late last night(already shipped)... gotta stop spending so much money. I'll probably stay off this site for a couple days too. lol
