Yeah, I'm curious about this too. Has anyone purchase an HD-DVD from Blockbuster -- and if so, did it come with the standard HD-DVD case?

DVD Polizei

I ordered 3 titles. Was hoping to get Royale Mayonnaise or whatever you call it. But no go. Anyway, I'll be glad when HD DVDs are gone.

I wouldn't expect the standard HD DVD cases. Just a hunch. But I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised.

Abe.

I'm just glad I was able to find Into The Wild at a fairly decent price. I still ended up buying ten movies and spent about 70 bucks.

JoeySeven

Not sure about Blockbuster,but the HD-DVD I bought from Hollywood Video(in store) about a one month ago came in standard DVD cases with HD-DVD slim case art work or cover.Hope this helps.

Not worth trying to find the needle (actual hd-dvd) in the haystack (regular DVDs) for not much more savings than finding it on ebay.

EDIT: Nevermind.

Wow. I decided to try for the "Oceans" trilogy, just incase they added more to the stock levels.

Got all the way to the submit order screen before Blockbuster let me know that it was OOS. Ridiculous website. Congrats to all that got this for $7.02- I only own the first movie (in SD) and would have loved to pick up all 3 cheaply.

jlm71176

Thanks. Picked up Zodiac, which I don't have on DVD anyway. The rest I'm going to hold off on until I turn Blu.

Jtnguyen12

All HD movies is Pre-owned or brand new ??

TGM

read the thread title genius.

ENDContra

I like how the site lets you add anything you want to the cart, and then when you click "submit order", it tells you most of your cart is unavailable, and tells you to remove those items yourself.

DVD Polizei

Yeah, some online businesses are just fucktards when it comes to commerce.

gryffinmaster

Got a shipment confirmation on Zodiac this morning.

JimRochester

I picked up a few. They ended up being $6.45 each with the shipping. I also have ordered a bunch from iNet video for the same amount. The only advantage is it has a few titles not easily found elsewhere. There are several more I wanted not available

I'm buying more HD right now than BD because of the prices.

DVD Polizei

FYI, they have free shipping. I found a few more titles just for kicks and it was just over $30. So, with the free shipping, this is a pretty good deal. 4 titles for $22.36 (no tax for me). About $5.60 a disc.

bmello

The two times I've seen used HD-DVDs in Blockbuster they were not in the original cases.

Abe.

I guess that's because they used rental cases for that product. They may use the original cases for inventory in their warehouse. I just hope that's the case.

I've received shipping confirmation emails for everything I ordered.

runner001

How were able to get free shipping? Won't you share?

I got shipping confirmation today too. Went with Ray and Ocean's Trilogy for ~ $14. Would not have ordered anything if not for the Trilogy.

DVD Polizei

I didn't do anything--except for inputting the holidaysurprise code. I just put four HD DVDs in my cart, checked out becaused I wanted to see if they were re-stocking some titles, and I noticed there was no charge for shipping. But it was a purchase over $30, so not sure if that matters.

JoeySeven

I just checked the site,and now they have free shipping..
I have no idea when this started.But it drops the cost about another $1.00 or so..

But I place a order 2 or 3 days ago,and they charge me shipping and handling charges for my order.

Damn them all to hell.... :-)

runner001

Thanks for letting me know they have free shipping now on the site. I emailed them and also called them on my way home from work. I fought for my $1.88 for the two HD DVDs I ordered.

At first, the CSR said that the free shipping is a special promotion so she can't refund the shipping. I emphasized that it is NOT any special promotion and that I can go on the site now to place an order and not be charged shipping. She insisted that she couldn't refund. I asked if BBV would rather I refuse the order when it arrives, while I go online now and place another order, which would cost them more money in the end. I was put on hold while she "investigated"....after a long wait, (loads of daytime minutes which I never use up + was driving home = wait didn't matter to me) I was refunded my precious $1.88.

Just received 20 blockbuster blue packages in the mail. All of the HD-DVDs I ordered were in their original purple cases. (Aside from Royal Space Force, which came in its original white case). Interestingly enough, all of the regular dvds I ordered looked brand new, and did not come in regular blockbuster rental cases. Very happy indeed.

Oceans 11, 12, 13 arrived individually, not in the Oceans Trilogy box.

GenPion

Mine arrived in original cases with cover art as well. They are clearly used but in good condition. I am going to place a new order now for some more HD-DVD's!

UPDATE:

And here is my order:

Lake House [HD] 7.99
Beerfest [HD] 7.99
Aviator [HD] 7.99
Darkman [HD] 7.99
Carlito's Way [HD] 7.99

Road Warrior [HD] 7.99

Not bad at all, I'd say.

Ordered the Oceans trilogy, received Oceans 11 and 12 today, the individual releases, both discs are completely hashed. The invoice makes it look like all 3 should have been in the package.
