I ordered one HD movie for $3 + $3 shipping on Tuesday. I received it today, Thursday.

I also ordered from Closeoutmovies. The package came from BSE Entertainment in Hawthorne, CA (this is near the Los Angeles International Airport). They sent it first class mail.

Hopefully BSE sent your package first class mail...

It's worth also linking to the review here at DVDTalk, particularly the Video "Update" section in which it says that the Chronos HD-DVD release is really 1080p, not 1080i, which was due to a misinterpretation of the somewhat confusing included text with the disc (that's meant to indicate info for playback on 1080i HD-DVD players, not that the disc itself is encoded as interlaced):

Seller traderbora now lists 125 titles available for $5.94 with free shipping (fulfillment by Amazon). Check the individual titles before checking out in case some competition gets going and titles start to drop further.

I did receive my order today. So, it wasn't so bad. When I saw MEDIA MAIL, I got worried. Because if there's any problems, it could take weeks for a resolution.

Would be nice if there were other studios besides UNIVERSAL. I swear to God, people will be buying Universal HD DVDs in the year 2012, and in 2015, we'll all be getting them in our cereal boxes whether we want them or not.

The Pianist
Bourne Identity

Eternal Sunshine

It looks like some Paramount titles have been added from closeoutmovies. Prices vary, but no free shipping.

I was going to order couple of HD/SD but i am not sure about one thing. Does HD/SD combo DVDs have two discs in it (one being SD and the other is HD) or does that mean it has only one disc that we can play on any player?

jeffrey r

^^^ The latter. It is a double-sided disc, one side with the HD DVD version of the movie, the other side with the SD version of the movie.

I placed three orders from CloseoutMovies. Two directly from them and 5 which were fulfilled by Amazon.com on 01/18/09. The five from Amazon.com arrived on 01/23/09 and the 2 from CloseoutMovies arrived on 01/24/09. And these were all shipped to Hi. I just placed 3 more separate orders with CloseoutMovies.

I was worried about my order too, but it finally came today. You never know with free shipping how long it'll take.

kenbenobi

I got my order of 17 titles pretty quick. Sucks that most of them went down $1 now. The 2 titles I didn't order that I wish I had are no longer for sale.

thanks for the post for traderbora..found some more I did not have yet..

theWitcher

I think they are the same seller (BSE Entertainment.)

From two different Your Amazon.com Order Has Shipped emails:

closeoutmovies items (Sold by BSE ENTERTAINMENT INC)
traderbora items (Sold by BSE ENTERTAINMENT INC)

FWIW, at the time I ordered the traderbora items were 6 cents cheaper.

kenbenobi

Very strange, since traderbora has some titles that closeoutmovies does not. But I guess it makes sense, since the prices matched 100% on every title that both carried. So if you saved 6 cents on your traderbora order, they must have since synched their prices. I don't see any price differences currently. But what would be the point of starting a new seller name? closeoutmovies had a VERY high feedback rating, and traderbora is fairly new with only 87. Seems pointless to start over...

GMan2819

Just out of curiosity, are you guys buying movies you've never owned or are you replacing your old SD copies? For the most part, I've been buying movies I've never owned and only replacing a few select SD discs i.e. non-anamorphics, non-collector editions, etc. Maybe if the prices were in the $3-4 range, I would consider replacing whatever I can find.

BTW, traderbora was known about for at least a week. It pays to read old posts sometimes.

kenbenobi

That's what I'm doing, buying pretty much any title I don't already own, as long as it is 6 bucks or less. But I'm trying not to go hog wild. I won't get a movie I have absolutely no interest in. And I don't want to spend too much at once. But I'm thinking at some point soon, I'll have the largest HD-DVD collection of ANYONE!

kenbenobi

For the most part, I have never owned them. If I own them, but the SD is still sealed, I'll upgrade and give the SD as a gift. But I have probably double-dipped on 25 titles or so (out of over 250 HD-DVD's), for movies I really really enjoy... In the order I just placed, I only owned Coming to America, and it was the original release. Worthy of the SE upgrade... In my 17 title order on the previous page, I upgraded Spy Game and Born on the Fourth of July. Dunno if those were worthy upgrades or not. Two great films though...

Dunno how I missed Abintra's post. And I read this thread a lot, too!
