You seem to possess the uncanny ability to find the most unbelievable deals. I'd pull the trigger on this one if i didn't have it already. Thx anyway.

That was quick: "We’re sorry, but the item titled Searchers (Blu-ray) is no longer available and has been removed from your cart."

Re: The Searchers (Bluray) $5.99*

I got the same message. I added the dvd to the cart and went to see if there may be anything else of interest and when I went to check out the item was removed from the cart. I did a search and Searchers came up at $5.99 but when I tried again to add it to the cart it gave me other places to purchase.

Thanks for the post OP, good deal....better if I could have gotten a copy.

Lethal Weapon, Otis, and Body Heat BD's are all 5.99 still... Searchers didn't have free shipping anymore, otherwise I would have bought it for 13.48 and called for a price adjustment. I have a PDF printout showing the 5.99 price...

If you're a member of BJs Wholesale Club, you can get it for $8.99. They have it for $13.99 and there's a $5 off any Blu-ray coupon that you can use that's good until May.

I added that one to the 3 cheaper to get into free shipping. Didn't own three of them even on SD, so took the plunge.

Re: The Searchers (Bluray) $5.99*

Probably get a cancellation email soon... But if this was truly a price "mistake", how did it happen to 4 different titles? Seems fishy to me...

Re: The Searchers (Bluray) $5.99*

I'm getting pretty tired of places like Amazon and Buy.com having deals which only last minutes or hours. If these were mistakes you'd think they'd start to be careful and not make them so often. The thing that gets me is these always appear when I'm away or off in a rush to work, and by the time I can deal with them some hours later, I can rest assured the deal will be as dead as a doornail. Every time they do this and I miss out, I have to repeat to myself "it's just a Blu-Ray movie. I already have it on SD. Life will go on if I don't get it. So just keep waiting until I see it this cheap again, whether it takes days, months, or years".

Re: The Searchers (Bluray) $5.99*

Well, my order shipped. 2 separate shipments for whatever reason (Lethal Weapon shipped separately). Great deal though. Thanks, TallGuyMe for starting this, and Jaymole for finding the Lethal Weapon deal, which helped me find the other deals...

Re: The Searchers (Bluray) $5.99*

How can this DVD be in buy.com's top 25 sellers?

Same here. Companies do some crazy wasteful shipping sometimes.

Also could have been a temporary price mistake, as that doesn't sound like it would normally be a top seller.
