Dead Like Me: The Complete Collection - $29.99 (Amazon DOTD 5/28)



The official tv week was a bust, but now they've come back and finally thrown out a good deal...go figure. The set usually goes for around $50. It includes both seasons (29 episodes) and the movie on 9 discs. Here's the link

Apparantly, someone at Amazon.com can't read.

They are offering a triple pack bundle when you click to see the product page.

For $59.47, you get this set, the Life After Death movie, and Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. There is a problem with this bundle though, the Life After Death movie is already in the set. So you would end up with two copies of the movie.

Just get this set for $30 and the Dr. Horrible disc for $10 and its a better bundle.

^I don't think it's a bundle they are offering. It says 'items frequently bought together' and if you add up the individual prices for each item there is no difference between buying them together or separately.

But for them to say people bought the complete set and the movie together is a bit silly. If that's the case, I'm guessing there were a lot of returns.

I had a $20 credit and after reading the reviews on IMDB and Amazon I'm picking this one up as a blind buy for $10. Doesn't look like I'll be disappointed. Thanks!

Great series, at least season 1. I know I need the movie, but think I already have the seasons.

Yep, I've had a problem all of my life. At one point, I knew what I had because I was diligent about putting everything in DVDspot. But then the Spot closed down and I decided I didn't like any of the alternatives, so I am "between" cataloging systems right now.

Awesome! One of my discs in Season One was pretty scratched up so I'm happy to replace it and S2 with a much smaller set. And it includes the movie? Niiiice!

Yeah its a Frequently Bought Together recommended bundle with an option to add all three to the cart at once. Do people just not read descriptions?

I bit the bullet and ordered it! I haven't seen the series, but I've been wanting, mainly since Bryan Fuller was involved. I'm not big on TV blind buys, but I just had to jump for the price.

I miss DVD Spot so much. Just went on DVD AF a couple minutes ago to add in some titles I recently picked up and just can't stand using it anymore. To me it feels really sloppy and I liked it the way it was before they changed to V2.0 or whatever. Anyways back on topic this set is pretty tempting to pick up but I'll most likely pass on it since I've got so many other shows to watch right now.

Very cool. This is exactly the deal that I was hoping for all last week.

Already own the sets and the movie, so this would've been a great deal. Anyone even remotely interested should definitely pick it up. The series is phenomenal. The movie...not so much, but still a great price.

Was kind of on the fence but decided i'd regreat it in a week if I didn't get it. Looks like it might take awhile to get here.

Re: Dead Like Me: The Complete Collection - $29.99 (Amazon DOTD 5/28)

I got this a while ago, and the first season is missing disc 2 but has two copies of disc 3.

The store won't take it back because it's been over a month.

Is there anything I can do about it?
