Picked up the BSG BD set. Decided to wait until the weekend for the rest. Everything else I wanted is out of stock, so what difference would a few days make?

I was charged for my 4th (and probably final) order of the sale... The Blob criterion. I haven't received a shipping email and it still shows as backordered, but I'm expecting it to ship soon since i was charged.

You probably weren't charged. If it shows as BACKORDERED, when you place an order they place a hold on you credit card for 2-3 days and then it drops off your card. When they actually ship, then they actually charge. That's the way most places operate.

SethDLH

well it was ordered on the 23rd, and hadn't seen any hold or charge on the card until now. I've had this happen before and its never taken this long

so say we frackin all.

No canceling BSG for lower price for me. They drafted my bank yesterday. Oh well, still a good deal.

Bottom line price on BSG BD after the new lowered price and Bing: $143.20. That's 59% off the admittedly inflated list price of $349.98. Definitely a good deal. And in anticipation of this I sold all my old SD BSG at half.com a few weeks ago. I had never even opened Season 4.0. I got close to what the new set cost me.

And while I was the first to post the news about the price drop here, I have to thank andruuuuuuuu at blu-ray.com who posted it yesterday at 6:04pm CDT. I did my cancellation and reorder and then I saw no one had posted it here.

Regarding Battlestar Galactica complete series Blu-Ray...

Once The Plan and those webisodes are released in a couple months (I guess we won't get that special making of not included in this set), is there a FAQ that tells the uneducated (like me) at what point during watching the complete series to watch these? Are they going to be sold together or as 2 separate Blu-Rays?

Eric F

OK, I called them up and got them to adjust the BSG set to adjust to the new pricing, so apparently you don't have to have them cancel it and reorder. It should automatically adjust on Bing because it goes by the final receipt and not by what the original purchase price is.

deep discount customer service did a great job handling my BSG price adjustment. It took all of 1 minute. Awesome job. Can't wait for this to get here.

Those who received price adjustments, had you already been charged?

I called this morning and was on hold for only a few minutes before I got a hold of a very nice customer service representative who offered to just adjust my price when I asked for her to cancel the BSG Complete Series Blu-ray set. Total cost was around $151 and some change (not counting the Bing cashback - so the total cost including that should be around $142).

Awesome deal for one of my all time favorite series!

Chew

I guess it depends on who you get ahold of: my CSR would not adjust the order price on the BSG set. She canceled it instead and told me to reorder. (it was on backorder)

Either way, thanks for the price update.

stingermck

Mine is Processing and ive already been charged, so I may just let it go.

The price for the DVD complete set dropped also.... by a whopping 85 cents!

I am still on the fence about ordering this one. Love the show. Great price. But.... the reviews on Amazon from people who just received the complete set are pretty negative about the packaging. No episode listing? That's a major bummer. And cardboard sleeves (or slots more accurately) to hold the discs? Sounds a lot like the Wild Wild West complete set packaging, although at least that one came with a booklet that lists episodes and maps them to disc numbers. And the outer box itself sounds too big to fit on a standard shelf.

Given the negative packaging reviews, I am tempted to just buy all the seasons separately from this sale, which would cost me about $29 extra compared to the complete set.

OK, I called DD I got a noted placed on my account to make the BSG blu-ray price adjustment when the item ships. Now the bad news...there are 1,100 outstanding orders for this item. They told me more are on the way, but I'll probably see my boxset in about a month. It's a good thing I am not in a hurry. If you have already been billed you got it while still in stock.

chris_sc77

Honestly I would do this . I really like the packaging a lot for the individual releases. I think the complete series packaging looks kinda cheap.

sensui

Called in and got the price adjustment for $151. Note already posted and will adjust in 2-3 business days. My order status is closed as it's already shipped. Pleasant surprise from the disappointment I felt refreshing the carts for a hour that night. Looking forward to getting this.

So tempted for the BSG blu ray. With so many purchases made through Columbia house lately, I don't know how much I can justify it - other than being a good deal. Plus, with a baby on the way in February, I would definitely have to hide this purchase for a little bit....especially if they lower the price again.

As with others, I don't care too much for the packaging. I saw that the blu version has a UK release in September for 114 pounds (plus shipping/fees/etc) - but I really like their packaging. Of course, it is still a month away and packaging could aways change.

Nothing to do with the sale, but I was on a comic news site highlighting eBay sales of goodies from the San Diego comic con, and the numbered Dollhouse Blu hit $155 on eBay! That is nuts, the SD Blu set is the EXACT same set I will be receiving (hopefully soon), and only paid $36 (even less with Bing cashback). This means folks are paying $119 more than they should for this 'con-exclusive' blu ray, all for a number and letter from Joss Whedon (that is not even hand-signed). I would be hard-pressed to spend that much on the Dollhouse Blu even if I was Joss's "#1" fan.

AlexOi

New package. It is the UK version?


I cancelled my BSG blu ray order and order it again. Now it is $151.

Snowmaker

Watchmen BD is back in stock and mine shipped today. It better have the 3-D slipcover or I'm going to send it back. That cover is too cool looking.

Inhumans99

Whoa, Murmur, if that was the packaging for the North America complete Blu BSG set, I would have to seriously consider picking it up. As it is, the only season I need to catch up on is 4.5, so thank goodness for the 25% off sale.

PJ

Wait, you're saying they adjusted your price after they'd already billed you? Oddly I tried the same thing and was told "no" and to ship it back when I get it. Mine is already on its way as well.

RobLutter

Called them in the AM to adjust my BSG set... you could tell the guy had done it about a million times today as it took all of 30 seconds.

He also informed me that my order has SHIPPED (or was just about to go out the door). So the charge will be whatever the difference is refunded back to my credit card.

EDIT: And I just got shipping confirmation. Very impressed.
