Thanks for the $5. Just ordered Doctor Who: The War Games for $24.97, or what it would have cost had there been sale with 25% off their regular prices.

I wish I would've known about this $5 coupon before I placed my order Thursday night.

Anyway, I got my package today and the secret prize was something called Buzzerks, a pair of sunglasses that act like bug eyes. Lame. Maybe my little nephew will like it.

I mentioned earlier in this thread that it would probably be a funstuff item they were unable to sale.

Now I'm happy I forgot to use the code.

Those folks at Microsoft will find any excuse to cancel a rebate especially if there is a coupon involved.

I got a New York Jets set of Uno cards.

If I knew any Jets fans I would give it to them, but I don't.

dullboy

Yeah, I figured as much.

For those of you that used the first coupon code, here's another coupon code for $5 off of $25 that can be used for a second purchase (or your first if that's the case).

FLNHEICBBA

The Cow

Worked for me. Thanks!

I got a $5 code by email after I ordered the Prisoner. I guess it's one time use? It's different from what lanemyer74 posted.

I'm on the fence about getting the Blu-ray version of The Prisoner complete series for $35.... hmmm.

Murmur

So was I, but for $35 - the next closest is Best Buy at $49.99 and then Amazon at $51.49. I have heard too many good things about this show to pass up at a great price. Besides, I will share this with my dad as well (who was going to buy it).

I was also going to get Farscape, but with BB being the same after tax as DD, I will go locally on that one (where I also got John Adams on blu).

Now...Homicide is so very tempting as well....but that one I think I can hold off on.

I don't believe anyone is obligated to purchase a commodity item from a retailer merely because that retailer has given them good service and/or good prices in the past. A DVD is a DVD, no matter where you buy it. It's not like buying a restaurant meal where the cheapest could be far from the best.

On the other hand, DD is not obligated to continue offering those sales to customers either, especially if their business model shows that they can be more profitable with a different pricing model. Some people on this Board have acted as if DD has betrayed their friendship or loyalty in some way by discontinuing the 25% sale.

I will still buy from DD when they have the best price. I will still buy from DD when the cheaper alternative is someone of questionable reliability. I will still buy from DD if there isn't a huge differential in price and the convenience factor makes it worth the difference. If I don't, I wish them no ill will. They haven't cheated me or ripped me off. They're in business to make money and I wish them well, because if they go out of business, other online retailers are more likely to be less competitive in their pricing.

I got the code from a forum I visit frequently, it wasn't emailed to me. But it seems like these codes are not unique & exclusive to individual buyers. If there's more codes out there, share the wealth & post them on here for those that would like to make multiple purchases!

MBoyd

Fine by me. If it is one time use I wasn't planning to use it anyway! Bought enough with Amazon and Barnes And Noble Criterions lately.

Sweet! I was hoping another code would show up. On a small order, these effectively bring costs in line with the previous sales.

Now I just have to decide between the Columbia Film Noir set or The Prisoner.
65% off of the Prisoner is very tempting, but I've got about 75 other TV sets backlogged. The films in the Noir set might be easier to get thru sooner which would be a better value in my mind.

hmmm...

HOTSTUFF v.s. FLNHEICBBA


$5 of $25 or take the chance on the gift?

Chris-K

Have just used FLNHEICBBA. Thanks to the OP. Keep 'em coming, please.

JamesDFarrow

When I add some things to my wish list I sometimes get:

Inventory: Ships directly from the manufacturer.

What does that mean (aside from the obvious)?

Cameron McGaughy

anyone else noticing some prices that haven't been adjusted for today's releases (or in general)? Want to pick up the Lionsgate horror "Train" released today...should be $16.17 (40% off $26.95), but is $22.87. What gives?

...EDIT: I e-mailed them, and they changed it. Whoo hoo!

Tim Tucker

Not sure. One of the items I ordered was listed that way. According to DD, it's being shipped with the rest of my DVDs.

blokhed

Man, the day after each I placed each of my two orders from this sale, Amazon matched the prices. First Ghost in the Shell 2.0 BD, PMed to $14.99, then Fawlty Towers, PMed to $24.49.

Amazon has spies everywhere.

rw2516

I've seen this several times. Usually VCI and Timeless Media titles. Items always ship from DDD with the other stuff. My best guess is that DDD don't actually stock these titles. If someone orders one, they turn around and order one, and then pass it along.

Brent L

Wow, I got my first order from DVDPlanet today!

RobCA

Thanks to everyone who's been posting the '$5 off $25' coupon codes!

So far, I've ordered Dogma & An American in Paris for $20.27,
and The Devil Wears Prada & Sex and Death 101/Heathers for $21.22

BTW, the Sex and Death 101/Heathers double-feature is available for pre-order for only $14.68 at DeepDiscount, $4 less than at Amazon.

JamesDFarrow

Thanks! Was the Prisoner (Blu) which is an A&E title and Waking The Dead, Season 3, which is a BBC Warner title.
