Warner Archive sales

Re: Warner Archive sales
Taken from the blu-ray.com DVD forum:
Use the code DEALS10 for $10 off $50. I'm not big on made on demand discs, but 5 for $40 is about as good a deal as I've seen on them.
NOTE: The 5 titles have to be priced $19.95 for the coupon to work.

Re: Warner Archive sales
I tried placing an order numerous times yesterday and again today and this is the message I get:
Unfortunately there was a problem processing your order. Please try again in a few seconds or call customer service at 1-866-373-4389 for help. Thank you for your patience.
Anyone else have this problem?

Darn spellchecker!
I only have the double-feature, and I'm no HD/bitrate/lossless fiend, but it looks pretty good to me considering the age of the films.
I don't know if this is the three minutes you're talking about, but they're still pretty good:

Cute gals and great costumes! I would have sworn I had the complete film on my hard drive, but all I could find was this sample!
Not on the double-feature, no.
How has the quality been so far?
Doesn't look like they have put out Hips, Hips, Hooray out yet? Hips, Hips Hooray has about the best 3 minutes in pre code history!

Re: Warner Archive sales
Went with the following for the 5/$50 deal, and may be so inclined to try the $5 off if it's still in play and works on the MGM stuff:
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark
Green Slime
Who is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? (I can never get that title right!)
From Hell it Came
Night School
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

From Hell it Came
Night School

Re: Warner Archive sales
Has Warner Archive ever had a sale on the Sony disks it carries? There's a few there that I really want, but I keep waiting for a 5 for 50 type sale like Warner runs on its own product.

Re: Warner Archive sales
WB Shop ran a 20% off Sony discs last year, but to my knowledge they have not yet offered a 5 for 50 deal. I would be so down for that if it ever happens.

Re: Warner Archive sales
I came here to post about the sale, but coyoteblue beat me to it.
I do have a bit of added content, though. The sale is supposed to be for single discs only, but it looks like there's a glitch in the system that's applying the sale to sets, too. I placed an order for The Split, Thirteen Women, the WB Horror Mystery Double Features set, and the Thundarr the Barbarian set and was charged $44 and tax. Got an email confirmation just now, so hopefully the order will actually go through.

Re: Warner Archive sales
just as an fyi, I picked up a WAC at a pawn shop today. just like the one i bought from Warner, this one also hides the blank disc manufacturer id code which is normally a bit embedded in the beginning of the disc.
My dvd identify program did flag it as a +. Ironically the one I ordered direct from Warner scanned very poorly, but this used one is scanning as a high quality burned disc.
I still would be a lot more comfortable if Warner wasn't hiding who manufactured the blank discs.

Re: Warner Archive sales
Isn't that a double feature? In the past I've found that WB counts single-disc double features as multi-discs for their sales. In any case, it sounds like the glitch is gone, sadly.

Re: Warner Archive sales
Does the Warner Archive ever release their sales figures ?, I wonder how many of these they actually sell, I bet the sales are starting to diminish.
First, they seem to be sending me a lot of emails with 25% off coupons and secondly these discs should be a hard sell at this point with the drop in price of blu rays.
Even this so called Fire Sale the prices are $11 ?????....a Fire Sale ?....how about $7 ?.....hell I can and have in the last few days bought Blu rays for under $7.

Re: Warner Archive sales
While you may have bought blu-rays for under $7, you can't buy these on blu-ray. Regular price dictates it's a fire sale, although we can wait and get them for $10 or less, that's why I laugh at it being a fire sale.

Re: Warner Archive sales
DD has added an additional, one-time only extra 5% off coupon, good through 6/30: EXTRA5
It stacks on top of the 25% off for a total of 30% off.
It's not all that good a deal on the single disk Archive titles, but if you're looking for a multi-disc set, like a TV season, it's the best deal they've ever had.
Examples:
Gordon Scott Tarzans, $60 on Archive (never discounted below that on the Archive) on DD $44.24 (under $8 per title).
FBI TV, best sale price $30 on Archive; on DD $27.58
George Sanders Saint Collection, best sale price $22.50 on Archive; on DD $20.50 (just over $4 per title).
2-Disc (4 hour) miniseries; best price $15.00 on Archive; on DD $13.86

I have reason to believe that DD has software monitoring the site & constantly changes prices in real time depending on sales (both up & down).

Re: Warner Archive sales
WB Archive has 4 for $44 on their single discs (except for the most recent) now through July 5. Free shipping included. I overspent on the DD sale, but if there are any coupon codes that work I might pick up a few more here.
