You're quite welcome. I've saved plenty of money over the years on deals others in this forum have alerted me about so I'm happy if I can return the favor and save someone else a few dollars. Hope you enjoy the movies.

Thanks for the heads-up. SAVE5 didn't work for me either, but I still took the opportunity to finally grab SHAZAM! (with the Jerry Ordway artwork cover).

Good deal for you.. because that version of Shazam! should be pressed discs vs the DVD-R of the later run..

Re: Warner Archive sales

Does Warner Archive use any DVD-Rs that don't have that purple surface?

I can't prove a negative ... but recently, at least, the ones I have received are purplish. Why do you care?

Congrats to those of you who received your priceless orders. As for me, I still haven't heard a word one way or another. For once, I actually caught a glitch in time and it turns out there's no record of my order number even though there's one listed in my e-mail. I'm still confused as to why the number at least doesn't show up in my order history.

I don't think I'll attempt to contact them and just hope that one day my order will just show up. Highly unlikely tho that is.

They've had a sale in effect almost every single day since Thanksgiving. Most of them cover all the single disc titles except the very newest releases.

I'm pretty much bought out on everything, and since the freebies I got last week, I don't have any titles just jumping out at me, so I'll pass. It definitely appears that they have decided that people won't buy these at the "list" prices of $15-20 a title, so there will pretty much be a de facto price point near $10 from now on.

You are a jerk. Actually, I was wondering about the color because I wanted to know for sure whether some of the multidisk sets I received from the archive were pressed DVDs. They do not have purple surface.

Re: Warner Archive sales

New Groundhog Day sale -25% off selected titles, plus the buy 1, get 2nd 50% off is still pricing on some titles as well.

Checking two $17.95 dvds with these offers comes to $20.19 with the free
shipping. Not too bad.

Re: Warner Archive sales

Update:

The buy 1-get 50% off the 2nd is not pricing anymore. It's just a straight 25% off selected titles.

The time to check their pricing is immediately after they start a new sale, because it appears they don't always erase the pricing structure for the old sale from their system right away. That's the glitch that allowed me to get those free DVDs over Christmas.

Since their sales now seem to be ending on Monday, check the site on Tuesday to see if you can stack a deal.

BTW, this sale also applies to the Archive multi-disc collections like the TV series and to Sony Choice single disc titles (at 25% off, they are $13.46 apiece). It doesn't apply to the Sony multidisc collections.

Re: Warner Archive sales

I noticed this too about the overlapping sales. That's why I usually leave a couple of titles in my cart and check on Tuesday to see if the prices have changed.

Fortunately, this time, I was smart enough to place an order on Tuesday instead of waiting till the next day, since the 50% off on the 2nd title no longer applied on Wednesday.

Re: Warner Archive sales

I took my first try at these titles by picking up the Perry Mason and Horror/Mystery sets during the 25% off sale. I'm really happy with the movies and the DVD-Rs play great. The single movie titles are more expensive, but I'm tempted by the B2G1 sale they have on right now. Is that sale worth it or should I be patient for better deals down the road?

They have been running sales every week since Thanksgiving and you will probably be able to get single discs for about $10 if you wait a while. The B2G1 works out to $10 a disc for the $15 discs but a good bit more than that for the other discs.

Good to know. I love the collections because the per movie price is so good, but I will try and be a bit more patient on the $18-$20 single disc releases. I received a $5 coupon for my birthday and ended up ordering the Philo Vance set. I know I will kick myself when its on a 25% or better sale later, but just couldn't hold out.

Re: Warner Archive sales

This week's sale is 30% off, but the good news is that it includes many (but not all) of the collections and TV series which are not usually included in the single disc sales.

If you're looking for a colelction or series, this will probably be one of the better prices you'll see for a while.

Thanks for the heads up. Picked up Torchy Blaine, Falcon Vol 1 and George Sanders Saint collection. That should tide me over for mystery movies for awhile.

4 for $44, plus free shipping on single disc titles.

If you do buy, be sure you get $18.95 and $19.95 titles, since those give you the most savings on sales like this. Some of the cheaper titles actually are less expensive in some of their other sales.

Re: Warner Archive sales

They have extended the 4 for $44 sale through 3/31 and added an additional $4 off on an order, so you can now get 4 for $40 (plus free shipping).

WBSHOP.com has a 25% Easter sale going on now until Midnight ET tonight on selected titles, so if you guys and gals are interested, head over there to see the discounts on those titles. Just got C. Brown and Snoopy Show for a good price and free standard shipping to boot.

Re: Warner Archive sales

I stopped by their booth at the end of WonderCon, and they gave me a free DVD. It was opened, probably demoed at their booth, but I'm fine with that. They gave me a choice from about 16 titles. Most were sealed, but I wanted Pick A Star since I'm a L&H fan.
