Huff for me, I might be back for Odyssey 5 and the Tick.

Damn. The temptation was too much to resist - picked up Icons of Sci-Fi: Toho Collection and The Sam Fuller Collection. And probably will pick up the the BD Harryhausen set, although I was hoping Amazon would match the price since I have a $40 GC to burn.

Grabbed the Michael Powell double feature (A Matter Of Life & Death and Age Of Consent) for $10.98, by far the cheapest I've seen it.

Hmm... The Kino sale killed my wallet, but I'm still strongly tempted to get the four Icons sets that I don't have. And maybe the Harryhausen Blu-ray set.

Question: Has "All in the Family" ever been sold as a complete series spindle-pack (ala "Sanford and Son"?)

no, esp. since they have not yet released all the seasons.

I think Odyssey 5 is the best deal so I got one.

Thanks OP-Finally pulled the trigger on Bewitched season sets. They were $22.95 at Amazon and I have been waiting for a price drop but it never happened. Glad to pay $16.00 and change per season now.:)

Added All in the Family 1rst six seasons for that price with the hope that the final 3 seasons will be released soon!

Just Checked Amazon and they raised the prices on Bewitched to $32.95!!!

Great deal on Odyssey 5, Quark, and Square Pegs, too bad I already have them all.

I got my order placed on April 5th in the mail today (My Boys S1) and a lot quicker than expected.

I also ordered V.I.P: The Complete First Season just now. It is backordered though. Does anyone know how long (on average) it takes DD to restock?

Re: DD - Up to 64% off Sony Box Sets
 
I got The Shield the entire series in today and almost every disc is scratched to shit right out of the packaging. I'm hoping to contact the Fox department directly to get replacement discs rather than dealing with ddd again and just receivng the same problem all over again. Has anyone else gone this route to replace damaged discs due to shitty packaging?

I ordered a couple of sets on Tuesday that were on backorder but then I received an e-mail on Friday stating that they were shipping. I had one backorder in the past take two weeks to ship. I guess it varies.

I read the bad packaging reviews on this set at Amazon.com and that's what stopped from getting it. Too bad since it's a great price.

I saw that Sony has a set replacement program so I will be calling them on Monday. It seems that they will either replace all of the discs with good ones (which will go into a dvd case) or they will straight out replace the set with something in place to protect the dvds (which I prefer). I'll post what happens after I call them.

The problem is I've been screwed out of transactions by both Ebat*es and Bing. The only ones that haven't done that to me are cashbaq and fatwallet.

Yep. Even though it's just 1% at DD, I use cashbaq.

I was wondering why recent orders I did through bing with deepdiscount didn't work. That might explain it.

I heard "The Giant Claw" in the Sam Katzman set is cropped in a fake widescreen. I'm guessing the other movies aren't. I was debating about getting some of these Icons sets.
