Well i've never seen em.. Best used price on amazon is in the $30's.. So if I do not like them I should be able to unload them for at least my money back!
So hope it's a great blind buy! Thanks guys..
So I grabbed this set. The Punisher(dolph) and broken flowers for 24 shipped! Awesome!

Got mine today. How can I tell if I have the corrected version or not? Is there somewhere online I can see what the correct AR should be on each disc?

"The corrected MGM boxset can be identified by its UPC code and Catalog number: UPC# 0 27616 91137 7 and Catalog# 1006999. Both numbers are found on a white sticker situated over the spot where the old UPC is printed, at the bottom of the box (old UPC# 0 27616 90225 2 — old Catalog# 1005996). For those who wish to purchase the titles individually, the new UPC for Hour of the Wolf is 0 27616 91135 3 (previously 0 27616 86787 2), and in the case of Shame it is 0 27616 91136 0 (previously 0 27616 90224 5). The UPCs of the other individual titles are the same as before. MGM should be commended for their diligence in addressing and rectifying the original error."

Got mine in today, it was the correct version.
Curiously my UPC matches neither the corrected version nor the incorrect version as posted (my UPC # is "8 83904 19256 5") but the individual title UPCs match the corrected items.

I really enjoyed Seventh Seal, but these movies sound much more bleak and depressing without the dark humor of SS. Do you think I would enjoy? A steal at this price.

If you liked The Seventh Seal, you should go for it. It's not much of a gamble when you can make your money back if you decided to sell it.

Now that I notice that this is sold out on the Oldies.com site, this morning I received an email from Amazon promoting this very same set for only $56.99.
Good thing I ordered when I first read this post. The set I received has a UPC code that does not match either earlier number, but the individual DVDs have the corrected UPC codes.
Thanks OP!

I emailed "customer support" and asked why they cancelled my order when I know people who ordered after me and received the item. They basically said it was sold out now. I emailed them back and said that wasn't my question and asked that they address my issue and they didn't respond.

1. They should have listed it as sold out if it was.
2. If they don't have enough stock, it should go to those who ordered first.
It appears they have failed on both counts.

I would have expected them to wait list orders if the item was out of stock, not cancel. I am luck mine went through.

The customer service person I spoke to ran to the warehouse to see if there were anymore copies, but they are completely sold out. I told him that people were getting the set days after I placed my order. he said he was sorry but there was nothing he can do. Frustrating.
