I've gotten more Timeless here and there lately as my connection there is good but it is not the primo Timeless stuff most look for....no cool vintage Westerns, but lots of their single movies and the Red Skelton single discs that are also in box sets (not that there's anything wrong with Red Skelton!). |
Re: Hamilton Books
I can't believe how enthusiastic people are getting about the DeepDiscount sale this year. Any label that gets brought up (Olive, Kino, Shout Factory etc) I can think of at least a few catalog titles cheaper at HB.

Sales have a very powerful psychological effect
Btw, Scorpion posted on FB: Scorpion Releasing has signed with Kino/Lorber to distribute all upcoming titles, as well as select past catalog titles, through retail outlets as well as in their catalog and on their web sites, including limited editon BluRays. |

So do Price Cuts. ;)
Btw, Scorpion posted on FB: So maybe you'll get to carry them after all. Kino seems to be becoming an umbrella label. They already distribute Redemption, Tartan/Palisades & Raro. Very glad to see that Kino got Scorpion--that's my optimal solution to new accounts...they get in with someone I already deal with, and save me all the trouble! :) As soon as they start listing with Kino, I will start ordering it. |
Re: Hamilton Books
The good (well, best available!) DVD version of the original Star Wars we discussed is up guys. I settled on $19.95, I think that is an ok price.

We do pretty bad with Asian stuff in general...it kind of has to have a Synapse type title (that is, trashy or sexual on it's face, "Nympho Diver", etc) to get attention. Wish we had more foreign fans. I keep stuff like the Shaw Brothers movies around solely because I enjoy the genre. |
Re: Hamilton Books
I was just looking over the newly arrived stuff and found another Charlie Chan bargain.
The recently released "Charlie Chan - International Investigator" set which has 18 discs and *most* of the films in the earlier, more bulky, Anthology sets. From what I read at Amazon it's missing several of the films from the 5th Anthology set but is *still* a bargain for obtaining the films in the first 4 of those sets. Hamilton also has it for $10 less than a Amazon MP vendor even after adding shipping! It almost makes me wish I didn't already own those! That's because it's in one of those cardboard page affairs of which I'm not too fond. BUT the tradeoff is a much smaller footprint on your shelf. They still have the TCM Charlie Chan Spotlight collection for ~$10 - a great price! *AND* the 5 film Charlie Chan "Limited Series" release for ~$10. That one is some of the later Monogram films and less than purchasing them individually (although it *is* missing the OOP "Meeting at Midnight"). Both those sets are less than Amazon even after adding shipping. And another for classic adventure fans: The Tyrone Power Collection is ~$11 under Amazon's price and a buck less than I paid for a "Like New" used copy a couple of months back! It has 5 very good action/adventure films from Power. |
Re: Hamilton Books
Received all of these today from the May 2014 catalog - prices are still the same at $3.95 per title and $11 less than buying the boxed set:
THE KRZYSZTOF KIESLOWSKI COLLECTION A short film about Killing: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/a-short-film-about-killing A short film about love: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/a-short-...tof-kieslowski Camera Buff: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/camera-buff The Scar: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/the-scar_3 No End: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/no-end Blind Chance: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/blind-chance The boxed set which is about $11 more compared to buying each: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/the-krzy...ski-collection Also this one is only $3.95 too: Island of Love: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/goto-island-of-love Every title is like MUCH MUCH more on Amazon. |

We also have the exclusive (for now) Countess Dracula DVD. Even I'd say it's overpriced, which is one reason why I won't be bothering to get exclusives any more! It just doesn't fit our model. (Oh and for you thread readers--I'm probably going to have to blow Hands of the Ripper out in a few months...on the off chance you want it don't buy it now at $9.95. Wait a few months and it will be $5.95.) My gigantic soft spot for Hammer Horror does NOT=sales sadly. BTW...only 74 copies left of the good Star Wars left. At least 3/4 of the 500+ sold went to people buying more than one copy! Snag one on the website if you want it because I bet most of these are getting flipped on Amazon or something for more than 20$. |

I think the value of these may have just shot up. I recently price checked some of these on Amazon and some were priced in the triple digits by 3rd party sellers. And they're not currently being sold in the Code Red webstore.

Sorry Living! I hate cutting prices not only because it means less $$$ for the company but because it affects those who bought at the higher price, just like this.
Will you be pricecutting Frankenhooker down to $5.95 too? |

Sweet! My Cthulhu 2015 wall calendar just arrived. Not a bad deal, especially considering it was printed in the U.K.
