I have pre-ordered box sets at 40% off during previous sales. So far as Columbia House is concerned, it is still a "Special Price" even during a 40% off sale.

Grrrr... the only box set I want at the moment that I didn't get elsewhere would've been the Rocky Anthology, but it ain't 40% off.

"40% off box sets" will likely return in a few months, if you are willing to be patient. It is also likely to coincide with another "free shipping for three" promotion if you are willing to wait for that.

On my accounts everything seems to be only 30% off and not 40%. The good thing is that pre-orders are also 30% off.

Got the Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection for a grand total of $63.56. I used fun cash and had to pay shipping, but that's still about $6 less than it was during the DDD sale.

I wondered about the wisdom of resurrecting a year old thread vs. starting a new one.

After checking prices they really seem to be leaning very heavily on the "up to" part of "up to 40% off." Most are 30%.

^ Yes, I noticed that also. But in the case of sets with list prices of $59.95, 30% off is a better deal than 40% off because the "special price" of $41.97 counts for two fulfillment credits and a 40% off price of $35.97 would only count for one.

For the first time ever I'll be glad when the box set sale is over. It lowered the price of Back to the Future too much to use as a fulfillment. Hopefully free shipping is still going when the box set sale ends.

Can't argue with that, as odd as it sounds. Dealing with CH can make a person do and say some crazy things.
