Box sets up to 40% off again
I knew it was coming because when I was ordering The Dukes Of Hazzard: The Complete Second Season (3509908) last night the price kept changing in cart from $37.49 to $29.97, today is staying at 40% off. All the other box sets I checked are also 40% off.
Also, Collateral / Minority Report 2-Pack is now $18.36

Got Dick Van Dyke Season 3 41.97
Taxi Season 1 23.97
and Adv of Ford Fairlane as my third for 7.95.
Too bad I already had pre-ordered on another account Return of the king, Dukes season 2, & Gilligan season 2. I could have gotten them for a lot less. I sent an e-mail asking to credit my account for the difference. I should not be penalized for pre-ordering.

This is so odd, quite a few of the sets and other things I have clicked on have had the " Sorry, we're unable to display prices at this time. Please check back later. " message. Wonder what's going on.

Man, with this going on, I wish CH would've hurried up & added Voyager S4-? to their inventory by now??? I know there's usially a delay for Star Trek type titles, but this is getting old.
Guess I'll have to choose something else then for my 3 fulfillments??

The Collateral/Minority Report 2-pack is a great deal ($18.36) considering it's 19.99 to pre-order Collateral by itself.
I'm going for the Manchurian Candidate 2-pack myself.

I've got $33 in Fun Cash to use up quick-like; what to do, what to do? Ultimate Matrix Collection for $24.11 shipped after FC? Chaplin Collection 2? Something else a better deal?

Ok. I ordered Freaks and Geeks with $30 in funcash for a total of $21 w/ tax and shipping. A great deal, sure, but $8 shipping? Ouch! That's really ridiculous.
That was my first funcash order, as last year it seemed to charge you full retail for funcash items, but maybe I am remembering wrong.

If you're a member of the DV2 club, you don't pay for shipping on Funcash orders.
Funcash orders charge the regular price for non-box set items, and the 25% off [or 40% off when available] price for box sets.

Does anyone see an expiration date for the sale? The sale shows up on the front page but isn't showing yet in my offer details section. I also received a "Sets Sale" e-mail but didn't notice a date.
The last one went for a week, didn't it? They've had one-day 40% off sales in the past, but they're usually advertised as such, aren't they?

If the set you want isn't at 40% off, try putting it in the cart anyway. I have been waiting for this sale to happen so I could use accumulated funcash, but the set I had my eye on wasn't on sale. I put it in the cart and it came up at the 40% off sale price.
So... try putting a set in the cart even if it doesn't appear to be on sale... YMMV.
I already have them, but i noticed that all the Stargate SG-1 sets are 40% off: $41.97. That's worth two fulfillment credits, putting the relative cost in the ~$20 range, depending on the shipping options one chooses.
Some more obsure sets on sale are the excellent Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes TV series:
The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes Boxed Set Collection, $35.97
The Return Of Sherlock Holmes DVD Collection, $35.97
The Sherlock Holmes Feature Film Collection, $35.97 (but these movie length stories are not as good as the first two sets)

I'm kicking myself today!
Batman The Animated Series Vol. 2 was about $26 yesterday, and Superman The Animated Series was about $16. I was going to pre-order both of them today, but they've both gone up to about $31 and $21, respectively.

Btw, Hitchcock Signature makes a nice 3 commitment fulfillment at $59.97. Got that during the last sale.
