Still works fine for me.

Keep in mind, only some titles show up at sale price in the funcash cart, not all of them.
Everything that blaze1984 listed, and everything I ordered myself is still showing up at sale price.

It still works, but ONLY on the "DVDs $6-$15" category. The "DVDs Under $6" category does NOT work, as those DVDs revert back to the regular price when placed in your funcash cart.

good call... wish i had known this earlier, definately wouldn't have gotten the usual suspects as a fullfillment... couple other good ones that I just got are Ran (Akira Kurosawa film) and Hamlet Criterion... damnit, i really wish CH would get Seven Samurai... don't wanna pay $25 for it


also, some good prices on the sets under $20... beverly hills cop series for ~$11, Growing Pains Season 1 for ~$11, Maltese Falcon Special Edition for !~$13.50... if only $7 for shipping didn't kill these deals (though $10 for the Maltese Falcon Special Edition is a steal)

It appears that all boxsets under $50 (CH price) come up as approximately 60% off retail in the funcash cart. Even if you don't use any funcash you are getting a pretty good deal on many of these. Perhaps there are some exceptions but I didn't find any.

I tried adding about 14 box sets to use with funcash. The order total was about $150. When I went to check-out they added $87.96 in shipping and processing charges.

I thought there was a cap on shipping charges? $87 for 14 titles? That's outrageous!

Yeah, it used to be $15 max on shipping but CH nixed that earlier this year.

Anyway I had $44 in FC so I got these:

The Maltese Falcon Special Edition $13.48 $10.00 $3.48

Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition $44.98 $20.00 $24.98

Gary Cooper: The Signature Collection $22.48 $10.00 $12.48



Subtotal $40.94
Shipping & Processing $21.97
Tax $0.00



Total $62.91

To think I paid $61. for the Supe box alone earlier last month.

I must be missing something here, because you don't have a regularly priced movie on that list. Are you using a particular code/deal to not have a regularly priced DVD?

A few other good deals(sales tax is not included in the prices)-

Alfred Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection $33.98(with $20 of FC applied) + $7.99 shipping = $41.97. Please note that Costco should have this in a couple of weeks for around $50.

Looney Tunes Golden Collection 4 $26.22 shipped using $10 of FC.

Evil Dead 2: Book of the Dead $10.98 shipped using $10 of FC.

Perry Mason Season 1, Volume 1(Volume 2 is the same price) $20.47 shipped using $10 of FC.

Star Trek The Animated Series $25.33 shipped using $10 of FC.

Alfred Hitchcock Presents Season 2 $15.98 shipped using $10 of FC.

Joan of Arcadia Season 2 $26.33 shipped using $10 of FC.

Amazing Stories S1 for $19.47 shipped with $10 of funcash.

Debating on that myself as well as some other titles. Also debating on pulling the trigger on a $60 triple funcash order to get some more! I got the sickness, must try to resist.

It was $2.99 for shipping on the first one, and I think the next ones were around $2.49.They're only 2 disc sets the shipping isn't outrageous. I got 3 of the sets and the total was around $13. I've been waiting for these sets for a while and since Funcash is usually worthless I decided to go for it with the Legacy sets.

They're actually blind buys as I haven't seen any of these before. The one set I won't have is the Creature from the Black Lagoon. I vagely remmber seeing parts of this as a kid ( it was some kind of 3D version if I recall correctly). I didnt like it very much. Hope the others are better.
