My order for The Hobbit 3D is backordered. We'll see what happens I guess.

darkdaze73

I did. It says in my order history that they expect new stock in on 4/30.

Got an e-mail from CH today, 26 days after I placed the order. Doesn't look good. I guess that's one way to prevent customers from getting a sweet deal on a 3D Blu-ray.

We're sorry to inform you that your recent order or automatic Director's Selection shipment for HOBBIT:AN 3D BD is temporarily out-of-stock. We expect to receive additional stock within 30 days.

I wonder if they're going to run another murderous promotion for Memorial Day. For those that don't know, they ran a buy 1 get 70% off plus TBPs last year. Needless to say, people, including myself racked up HUNDREDS on BPs.

kenbenobi

Yeah, I took part in that one! I had 296 BP at one point, which I doubt I'll ever top. I really should open a new account in preparation for any super deals that come along, so I can fulfill a new account...

It's already started! I got an urgent email with a preview Memorial Day sale. They have a massive deal with 10.99 DVDs. That's one of the best deals this year.
They really have stopped any good deals since they screwed up last year. I haven't ordered from them for a long time.

kenbenobi

LAME! That sucks. Yeah, I haven't ordered from them in ages either. I missed the last big deal snafu, where the $10 coupon had no minimum. I know people placed tons of orders then...

CalebAndCo

As above, plus $2.99 flat rate shipping (DVDs & Blu-rays only):

What a non-sale, at least for anybody interested in bluray. Sigh.

BKenn01

Its a non deal even for most people who like DVD.

kyle

Why are people still buying DVDs?! I wish that format would die already so that the deals will be on Blu-rays instead, and that TV shows that aired in HD will actually get HD releases.

kenbenobi

I don't expect DVD to completely die and whither away, but I can't believe that CH still treats Blu-ray like the red-headed stepchild. Its presence should at least be equal to that of DVD, if not greater. I wish I had opened more than 2 accounts when they briefly allowed BD's as enrollments last year...

My DVD enrollments pretty much are always TV titles. Doctor Who mainly, but sometimes other TV seasons. I won't buy a DVD movie anymore, except for dirt cheap ones like $3 at Big Lots occasionally.

BKenn01

It is likely not CH fault. They probably cannot get the promotions/deals on Blu-ray like they do on dvd.

DVD-Obsession

CH $7.95 DVDs. Does any one have a FS code to sweeten the deal?

IJMSPORT

$7.95 IS the deal. Happy shopping for DVDs. You're in the minority, at least on this forum thread.

Bobaray

And even worse, you have to buy one at full price first.

20130628SCDVDT04 - 70% off DVD's only.

Sweet Baby James

You have to first buy one at regular price before the 70% off kicks in for any additional title.

movieguru

You also can't buy another 19 titles at 70% off. After 12 or 13, the next one becomes full price and then back to 70% off again. That makes the deal even worse.

BKenn01

Not much of a sale this year. There is a 20% off order code. Says for both DVD and Blu-ray

^ also says it includes box sets.

bigjim25

Just a heads up...
