Scarface sold out ALL across South Miami,FL
I've been to Best Buy, Target, and Walmart.. ALL sold out of Scarface, and all sold out within hours of store openings.. I ended up just buying it now on circuitcity.com for 17.11 shipped. Unreal I tell ya!
|
Damn.
I guess my chances of finding it in Hialeah/Miami Lakes are slim to none, eh? I was hoping to pick up the box set. |
The people at Best Buy today said it was OUTSELLING 2 Fast 2 Furious by a huge margin. There was a ton of pent up demand, and the bootlegs didn't keep people away!!
|
I never cared for the film, but I am going to buy it in case I ever get to be on Cribs.
|
If Scarface is outselling 2 Fast 2 Furious, then I guess Scarface must be one of those greater than great movies.
I mean, if it's outselling 2 Fast 2 Furious (the obviously stellar cast and musical score of 2F2F was just amazing--comparible to Rogers & Hammerstein's greatest musical achievements even), and was taken over by the simple cast of an 80's movie Scarface and Gorgio Moroder's score, then the people at Best Buy really do have a knowledge and 6th sense of acting talent, I can only hope to grasp when I watch movies. |
DVD Polizei ?
sarcasm?? ;)
|
I know there were a ton at the Walmart I was at, but it will be interesting to see how this sells. catalog titles that aren't Disney usually don't seem to sell very well. What's the power of cribs?
|
I think it's pretty evident how cribs has influenced this. :D The more I think about it.. I'm not that surprised.. I mean.. I do live in Miami, FL.. where Scarface takes place ;)
|
I'd say it's selling out everywhere. Luckily I preordered mine on the net so I made sure that I would get a copy this week. I know for a fact that our local Circuit City sold out today by 5 pm. And that is in little Johnson City, TN not Miami, FL. So I'd say it's like that all over.
|
It's sold out on circuitcity.com & my local Circuit City. The place was littered with copies of 2F2F, however.
|
A fleet of riced out Hondas bought all the 2F2F DVD in Full screen in Jersey

rice= aftermarket upgrades that make the car look alittle toooo flashy.
|
don't you mean "tricked" out..? :p
|
Rice = Mods that are more for show than performance. IE a metal spoilers, stickers all over the place, euro lenses, Type R badges on a non Type R vehicle....
My local BB had tons of Scarface for sale :) |
Was sold out this evening at my Best Buy. It was a sad, huge, empty display. I trotted over to Costco where they had about 8 copies. Upon further inspection they were fullscreen. I luckily found the lone widescreen copy left. Had to wait behind people with a billion items but it was worth it.
|
was gone all day, hope the old folks in Palm Bay florida didn't pick it up at the local best buy.. ;)
|
Good riddance.
Now maybe there'll be room on the shelves for a decent movie. ;) |
they had like around 50 copies at the downtown SF Best Buy at 4:00 and a mess at the Wherehouse on Geary St.

jeez lesterlong...
EVERYONE knows that
|
Great, now everyone can carry around a wad of food stamps in their "TM" money clip from the box set.
|
I gave it a rent tonight... never seen it. It was a good film but I dont think I will be buying it, no replay value for me.
|
I message could have been sent if only the widescreens were sold out and only the full screens were left in stock.
|
Anyone else hear that the #1 DVD to be bought along with Scarface was Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman Season 2?
|
Well, the box-set was sold out at my local Best Buy and Circuit City when I went last night so I had to settle for the single disc. Both places said they sold out of the box sets by noon. I was really surprised at the demand for this one. I knew it was popular but I didn't think it was THAT popular.

All this means to me is I will be able to find it on the cheap -everywhere- after just a short wait. People will be throwing copies of Scarface in for free on eBay when you bid on an order of soup!
|
If it's sold out in South miami, then go to North, East or West maybe it's still available there :)
|
there was this huge line at circuit city were it was 15.99..... they were almost sold out. the display at the front was totally empty, and there were about 10 in the new release section. I went with 3 friends and we each bought one.
|
I got to Best Buy when they opened and said that they were sold out of the Box set. I asked how, if I was one of the first through the door, like always I got the Homer Simpson response "I don't know". While I was there I overheard some of the employees there asking each other if they got there box set. So the employees at Best Buy kept the box sets for themselves which is totally messed up (pardon my French). So they had no more for the consumer.
|
The Best Buy add does say the Box Set is limited to 20 per store. So I guess 20 employees have the Box Set
|
I got it from netflix already. :)
|
If I'm correct the ad says "minimum 20 per per store" I think. Check the ad I don't have it in front of me right now.
|
i was walking past a customer and an employee at my local Target, who were both confused by the box set. as they read the back of the package, neither could really grasp why anyone would be interested in an old black-and-white movie that had the same title as the '83 Pacino masterpiece.
the customer also wanted to make sure he got the full screen version, and i had to explain that the "fullscreen" in the boxset was for the old B&W version. he put it back and picked up the single disc full screen--which Target, of course, had tons of... Fullscreen---when you care so little to watch the very least. |
Originally posted by lesterlong I see, when I read 'rice' I immediately thought this was an Asian stereotype slang. I've heard the term 'rice' brought up before when talking about Hondas. Its just an odd coincidence. |
Where are you looking in South Miami? I live in the heart of the city and there's plenty at the local Best Buy and Virgin Megastore. Also check out Spec's and, if that fails, the Disney Store.
|
Anyone have any stats on how this DVD sold? I am amazed (well, maybe not) at the huge demand for it.
