DVD Talk Special Edition
Ordered all four at same time from Amazon and just got email confirmation that they have shipped only "Quai des ofrevres," leaving the other three in "waiting to be shipped" status. Each of these three titles shows as only 2-4 copies available on the main site. Hmmmmm. Probably should have chosen a paid shipment method because it looks like those few copies might get snagged from under my pending order. Ah well...

Heads up for those who recently purchased these on amazon, the price on all but "Le Corbeau" just dropped to $21.99 (from $26.99) so you will want to request a post-purchase price adjustment. It's not clear whether these are all still in stock so YMMV. "Quai..." and "Port of Shadows" show as 1-3 week delivery, which in this case probably means "never gonna happen" as they likely won't be getting any more from Criterion.
May lessen the sting of having paid $27 for a single disc release....

However, it's interesting that "Variety Lights" is now listed as In Stock again, and the price currently shows $26.99.

Looks like all of these except Variety Lights are back in stock at DVD Planet, which pains me deeply, considering how much I paid for them. Stock up while you can.

According to a 3/1/09 review at CriterionForum.org, "Quai des Orfevres" is coming (came) back into print 3/10/09.

Hurray! Despite the news, it's still not showing up at DeepDiscount.com.
