Blue Ray discs for $9-15, HD DVD for $15-18

Check out DVD soon. They having some pretty wild sales on Blue ray titles. XXX and 5th element are $8 ! Others are $15.

of course, I know a lot of people have concerns about DVD soon - but I personally haven't had any probelms. But haven't dealt with them in a while....

look in left navigation bar to select just the blue-ray discs.

interestingly, they seem to be charging more for HD DVDs....

Seems fitting, given that HD DVD is a hell of a lot better than Blu-Ray at this stand point. Don't you pay more for quality?

I was just about to order Swordfish when I did a little research.

At this point I don't think it's worth the hassle for me.

You should have put "DVD Soon" in the title, which would have prevented a lot of unnecessary thread views.

I was burned by them once before, with their silly charge-before-ship policy. It took months to resolve and I had to get my credit card company involved. Never again.

wow! I have ALWAYS gotten my orders for the price I paid for them. I actually liked the fact that they charged before shipping because we are dealing with an exchange rate. So if the disc costs $8.31 on Monday, a month later when it ships the exchange rate could be $10.23. I personally never cared that it took a month or so to get my discs. I have enough in my ' to be watched pile' already..I have had to call their customer support lines twice and each time I got a real person (not a long VRU cue) who was friendly and resolved my problems.

but sorry so many people had problems with them.

They could be $5 each and I still wouldn't buy from those thieves.

I definately would not trust them, I remember about a year ago I cancelled an order because it had been over a month (the items were all listed as in-stock). They would only give me store credit and the credit could only account for 25% of the new order total. I got my credit card to do a charge back.
