The ones that had the MSRP reduced.... (from HighDefDigest)
In an extensive next-gen price cut, Fox has announced it is discounting nearly two dozen of its top Blu-ray catalog releases. Effective immediately, the studio will reduce the list price of 22 Blu-ray titles by $10, from $39.98 to $29.98. (All discs are currently available for order at Amazon.com for between $14.49 and $19.95 each -- see the links at the bottom of the page.) The complete list of newly-reduced Fox titles include: '28 Days Later,' 'Behind Enemy Lines,' 'Broken Arrow,' 'Cast Away,' 'Chain Reaction,' 'The Devil Wears Prada,' 'Edward Scissorhands,' 'Flight of the Phoenix (2004),' 'The Fly (1986),' 'From Hell,' 'Entrapment,' 'Fantastic Four,' 'Kiss of the Dragon,' 'The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,' 'Men of Honor,' 'The Omen (2006),' 'Planet of the Apes (2001),' 'Rising Sun,' 'The Sentinel (2006),' 'Speed,' 'The Transporter' and 'Transporter 2.' Although Fox's has issued no official comment on its pricing policies, a studio rep confirmed to us that the price reduction applies to these select titles only, and does not represent an across-the-board change in the studio's standard Blu-ray MSRP of $39.98. |
I did some playing with the "Recommended for you" pages on Amazon. Several of the new top picks showed up in my Gold Box this morning. YMMV, but it may help get a discount on something you want...

This is more of a general discount, but I'll mention it here anyway. I got a coupon via email for $20 off an $80 purchase at Buy.com using Google Checkout. Their BD prices vary; some are lower than Amazon, some are higher. If you buy 4, you'll get $5 off each, which isn't bad in today's world of no 10% Amazon discount or BOGO deals.
I don't know who gets the coupon. I remember buying a lot from them during The Great Google Checkout Deal of 2006, but not much since. |

I must have missed the first coupon, as they said it was extended. I wonder if I use it now I'll still get the $20 off $60 later...

I can't get google checkout to work properly. Every time I put more than one item in my cart (all coming from marketplace seller DD), the google checkout symbol turns grey. Will only become active with one item in my cart. :hscratch:

That's why it took so much hunting for me to fill an $80 order last time. |
From buy.com's website:
*Prices include shipping google checkout now works with Buy.com Marketplace It works fine until I put a second item in my cart. |

Still, if you read the Google Checkout Help: Important Restrictions regarding the use of Google Checkout are as follows: • Ineligible Items - Certain items are unavailable for purchase using Google Checkout. In addition to the items listed in Google’s Prohibited Products Policy, there are certain other items that are currently unavailable or that may become unavailable for use with Google Checkout (including, but not limited to, cell phones, digital downloads, magazines, extended warranties, pre-orders, on order items). When your shopping cart contains items that cannot be purchased using Google Checkout, the Google Checkout button will appear grey and you will be unable to checkout using the Google Checkout process. The following is an example of what the Google Checkout button will look like when you have ineligible products in your basket. |
Yeah, it's frustrating. I have a list of 5-6 wants that are available through the marketplace (all are DD in origin). Each one of them shows as available to ship. I've tried all 6 titles, and individually, google checkout shows as being available. As soon as more than one go into the cart, *bam*, greyed-out. grrrrrr.
I'd call their support line, but have a sneaking suspicion that "Frank" might not be able to help me. :lol: |

If you mean normal price for a BD on week of release, maybe it is, but probably not for Disney, as they usually go for a premium (from what I've seen). |
^first classical animated Disney BD, but almost all other Disney releases are usually $23.95 on amazon all the time - I don't expect these to be any different.
