This isn't a bad deal since none of the above titles are available in the US.

I've just noticed that some Fox Blu-rays in my wishlist at Amazon.com are cheaper now, but I don't see any special sale for this.

$19.99

Me, Myself and Irene
Wall Street
Man on Fire

I'm sure there must be more.

I knew that they were coming out seperately, but that's two months away and not on sale yet.

And, I like to pretend that Oceans 12 never existed.

There are lots more. I would search "fox blu-ray" under dvd and there are about 6 pages. More notable ones are: Fantastic Four 1 and 2, Sunshine, The Fly, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, X-Men: The Last Stand at $19.99.

You can add From Hell on the Amazon list for $17.95. They also lowered all Starz(Anchor Bay) titles to $16.49.

Fox has lowered the MSRP of their older catalog releases to $29. Figures since I just paid $30 for Mr & Mrs Smith last week .

If you can't get a price adjustment, then buy it at the lower price and return it with your higher price receipt(since it has been less than 30 days).

Unfortunately, in this case, I use DVDEmpire as my main online provider since they always ship out on Fridays, even if they're a bit more expensive. I don't think they pricematch and they're still listing at the old MSRP anyway.

Naked Beneath the Water [Blu-ray]

Only $8.95 for Pre-order - the DVD is $17.99 - I am guessing a misprice.
