One & Only HD/BD Bargains Thread Part III: Back in Training
#251
Suspended
It was $4 to ship Tudors to me in California. It depends on the size and IIRC, Tudors is slightly thicker than a normal BD while Battlestar HD DVD is a big cardboard case (like Matrix Trilogy) since it uses individual cases and not the stupid cardboard circle like here in the states.

The Blu-ray page now reads:
"Blu-ray

Earlier this month:
"Blu-ray

Most of these have already been touched on, but "slightly cheaper buying through bestbuy.com and selecting 'Store Pickup'" deals, figured a list couldn't hurt:
Online:
$25.99 - Speed Racer (Blu) (Store Price: $27.99)
$25.99 - The Love Guru (Blu) (Store Price: $29.99)
$23.99 - Made of Honor (Blu) (Store Price: $29.99)
$23.99 - 88 Minutes (Blu) (Store Price: $29.99)
$21.99 - The Mist (Blu) (Store Price: $29.99)
Knocked up and 40 Year old Virgin are listed as $24.99 in their current ad despite not being available in stores until 9/30/2008. The online price is $18.99, not sure that will hold. 1408 is also $24.99, don't know how much it is in stores.

It's also pretty annoying that out of all those $14.99 and $19.99 titles, which have sale markers stuck all over the section, the BB here has only had a handful of the titles in stock since the start of the sale.

Band of Brothers $48.99
Individual James Bond titles (Dr. No, Thunderball, etc) $17.14
Indiana Jones 4 $19.59
Wall-E $17.63
The Band of Brothers, James Bond singles, and Wall-E don't have Blu-ray in the listing, but based on the MSRP it must be them. I've sent an email to Wherehouse to confirm.
I will be cancelling my Amazon pre-order for James Bond Collection 2 and get it from Wherehouse.
Using a similar code last Nov/Dec for several pre-orders, I had good luck receiving them on release day or the day after from Wherehouse.

Amazon is having another Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal, but this appears to be open to ALL Blu-rays, including pre-orders. I couldn't really find it advertised, but I was sent an email with the deal: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.htm...1000272741&-20
When I submitted my order, the discount was NOT applied to any of the orders, but I sent an email explaining the situation and got this reply:
So, as you can tell by my freebies, this is NOT like the past Buy 2 Get 1 Free offers. Not sure how long this deal will last, but I think I can get used to it.

Sucks that I placed an order on Tuesday for a few items that already shipped...but just put in another one for a few TV sets and hope this discount will get applied.

It appears Fox has lowered the retail price down to $34.99 on many more catalog titles, including Master and Commander, Patton, Die Hard movies, I, Robot and others. Amazon has reflected these and I was in Target yesterday and they also had made the change.

There are now 3 name brand BD players under $300.
Amazon.com has the Sony BDP-S350 for $295, Samsung BD-P1500 for $277, and the Panasonic DMP-BD30 for $276.
The Sony BDP-S300 is also $199. It's a decent unit, although it's profile 1.0. But I believe the latest firmware allows for TrueHD decoding.
