Blockbuster online is selling used HDs that average around $6.50 when using code "holidaysurprise" (30% off) plus 10% extra off for subscribers. Tax and shipping included in the final price. Not the best deal ever, but they have a few HDs that can't be found on those cheaper websites. This was a decent way for me to get the first Matrix movie w/out having to get a box set with two crappy movies included. Have no clue if these come with artwork or what the condition is.

I have Prime and I've noticed as well that you only have a window of like 10 minutes after ordering before in-stock items get changed to Shipping Soon and are uneditable.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Ordered something, thought about cancelling and couldn't because it was already shipping soon. In the past it'd sit there for days...

Here's a good Amazon Best Value deal.
Buy The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (Two Disc and BD Live) [Blu-ray] and get Wall-E (Two-Disc and BD Live) [Blu-ray] at an additional $10.00 off Amazon.com's everyday low price.
Total price: $33.98
Pretty good deal for folks that don't need the extra digital copy disc. If you want the digital copies, you can get the 3-disc sets for $39.98.

Why bother pre-ordering anything anymore?

I'm certainly not anymore. I still have my unopened and I paid $50ish for it. This is becoming a joke. Amazon no longer offers the 30 day price guarantee either.

Well I don't regret the $55 I spent but it does get irritating to see these drops.
Amazon never even responded to my 30-day guarantee request on BoB even though I had my order in before the 9/1 deadline. They can kiss my Prime re-up goodbye in March - I'm switching to Fry's for all purchases.
I did pick up a 37.40 copy for someone today at BB, so in my warped mind the two copies together cost me $46 per.

Amazon has the Samurai 7 Anime Blu-ray boxset for 54.95 which is 45% off the MSRP. Pretty good deal for a great anime.

It's funny how many of us hold off on deals like this when BoB was selling on dvd after release for 80-100 bucks. Now if we don't get the HD version for half of that it isn't a deal.

the BoB deal is really sweet - i thought i was getting a premium deal when this was ~$47 at amazon on release. i can remember shelling out over $100 when the SD tin was originally released.

I think I paid $70 so when I saw the Borders deal for $55 I jumped on it. I should have known if Borders was selling for $55 someone else would do better

My local BBV has a bunch of BDs marked down to $17.99 (old releases as well as current ones).
One of them was Hellboy II, so I picked that up.
YMMV so you might want to swing by and see if there is anything you're looking for.

Yeah, the Hellboy 2 deal was also posted in the DVD Bargains forum. I got a flyer from Blockbuster in the Sunday paper with the deal listed so I think it should be good most places. I was thinking about getting it as a blind buy myself.
