Re: Warner launches "Red2Blu" trade-in program
I'm trying to decide if it's worth the 6 bucks to exchange 300 & Clockwork Orange.
When is the double-dip of 300 coming out? Is that confirmed and is there something special about it (new cut, extras, etc.)? And do you guys think it is worth it to have all the features on Clockwork on one disc or should it even matter?
I am just trying to finalize my list before any other changes are made to the program and these are the two I can't make up my mind on.

Re: Warner launches "Red2Blu" trade-in program
I save every part of DVD packaging, even the little stickers on the plastic wrap. I cut them out and put them inside the case. Papers like ^ I'll put inside the case as well. Basically, the only thing I ever throw away (recycle), is the clear plastic wrapping.
But then, I'm a freak.

I think even for the ones I wasn't planning on getting, I could go ahead and get them to use as somewhat decent trading or gifting material. Pretty decent offer IMO.

Re: Warner launches "Red2Blu" trade-in program
You guys may want to check the going rates on some of your HD DVDs before signing away their covers. For example, I see that "The Aviator" HD DVD is currently being sold for the low low price of $43 over at Amazon. And a quick search for the same over at eBay came up with no current listings. Then again, for something like the "Lethal Weapon" films, the HD DVDs are currently going for about $2-3 (plus shipping, of course).
At the same time, many of the Blu-ray versions of these WB titles can be had for super-low prices, too. Like "The Aviator"? Current low price at Amazon is, like, $6.50. And the BD version of "Blade Runner" can generally be found for around $15.
All that's to say, with some titles you might actually be a lot better off just selling them outright, then replacing with BD on your own . . .

Was I dreaming when I saw Planet Earth for $9.95? Now it's not there at all.
Also, I recall Blade Runner being $9.95, now it's $14.95. Am I dreaming this, or are there continuous adjustments being made?

Actually, I think Blade Runner was $14.95 from the beginning, but other titles have gone up (well, at least one: The Ultimate Matrix Collection).

Re: Warner launches "Red2Blu" trade-in program
So as far as sending in the covers I got a 9x12 in envelope (couldn't find an 8.5x11) and I just tape the shipping label on there. What do I do with the part that is labeled "ONLINE e-LABEL RECORD"? It also says MERCHANDISE RETURN MAILING ACKNOWLEDGMENT on it.

Keep it. That's if you want to take the package to the actual post office and get an official 'the post office sent this' record. Not exactly sure what good it would do though.

That's great, I didn't know that was a "rule" with the post office. Damnit! I guess I'll have to find an 8.5x11 in envelope then!

Re: Warner launches "Red2Blu" trade-in program
Is anyone using tracking or signature confirmation in the mailing of these? I'd sure hate to see it lost in the mail with all my covers and such.

I am holding off participating in this as I am waiting to see what those you sent got back.
If any of you are doing this for gifting/reselling purposes, don't be surprised if what you get back differs from the retail versions (e.g. lacking UPC and such).
