I hate add more tv to my collection, but this is pretty tempting. Will BB price match all prices or is that only for new releases?
Thanks.

DVD Talk Godfather & 2020 TOTY Winner
There's a mistake with the Video Games. Ape Escape 3 is $27.88, like the PSP games, not $17.88 as written above. The OP misread the ad.

This is why I wouldn't buy them even if they were $5.

Anyone considering picking up these sets should take this into consideration.

Did other people find that CC was out of some of the 2 for $10 DVDs by early Monday morning? I called before going and asked about several titles I was considering (Bone Collector, Blue Crush, The Hurricane, and a few others) and they said those were all gone. I knew to call because my CC (and BBY) often only get a few of each DVD when a sale starts on Sunday and they are sold out for the rest of the week about 30 minutes after open on Sunday. (I have other things I like to do on Sunday morning than rushing out to stores.)
I went to BBY (for Doom 3 for $10) and looked for the same titles... couldn't find a single one of them except Bone Collector. My Walmart doesn't carry these either, so it's funny when I finally see a 2 for $10 sale that has a few titles I'm interested in, there is nowhere in my tiny city of about a half million people where I can find 2 of these titles, so the ads are worthless. I'm curious if this is the way it is at all CC and BBY stores on old, cheap DVDs or just near me?

The only suggestion I can make Manzana is to make a list of what you'd like held and call CC and have them held for you. I'm fortunate in that there are 3 CC stores near me but that scenario may not be the same for you.
I have also spoken to store managers at CC in regards to increasing initial shipments of sale items. It's not like these sale items are rare, oop Criterions. Please keep us posted.

Thanks for the prices. I went yesterday and picked up Northern Exposure Season 2. Would have like to pick up more, but the budget only allowed one purchase this week.
I noticed (as others have mentioned) that the back cover had the note about not the same music as the televised version. I checked but didn't see that on Season 1.
I mentioned it to my husband, and he thought was, what do we really care? He certainly didn't remember what music was played; he just wanted to see the show. It's kind of a simple view, but I guess I agree in a way. I'd rather have it exactly as it was on TV, but something is better than nothing.

Went to CC yesterday. That had to be the most disorganized dvd section I have ever seen. So I went to BB and got a price match with RZ.
