Looks like Barnes & Noble have clearanced out these collections which both have normal list prices of $125 & $100. Now they are just $24.98 each (or $22.48 if you have a B&N card). It also appears these deals are available in the stores as well.

You get free shipping if your order is over $25. I have several comic book collections on DVD-rom and it is really cool having an entire library right there on a disc.

Fantastic deal - I'm in for Rolling Stone. Thanks for the post!

Also, check the Barnes & Noble Coupon thread in this forum for a 25% off coupon!

wow great deal, I wonder what my girlfriend who I live with would say if I got caught reading the playboys. lol.

Even with my member discount and using a 25% off coupon, I paid over $10 more for the Rolling Stone set three weeks ago.
Does Barnes & Noble do any sort of price-difference refunds in situations like this (like Amazon)?

Thanks for the heads-up - they've had these sets in the 50% off stack, and I've been waiting for them to drop. Also, the Rolling Stone set comes with a voucher for a free year subscription.

Anyone know if they are instore at this price as well?

Reminds me of a great truth I read on this forum.

Rolling Stone has/had a deal where they offered a lifetime subscription for $100. People were discussing the best way to take advantage, like by giving the sub to your youngest child to get the most years.

Someone responded; "Better yet, give the lifetime subscription to the child of your worst enemy, that way, they'll grow up to be a leftist with horrible taste in music."

Thanks to the OP. I snagged both

Thanks, OP. got both also.

I hope you guys didn't forget to use the 25% off coupons from the B&N thread...

Use a 25% coupon and add in a cheap $5 bargain book instead of paying $3.99 for shipping.

They are. I bought the Rolling Stone set yesterday instore at this price, and saw the Playboy set there as well.

Thanks to JohnBeas, I remembered to use the coupon. I get them in the mail but I rarely order from BN so I probably deleted it.

The Rolling Stone link doesn't work.

EDIT: DAMMIT! It's sold out. I really wanted this. Closest B&N is over an hour away...not making the drive.

Thank you, I picked up the Playboy at my local store.

If she's that uptight, that's a sign to get a new girlfriend.

Thank you for posting this great deal! I just picked up the Rolling Stone collection for $18.75 at my local store by using the 25% off coupon. My store didn't even have it on the shelves. Customer service had to go into the back room to get it.

Just remind her that the women your looking at are now around 70 years old........

I purchase the Rolling Stone archive, and when I got home opened it.

No DVD-ROMS anywhere. Anyone else get this when they opened their package?

I plan on taking it back, but I can't see them refunding the money.

Looking at the Playboy page, I see that what's actually on sale, despite the picture, is the BOOK that comes with the DVD-Roms, not the DVD-Rom/Book set which still sales for regular price. Buyer Beware etc

Which is odd, because you get the entire package (book, DVD holder, etc.) wrapped, but not the DVD's themselves.

I took it back and they refunded my money, thank goodness.

Ah...so in other words, this isn't a great price at all.

Well, the B&N links clearly state that this is the dvd-rom set for both of them. I think you just got a freak one.

Damn, you're right. Plus the Rolling Stone link doesn't work.

I'm curious what I'll get in the mail. Looks like I might be taking a trip to a local BN.

It wont let me cancel online and their customer service is closed until tomorrow. I want to cancel because if you return online orders in store you only get store credit as a refund.

What good is the package without the discs? I can't cancel at this point. No discs = refund. Publishing the book probably costs as much if not more than making the discs.
