New pricing policy at Half.com is a joke.

As if this place wasn't bad enough, now the prices no longer have to be at least half off. You have to wade through a ton of overpriced DVDs to try and find a good deal. Its just not worth the hassle. Most of the idiots on the site are charging more for their used DVDs than online sites charge for them new. Half.com could not suck more if it tried.

Over the past few days i have seen Hard Boiled listed at both $70.00 and $95.00
and i think sunday i saw This Is Spinal Tap for $175.00 but doing a quick search it seems that people have purchased them.
maybe i'll put my Salo and 400 Blows up for $1000 each and see what happens
Another crap thing on Half is on sat-sun
someone was listing a huge ammount of VCDS of new releases and selling some at
full dvd price. i wonder how many newbies to dvd fell victim to this scam.
Half used to be a great place to pick up
dvds on the cheap that maybe you missed out on with pre-order prices. last week i picked up a sealed Peeping Tom for 16.95
(SMILE5) coupon but now the same seller is listing all of his dvds at "more then half". other great deals were SOL:CC, Storm Riders, A Man Called Hero,Vertigo,
and Marnie for all under $17.00.
