Does 800.com raise prices of their discs on release day? I just got a 20 off 100 coupon for them (thanks Maliboo) and would like to use it with BFL on the baseball set coming out Tuesday and since BFL no longer works on pre-orders I'm wondering if 800 will have the same price on the set come Tues or Wed. Thanks.

I am not sure about 800.com...but most places raise their prices once a title has been released.....

DVDPLANET keeps their prices for preorders and in-stock merchandise at 30% off retail!!

I know with most Anchor Bay titles they still have the pre-order price for awhile (maybe like a couple of weeks) after they are in-stock. But then again, Jurassic Park went up in price the Saturday before the release date. Not sure really, I guess if want the pre-order price you better order before the release date.

djones, thanks for the info, but I was aware that most sites do that, which is why I wondered if 800 followed suit.

ernestrp, thanks, but I actually don't want the pre-order price because if I wait till after it's released, I can get an extra $20 off through BFL, which is not good on pre-orders anymore.
