Some great titles at fantastic deals! Entire season of Pushing Dasies for $11! Wot?! Heck yeah!
Can anyone visit the site? My anti virus keeps blocking it.
Shipping is a little steep unless you spend $50 and get free shipping. $5 on an $8 blu ray seems like a bit much for ground shipping.
@erraticbullet: Yeah that's a joke! I want my game of thrones!
Free shipping if you get 3 blurays or more!!
@gideonfrost: I goofed, they are actually on sale. I thought the page the link here takes you to was all that was on sale.
Edit: here's a better link
Why is it that none of the sets pictured are actually listed? I searched for Game of Thrones, and it is on sale, just not as much as the other ones here...
For anyone else who's interested Amazon appears to have matched or already been at the same price for Game of Thrones Season 1
Here is the Game of Thrones link: http://www.wbshop.com/product/game+of+thrones+the+complete+first+season+1000204068.do?sortby=ourPicks&from=Search
It is also on sale but doesn't show up in the original link even though it is on the sponsored picture thingy.
@erraticbullet: geeze, my stupid webfilter at work is blocking this link as well...
Looks like I have to go back to the route (wbshop.com)!
@tsero4: I found the Bluray set on Amazon for the same price with free shipping (and Prime eligible): http://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-Complete-Season-Blu-ray/dp/B003Y5HWMW
Not seeing anything here I can't get cheaper in a local Wal-mart.
They also have the Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-ray on sale for $25.49.
The cheapest BD is $8???
This is a "sale?" Really???
@airmoz: Beware, last time I "purchased" the Matrix set it was mysteriously on backorder for the next 4 months. I ended up having to cancel my order in the end, because they just could not give me a date that it would ship. The funny thing is, it never once showed as "backordered" on their site, they were always listed as in stock.
@spyder69696969: Seriously. I saw Full Metal Jacket at Wal-Mart yesterday for $7.50. $15.99 on this sale.
Almost everything here with a few exceptions can be had elsewhere for much, much cheaper.
Someone please explain to me how Blu Ray isn't just a frivolous medium.
Ill wait patiently.
@airmoz: But do you really want to own any of sequels?
@teenracer6: frivolous medium to what?
@valtr0n: The stuff that are cheaper is really the TV shows. lots of great prices for blu ray TV shows.
@teenracer6: It's like watching TV in standard definition vs. high definition. Which one would you rather watch?
Watch a movie in DVD then follow it up with the blu-ray version. Judge for yourself.
@teenracer6: Well, to a certain extent, I agree. The picture quality is much better with blu-ray, but I really don't feel every movie really needs high definition (especially re-releases of 40 year old movies).
I typically only buy blu-ray over DVD if the blu-ray is on sale for about the same price (like the Pirates of the Caribbean movies ~$8 earlier this week), and a DVD copy has been included as well for just about every movie I've ever purchased on blu-ray so I'm not limited by not having a blu-ray player in every room in which I might want to watch the movie.
@airmoz: I dont get free Blu-rays with my Blu-ray player. I get free HD from my cable provider and I need an HDTV.
Blu-Ray is mor expensive for a quality upgrade that usually doesnt seem worth it, and sometimes forces you to be online to update its unskippable adverts and trailers.
Blur ray vs DVD, DVD wins every time, and VHS wins the times I get to choose it.
@teenracer6: I doubt you get "free" HD from your cable company. You need HD programming and a HD cable box, which are additional costs. Besides, most everyone agrees that cable is expensive all the way around.
Blu-rays aren't cheap...but neither were DVD's 10-15 years ago. If you want higher quality, you have to pay more...that's how it's always been. Blu-rays are coming down in price however, and there's always a great deal somewhere.
If you're happy with DVD, good for you. But for me personally, the DVD format is dead. I invested in a PS3, 56" HDTV and 5.1 surround sound system, so blu-ray is the only format that will bring the best out of my setup. You wouldn't buy a high-end gaming PC to play pac-man on it, right?
@teenracer6: Wow. Just...wow. I haven't watched a VHS in well over 15 years and the last DVD I watched was years ago, but that was only because it wasn't available on BD. So-called "HD movies" on cable aren't even close to BD.
I suppose it depends on what you put your movies on. If you own a 19", 4:3 TV built in 1982, then BD is overkill. On our 100 inch screen, the difference is so noticeable that a blind man could see it.
