    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    This is always a concern. That is why I was happy to hear Shout! was going with more traditional cases in a standard outer box instead of some unusual specialized configuration like some complete sets. Also, a review stated that the disks were a bit tight in the hubs (good for shipment, not...

    It didn't really surprise me since BM and online stores are many times run as separate entities within a company. Many times with their own pricing and sales. I seem to recall BB being that way as well. It seems only in the last few years they started having online to in-store pickup. In a...

    My experience was definitely different, so Individual stores much interpret this policy differently. All it says online is to call the store for details. If anyone is in this boat I would call ahead first. What bothered me about my experience was that I called ahead to see if they had it in...

    I tried that once and they told me I had to pay the difference between the in-store price and the on-line price. The in-store price was almost twice as much as what I paid on-line at the time, so I had to send it back for a replacement from BN.com.

    Joe, James is correct. You need to start the search from the 10% off page. The search will bring back $113 regardless of how you start, it is only during the checkout process things will begin to show the decrease. Here is how I believe it is working: - Start from a normal page do search...

    Got mine in for $90.89. I don't think I've ever ordered->cancelled->ordered again->cancelled->order again so many times ever in my life.

    For a difference of $10 or less I would have kept my Amazon Pre-Order due to their stellar customer service and usually better packaging approach. However, a savings of $31 and the fact that this should be a very solid container and less likely to result in shipping issues has made me jump ship...

    You all are reading way to much into this. You are assuming that when Gary made that statement that he knew there were exactly 39 episodes per season. How do you know that for a fact? Maybe he just knew there were 234 episodes total and deduced that it would average to 39 episodes per season...

    Sorry, but I believe Gary's statement is correct from a mathematical sense. Saying that there are exactly 39 episodes per season is a more precise statement but both are equally correct in their usage.

    I have a few that actually have 6 discs (e.g., Mannix). I have no real issues with them and as you stated they really save space. I generally find that they use the clear plastic which tends to be more forgiving when trying to extract a disk. The biggest thing is the hinge mechanism and how...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    I think your right. I couldn't wait so I picked up season 1 at the $22 price, season 2 around $25, and now season 3 at $28. Amazon pricing is very fickle and bounces around a lot. I really wanted to make sure I had at least the first three seasons with the Addison's, which I think are the best...

    Works for me. Simple, fits on the shelf nicely, and doesn't appears like it should in anyway compromise the disks.

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    Interesting, I don't usually do the "out there aways" pre-orders, but I did in this case while planning out my years spending budget and what I wanted most (too many blind buys and knee jerk reactions to sales in the past). So I pre-ordered this as well as Mister Ed season 3 last week. Both...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    I'm in. I've actually been ordering a few pre-orders this year which is surprising for me. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the first two seasons of Mister Ed (even with the few syndicated episodes that I honestly wouldn't have known without looking them up). So, as Gary stated, even if not...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    The more I think about it, I see no perfect solution that Shout! could do. If they: 1. Just picked up where Universal left off and put out individual releases every few months then most would probably be happy since it is no longer stalled, but with some complaints that they won't buy untill...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    Is there a typical time frame for these types of announcements for when a follow up would give some idea of the pricing? Has Shout! released a complete series collection before? I'm curious as to any examples that might show how they might price the complete package vs. the individual seasons...

    What the hey, anything to help out the cause. In a way this is a team sport so we gotta stick together if we want to keep TV releases on DVD going. Besides compared to many here I'm a relative a newcomer to this, so I've been reaping the benefits of the past purchases of many of you anyway. It...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    Hmmmm...I think I just might have some how contributed to this good news. You see I just ordered the first two seasons a few days ago and they are scheduled to be delivered today. So it makes perfect sense for me to hear this news today of all todays. Oh well.
