I'm sure they think it's just a mistake in the original pricing point (they probably think it's a repackaging of all the previous 7 seasons). I'm sure that'll go down in months.
Does Amazon.ca prices typically fluctuate? I'm new to the site, having given up on DVDSOON. Yesterday it wouldn't let you actually pre-order it at the 149.00, it stated it as unavailable as opposed to pre-order. Now that the price is up, it will let you order it.
Just to let you know that in region2 also a Angel Complete DVD collection will be released. Amazon.co.uk has it for pre-order (and so is Play) for also the 31th of October. Price is around the $200 for all five seasons.
Steve, I think you'll likely receive an email telling you that they had to cancel your order. I think they only let mistakes in pricing stand for a certain percentage. In your case, they only charged 30 dollars for something they should be charging 200+ dollars for. They cancelled one of my orders when they had made a mistake and charged less than a quarter of what they should have been. I wouldn't draw it to their attention or anything, but don't be surprised if it gets cancelled.
Jeff#, the 139.99 linked by Tony above IS from the US site.
Hmm. I'd only need to get $20/set for mine to break even. Of course, that's a LOT of discs to worry about not being defective or scratched in a set, and it's a royal pain to have to trade the whole set for another that could have similar problems when you buy online. (I still haven't checked all my Andromeda S3 discs I had to replace.)
If they came in thin boxes and took up less shelfspace that would be nice, but even then, 40 across is pretty big and can cause problems on the shelf when in one big box. Anxious to see packaging. Hopefully, we'll see it before the price goes up.
It's actually cheaper at Amazon.com which surprises me. I'm debating about whether or not to order it now or wait to see if the price drops anymore than it already is.
