the target 3d pack does include an extras disk that is not in the 3d packs from other stores

I think the big "problem" with the Target sale was not selling the 2D only version for $18.99. I bet a lot more people without 3D TVs would have picked up the 2D only copy to save the dollar but for the same price, why get 2D only?
For me, it was the digital copy. The 2D version did not come with it, even if they did bring the 2D version down to $18.99 or even $16.99 (the price of the DVD) then I would still go with the 3D version at $19.99, I was planning on getting it at the $24.99 price just to be able to have copies in Blu-Ray, DVD and Digital.Chuck Anstey said:I think the big "problem" with the Target sale was not selling the 2D only version for $18.99.

Its not on Target's web site and $37.99 on amazon.Nelson Au said:I think it's too late to get Avengers on 3D for the $19.99 deal at Target. It's off to Amazon then.
No, the Target exclusive disc was included in the 2-disc copies. There was something else incorrectly advertised about the 3D set, but I forget what it was.pitchman said:They surely could have done that, but wasn't the underlying issue that prompted the price change the fact that Target was advertising the inclusion of an "Exclusive Blu-ray Bonus Disc" in their 2D Combo pack when it didn't exist? Since only the 3D sets contained the disc, they began selling it at the advertised 2D price. Aside from the additional 3D disc, I believe the contents are identical. Since most other retailers went ahead and matched Target's advertising SNAFU price, despite this thing selling like hotcakes, I doubt it will generate the profits it normally would have from a boffo first-week of sales.
Amazon's prices are usually price matches of brick & mortar retailers. The stores like Best Buy and Target raise their prices after the opening week, and then Amazon no longer has to match such a low price.Nelson Au said:Wow, the Bond 50 blu ray set jumped up to $170 at Amazon. The Avengers blu ray 3D also jumped up to $37.99! I guess those prices last week were only good opening week. I never knew Amazon did that before.
