Any special reason for that price, Joe? Prime membership or something?

Never mind. I see that's Amazon's regular sale price now.

Should I? Or, shouldn't I?

There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

Yes, Mike. You should.

I haven't been upgrading my DVDs to Blu-ray much, except for the Pixar sets. I really need Finding Nemo to come out, because the Widescreen format stopped working and we have to watch it in Fullscreen now.

If you purchased Snow White from Amazon, you qualify for an additional $10 off the price of the Up/Monsters Inc Combo. You may have to email Amazon Customer Service for them to apply the discount--apparently, the email announcing the discount did not go out to everyone.

Just email Amazon and ask for the "Snow White Thank You" discount.

I just placed my order for Up & Monsters, Inc. for $37.48 using the Best Value additional $10 off. Thanks for the heads-up on the combo Best Value pricing Sam.

Also, I purchased Snow White from Amazon in September so I just sent an email asking for the additional $10 discount. Thanks for the info Steve.

It will be interesting to see how Amazon handles these discounts and pricing along with with their Pre-order Price Guarantee as it gets closer to release date. I would not be surprised to see both titles hit the $20 price point within the next few days. I'm hoping that Amazon will still honor the Pre-order Price Guarantee in conjunction with the Best Value savings, and the Snow White Thank You discount. It would be hot to get both for $20 combined! ($20 Up + $20 Monsters - $10 Best Value - $10 Snow White). I'll still be very happy with both for $27.48 though.

We'll just have to wait and see what happens over the next week.

Again, thank you both for the information.

I just received the quickest response from Amazon that I have ever experienced - around 15 minutes from when I sent my email inquiry until receiving my response. Now that's customer service!

Anyway, Amazon credited my order for $10:

I'm sorry this promotion wasn't applied to your order.
To correct this error, I've reduced the cost of your order by $10.

I'm at the very happy price point with both for $27.48!

Still holding out hope for the Hot Price Point with both for $20.

Question about the Snow White promo: is this the case if you bought it from Amazon for $19.99? I remember the price went down towards release date from Amazon and I never got the $10 email, did I already get the discount at that lowered price? Or should I email CS and inquire?

EDIT - when I placed my original order I typed in the "snowhite" promo which got me $10 off of that order. Am I entitled to another $10 off a future purchase? Thanks in advance!

Someone on another forum posted that he believes that the "Snow White Thank You" discount is being given to anyone who ordered Snow White *before* the SNOWHITE coupon code was announced, even if they cancelled and re-ordered after discovering the SNOWHITE code.

YMMV. I suppose it couldn't hurt to send an email. . .

Weird response:

The $10 promotional offer on ‘The Snow White/Monsters’ is not being offered by Amazon.com.

They included a link to a deal where you get $8 off if you order Snow White on BD and the new Tinkerbell movie on either BD or DVD.

I placed my order for Snow White on 09/24/2009 for $24.99 and used the "SNOWHITE" promo to get $10.00 off for a net price of $14.99. On 10/07/2009 Amazon refunded $5.00 to me in accordance with their Pre-order Price Guarantee so my final net price was $9.99.

I never received an email notifying me of the $10 promotional discount towards the purchase of Up / Monsters, Inc. combo, but I sent them an email after purchasing Up / Monsters, Inc. to inquire about the discount and they deducted $10 from my purchase price.

I would send them an email and inquire about the $10 discount. The worst thing that can happen is that they say 'No'.

Do so, Aaron. Mention the "Snow White Thanks" offer for $10 off.

I just had the same experience Jeff did.

I sent an e-mail telling them about my current order...and that I ordered Snow White on blu last month (I gave them that order #, too). I asked if I was supposed to get another $10 off "Snow White Thanks" discount with my current order. Within minutes I got a reply saying they were sorry it was not applied and adjusted my account.

I'm still not certain why they're doing this. But I asked...and I guess I got my answer!

There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

I got denied by Virginia M. at customer service. Bummer. And they referenced some other way to get a $10 discount but the link only goes to BVHE's help page. Double bummer.

Quote:

Hello,

I apologize for the inconvenience caused.

According to the promotion, the actual cost of the "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo + BD Live w/ Blu-ray packaging) [Blu-ray] " is $19.99. However, if you purchase it from Amazon.com, you will get an instant discount of $10.00 on the total order.

As you can see it in your account, you were charged only $19.99 for the item, which includes the $10 as mentioned in the promotional details on the website.

Kindly note that you will not receive an additional discount code. The discount has already been applied to the order.

However, you can also be eligible for another $10.00 discount coupon that is being offered by Disney Studio. For more information on how to attain this code, please use the following link to contact them at:

http://www.disneystudioshelp.com/Contact_Us.html

I hope this information is helpful.

Thank you for shopping at Amazon.com

Posters at HardForum now reporting they can get the 2 four disk packs for under $35! My preorder still shows $27.48 with the Snow White discount, I'm hesitant to ask for the price to drop to $24.98, that would just be craaaazy.

Hey Guys...

If you are going to post Amazon deals on this forum why not just
post a direct link to Amazon so we can get the credit and
not give it to some other forum?

Gregg Loewen already suggested this above.

Thanks for announcing this deal. Just bought MONSTERS INC.
and UP from Amazon for $34.98

Doesn't Gregg's link in Post #6 do the same thing, Ron?

And, BTW everybody, amazon is now showing the pairing for $34.48.
