It's interesting that BestBuy.com states that the status for both versions is:
Store Pickup: Available at most stores
I just checked product availability on BestBuy.com for several (6 - 8) ZIP codes in Riverside, Orange, and Los Angeles Counties. Each search listed the nearest 6 Best Buy locations and all stated the same thing:
UNAVAILABLE It doesn't look like either version is presently available in Southern California at Best Buy B&M's.

Both Target and Best Buy had the standard DVD versions in-store (Target was $59.99, see my last post)

Did NOT see the B-R or HD versions at Best Buy though...were those the ones that possibly got pushed back?

Josh,

I had a similar experience with the SE of A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS. I pre-ordered it from B&N and got an e-mail on release day saying that the release had been delayed. It shipped later in the week, so I didn't have to wait too long. Hopefully, you'll experience the same thing.

Josh:
I checked on amazon's website. They are now back-ordered on PE in ALL THREE versions, with expected shipping dates ranging from 1-3 weeks! Can't wait to see where this ends up on the DVD sales charts!

This whole situation with the popularity of the Planet Earth release is one of the most fun things I've seen here in quite awhile!

Re: Weekly RoundUp 4-24-2007

James Cagney Signature Collection was $30.xx at my local Costco, a buck cheaper than the poster above saw at his store. I can understand a Walmart or other mainstream retailer having regional pricing, but it is a bit unusual to see a membership club doing this. Regardless, that's the best price I've seen for this fine collection.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 4-24-2007

We've seen regional pricing from Costco before.

In fact, lately I've seen a few things go UP in price at Costco -- the first two Looney Tunes sets went back up from $30 to $42, and the Wizard of Oz collector's set went from $32 to $33.

The West LA Best Buy Store has received the HD version of The Planet Earth but it's on sale for $99.95, not $79.95...Also, the standard version is selling for $79.95 not $59.95. Looks like Amazon is the way to go.

Planet Earth (standard DVD version) was $51.99 at my local Costco and I had to search for it -- they only had four left.
