DDD 20% Off Sale? (1 Viewer)

[EmmaAU]

Maybe the markups depend on the popularity of the selection. Most of what I bought is not in high demand and I didn't notice any increase in price. For example, the "House of Eliott" series is currently $47.99 at amazon and with the discount is $31.20 at DDD. "Foyle's War" is $41.99 at amazon, $31.20 at DDD. Amazon has dropped the prices of these two since yesterday--I"m pretty sure HoE was $53 the last time I looked. If I don't like the price of a dvd, I just wait until it gets to the price I want .

Is anyone else having trouble accessing DDD's web-site - or is it just me? I tried late last night, early this morning, and again right now - "Cannot find server" each and every time. I've tried typing the web address in the address bar, tried accessing DDD from Yahoo & Google, and even tried DVDPriceSearch.com's links all with the same result - "Cannot find server".

DDD's servers must be bombarded with activity because of this sale. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Come on - let me at the deals!

 

[Mike.P]

Meh, was all excited to maybe get the new King Kong for cheap, guess that isn't going to happen...gonna have to flip through to see if theres anything I want .

 

[EmmaAU]

Jeff, I was able to access the site last night and just now.

[Joe:C]

I had it on my wishlist, but it seems to have disappeared. I guess it's out of stock now.

 

[JamesY]

Site is working right now, still building my order. Yeah, expect site slowdowns and hiccups, all the more reason I use DVDPriceSearch.

Really wished that the DIRECTORS LABEL SERIES BOX SET wasn't a preorder, anybody know why that is? Vol. 1 was release well over a YEAR ago, and Vol. 2 was released last September! Was waiting for this sale to pick these up, but oh well...:frowning:

 

[TravisR]

I was gonna pick up another copy of The Director's Label for a gift and found the same thing. Maybe there's a price drop on them and that's why the date is changed?

 

[Will_B]

I got

ALIAS-4TH SEASON $30.31
BRUCE CAMPBELL: MAKE LOVE (AUDIO CD) $18.70

That's Bruce Campbell's audiobook "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way". I hope the discount will stick, as it is a CD not a DVD.

Almost went for CLEOPATRA 2525, but, I'm not feeling confident about the economy at the moment.

Also almost went for WILD PALMS but it is pretty cheap everywhere.

Also almost went for some more seasons of XENA and HERCULES but there are occasional price cuts on those box sets anyway, so, no rush.

 

[seanOhara]

First order:

ALFRED HITCHCOCK-MASTERPIECE COLLE -$69.12
THE DIRTY DOZEN=$5.76
WONDERFALLS-COMPLETE SERIES-$20.77

I'll make another order next week after I get paid. Just have to decide whether I should finally get the Hitchcock Signature Collection and overdose on the Master of Suspense, or go with Rebel Samurai, Harakiri, and Ugetsu.

 

[RaymondSteiner]

I just see the prices of Amazon and they lowered their prices, for example smallville first season is at 29.97 (even lower than DDD)

 

[Craig S]

DDD seems to be processing things quicker this time - all the discs I ordered early yesterday shipped this morning.

 

[Daniel_Hall]

I knew they would do it. I put Gilmore Girls S3 in my wish list and it was less then $30, but now it's $43.19. Glitch? I don't think so. They probably couldn't sell it less than the $30, so they raised the price for the sale. The S4 set is still the same price as it was (still making it a good deal), but now I have to debate on buying S4 without buying S3.

 

[David Ruiz]

Daniel, that's what I was talking about. They are raising prices like crazy and nobody seems to even care. It's like they actually want to pay more than what their DVDs are actually worth.

Even after the 20% off of Gilmore Girls S3, it only comes down to being $34.56, still more expensive than what it was, BEFORE the sale. This is not a sale. This is a rip-off!

 

[BernieV]

Shawn Cornwell wrote You had to pay CA sales tax? I've never been charged that for any DDD order, not even for storage racks which ship from Southern California. Of course, we still have to pay our state use tax.

 

[Vader]

I checked all of the prices on my wishlist prior to the sale, and they didn't jack them up.... guess it was(is) mainly the TV box sets.... Here is my order:

SHIRLEY TEMPLE COLLECTION V.01 $ 17.56
JURASSIC PARK 2 LOST WORLD (DTS) $ 7.91
SIXTEEN CANDLES $ 11.19
SUMMER SCHOOL $ 4.79
RUSTLER'S RHAPSODY (WS) $ 7.48
NIGHT COURT-1ST SEASON $ 18.71

 

[seanOhara]

It's not a rip-off. Gilmore Girls was on sale for 50% off SRP. Now it's on sale for 20% off DDD's regular price. The same thing happened with the Ray Harryhausen box-sets and several other titles. It shouldn't be any great surprise that any sales DDD was having ended when the 20% off started.

 

[arsh]

I saw Toy Story 10th Anniversay Edition $14.99 after 20% discount and now it is $17.99 darn!

 

[Daniel_Hall]

I didn't know that the $30 for Gilmore Girls was a sale. I thought about buying it earlier, just in case they decided to do this. I knew it was too good to be true. I'm going to wait and see if they put it back to $30 after the sale, or I might just buy it from Columbia House. I can get it for $35.99 there. Maybe a dollar more than what I can get from DDD with the 20%, but it's one less set that I have to buy this time around (plus I get $4 fun cash towards another purchase on CH).

 

[Frank Ha]

I got SCTV vols. 1-3 for $28.71 a piece. Not bad considering how expensive they were when they first came out.
