I definitely plan to buy Early Edition, season 2 next week with the DD supersale.
Still seems to be a good deal, especially with the discount. I saw it at Costco on Tuesday for $229.99.Originally Posted by Grant H
The BD set dropped at some point?
It's up $6 to $225.89 now.
Ordered mine at street date for the 219.89 price plus discount code of course.
Although I'm not into BR yet, I know what you mean. I don't mean to trash DD but I only order from them during their semi-annual sale. A few years ago, they were beating Amazon's prices consistantly but for most new releases and pre-orders, it's seemed to me that over the past 2 years, Amazon's pricing has been lower on average. There's some catalog releases that are lower at DD...that's where I can save with titles that have been available for a few years, but I buy mostly from Amazon. The other reason I go with Amazon is (imo) their return-for-exchange setup is better...automatic free shipping with their online printout label, and for me, it's always been a no-questions-asked return regardless of any 30-day time window.Originally Posted by Aaron Silverman
Sigh. . .I think every title I looked into (all Blu) is still cheaper to get via Amazon's regular price than via the DDD/ DVDPlanet sale.
Never thought I'd see the day. . .
Not the case with me. I picked up Star Trek Original Series Season One BD for about $50 at DD, $66 at Amazon. Changeling BD was $18 at DD, $20 at Amazon. BD of The Good, the Bad & the Ugly was $16.99 at DD, $18.49 at Amazon. Plus I have to pay sales tax on Amazon purchases.Originally Posted by Aaron Silverman

I suspect that one's actually a match against J&R -- they seem to be doing that from time to time, particularly when J&R runs some kind of promo sale:Originally Posted by Richard Gallagher
It looks to me as if Amazon may have slashed some BD prices to counter DD's sale, resulting in some bizarre pricing. Amazon is selling the BD of Werner Herzog's Encounters at the End of the World for $11.99, but the standard DVD is priced at $17.99.
The DDD price match program rules are spelled out on the website:Originally Posted by Tony J Case
So does anyone know if they pricematch and do the coupon on the same order. I know that DDD does that bullshit "we'll pricematch, but you'll have to call us for it" nonsense, but I want to do the coupon on top of it. Amazon has the new season of Torchwood for about 10 bucks cheaper, and if they dont do the coupon, I'll probably do amazon since I come out ahead even after Amazon's tax and shipping costs.
Maybe your browser is blocking it for some reason? I just got on the site. Try this link:Originally Posted by Mark Zimmer
I've not been able to get onto the DVD Planet website at all during this sale; just tried again and Cannot Find Server. I guess I'll try again in the middle of the night and see if it helps. DDD works fine for me, though.
