Shout Factory to release Vincent Price collection! (1 Viewer)

Oh, maybe you can't from them. I hear people talking about price matches but I guess that's at Best Buy and Target, etc.

 

[Reed Grele]

You could always try customer service.

 

[Charles Smith]

I just cancelled. Heck with it. Don't know how prompt the Groupon shipment will be on a new release like this, but since you also have it coming, I figured what the heck.

 

[dpippel]

My set shipped today via UPS.

 

[Charles Smith]

So did mine!

 

[Reed Grele]

Me Three!

Ordered a copy from Groupon and only paid $32.95 shipped. I don't think it'll be possible to get it cheaper anywhere else.

 

[dpippel]

How did you get it for $32.95? The Groupon deal was $39.99 plus tax if applicable, which brought my order to $42.00 and some change.

 

[Charles Smith]

Yeah, "WTF?" (As those kids say.)

 

[JohnMor]

Just cancelled my Amazon order and purchased through Groupon. Mine came to $42.98 shipped. Thanks for the heads-up!

$10 first-purchase discount.

 

[Charles Smith]

Well, what the hell. This was my first purchase, and I sure didn't get that.

 

[JohnMor]

Me either! Grrrr.

 

[Mark Cappelletty]

Nor me! I heard, however, that it sometimes takes up to 4-5 days to get the $10 coupon after you register.

This is what happened to me. I signed up for an account after I heard about the low price for the VP set but didn't actually order anything for a few days. This morning I got an email telling me about the extra discount. Stoked about the super low price

For those that have this, how does House of Usher sound? The soundtrack on the old MGM DVD suffered a bit from some aggresive noise reduction. Vincent Price was a little hard to understand at times, and in the offscreen argument scene you could't hear some of his lines at all! They were perfectly audible on the Corman commentary, along with a bit of noise and hiss.

Yes - I bought the set last week from that famous store near Covent Garden that sells US imports before release date...

I think it looks fantastic. Usher is slightly darker than the Arrow, but still looks great. Masque's colours are wonderful, and Witchfinder & Phibes are stunning transfers. The booklet is nice too.

All I'd say is that the packaging feels/looks a bit cheap compared to Shout's usual standard...

If you're a Price fan, then you can buy this with total confidence, in my opinion.

Would you mind PMing me the name of this shop as I cannot find it at all. I am fed up paying $50-60 to import from amazon.com!!! and would rather browse in the shop & pay slightly less to them instead of $25 express airmail with amazon for BD imports to the UK !!!

It sounds fine. I had no trouble understanding any of the dialogue. See my review here:
