Yeah, they had them during the last two 20% sales. But, a lot of their prices were a few bucks more than Amazon. I have that 10% off all my HD purchases through Amazon, so it didn't benefit me to order through DDD. Right now, Transformers on HD is cheaper than Amazon... So certain titles will be cheaper than we (anyone with the 10% off HD) can get on a daily basis through Amazon. Those are the titles I'll be looking at purchasing.
This really comes at a bad time of year for me, as no one I buy gifts for is really into DVD's. So I end up spending a bunch of money on me that I should be spending on other boring gifts.
I'd love to get a bunch of Hd discs as well.....but I'm so back logged on sd dvd's I'll use this sale to play catch up. I'll worry about the Hd discs at a later date.
I agree that the DDD HD prices are nothing to write home about, especially in light of all the deals popping up recently, so I went looking around the DVD Planet website instead and placed a couple of 20%-off orders there with the code ("20offsale") that vendor has released (multiple-use code, not one-time like the various DDD codes):
Order #1:
Catalog:HVD001863 (new) Title:Bad Sleep Well (1960) Criterion Collection Qty:1 Price:$15.57
I also put in an order at DVDPlanet who are also having a 20% off sale ( both are owned by the same company- but they aren't always consistent with the lowest prices- Planet usually beats DD handily on Criterions , for example)
FYI: DVDP's code expires 11/21, while DD's is good until 11/25.

Thanks for the heads up, but unfortuneately I probably won't be able to purchase much, if anything. The not-for-profit organization I work for has to dissolve at the end of January 2008, and I don't have any new job lined up yet.
