I think, technically, they could get away with refusing to refund the pre-orders because, as you noted, the price didn't drop until after the end of the guarantee period. But I also think to do so would violate the spirit and intended purpose of the pre-order guarantee. So if it were me, I...

On another note, the Bruce Lee set is currently the #1 seller on Amazon's Blu-ray chart with a price of $62.49, which is the same as B&N. So it appears they price matched the sale. Since B&N currently has it out of stock on their site. there's another chance for those of you who want to get...

My copies of The Squid and the Whale and Inside Llewyn Davis ordered last Friday just showed up in the mail. That was quick. Marriage Story obviously still forthcoming. There are a few more I would like to get but I think I will save them for a future sale. $63.63 for the three discs I...

Yesterday, I had an impulse to order Fantastic Mr. Fox and Smiles of a Summer Night together, but wasn't able to pull the trigger because the B&N website didn't have both in stock at the same time. Now, with a little bit of clarity, I'm thinking that maybe I don't need to do that right this...

I have Fantastic Mr. Fox in my cart now, and it does show as $19.99, so I should be able to purchase it for that price whenever it cycles back into stock. Like many others, it's out of stock for the moment.

Thanks. The cancel option is gone -- in fact, I just got shipping confirmation on the two in-stock titles I ordered as part of it -- so I'll leave it alone. Is the lack of a DVD the only difference between the editions? If so, that doesn't bother me as I would never use a DVD of something...

I have an unusual question. Yesterday, I bought three Criterion titles on sale, including Marriage Story, which is a pre-order. Today, I found one more Criterion, Smiles of a Summer Night, that I would really like to get as part of the sale..but by itself, it won't qualify for free shipping...

Hang on, am I understanding you correctly? You ordered an item that was in stock and then your copy became backordered after you already placed the order? And then they cancelled it on you? If so, that's messed up. Because the items I ordered today are back out-of-stock again a few hours...

I think you are right. Or it could even be sooner if you happen to look at the right moment. Stuff that was out of stock last night and this morning reappeared this afternoon just in time for me to buy it before going out of stock again. So they're apparently going to go on this...

I have previously been able to exchange an open disc if it is defective (or, technically, I guess it would also work if I claim it's defective since they're not actually going to pop it in a player in the store to test it) and I'm asking for a replacement of the same thing. I've never been able...

The two in-stock discs I bought online a few hours ago have gone out of stock again for the second time in less than 24 hours. :laugh: I got my order in so I'm going to get them. But this just demonstrates that B&N is going to have a bunch of stuff going in and out of stock over and over...

I thought the exact same thing as you last night and this morning, and I was really ticked off. You can see the posts. But then everything I wanted to get in this order returned to stock this afternoon. Keep checking. I bet you'll get lucky before the end of the sale.

My local store has one. I haven't been there since last year's sale, but it's there, and it seemed to me like they had a pretty good size selection too.

Well, I'm happy now after all. Ron and David were correct. Both The Squid and the Whale and Inside Llewyn Davis showed up as restocked this afternoon, so I grabbed them. $63.63 shipped for them plus the pre-order of Marriage Story. The first two will arrive Friday, and Marriage Story will...

Last month, Amazon discounted the price of the Roma Criterion editions to $17.99 for a bit. This of course caused a rush of orders, and it was "temporarily out of stock" when I saw it, but I was able to place my order anyway and they would deliver when they got it back in. I waited 3 weeks to...

Well, this is not my day. First, Inside Llewyn Davis went out of stock online as I mentioned a couple hours ago. Now, The Squid and the Whale is also out of stock online. So the only one of the three that they could ship to me from the website is Marriage Story, which can't go out of stock...

Well, crap. My credit card billing cycle ends today, so I was waiting until morning to place my order. In the interim, Inside Llewyn Davis went out of stock online, even though it was in stock less than an hour ago. It is in stock at my local store, so I could mark it for pickup, but given...

I've got Marriage Story on Blu-ray in my cart right now. Here is the link: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/dvd-marriage-story-scarlett-johansson/34169528?ean=0715515248815 I assume the Bruce Lee set price will go down. I refreshed my cart a few times over the course of the last hour and...

I don't actually know if my local B&N is open for in-store shopping. They might be doing curbside pickup of online orders, but we've been particularly hard hit with the virus of late here. Over the last couple of years, a Criterion sale would get me into the store, but this year I'm just going...

I can't speak to their whole release schedule, as I don't keep track quite that closely, so someone else would need to do the whole list. But the most recent Criterions that I got are: Cuarón's Roma (spine number #1014) which came out in February; and Portrait of a Lady On Fire (spine number...

Good. Thanks. Marriage Story is releasing on July 21, so I would hope that the other two would ship first since it is a matter of a couple weeks. I'll probably do the order at the end of the week if the sale prices do in fact go live as expected.

Good to know. Thanks. Would that incur an extra shipping charge or no?

Criterion puts out so much good stuff that even during a sale, it would not be practical for me to purchase everything that I want at one time. So I've been thinking about which ones I will get during this sale and which ones I would put off until a future one. I decided that, if this sale...
