2016 Black Friday Blu Ray DVD Deals (1 Viewer)

[dpippel]

There are some pretty good Blu-ray/4K deals floating around right now.

Do we have any indication of Amazon's sales?

To that end, I've bought Ghostbusters 3D, The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies 3D, Edge of Tomorrow 3D, and Jupiter Ascending 3D for $19.99 from Amazon within the past week, all new and from Amazon directly. I already have them but I saw the 3D versions of Iron Man 3, Dial M For Murder, Jurassic Park 3D, Jurassic World 3D and several other good choices were also under $20. Whether they're advertising it as a 3D sale or not, they've got some good prices going on at the moment - just mentioning in case that might be of interest to anyone.

And that's sort of been my trouble. When it came out my daughter and I went to see Edge of Tomorrow in 3D at the IMAX in King of Prussia, PA. She treated me for father's day or I treated her for her birthday, I don't remember which. Anyhow, the 3D blu-ray price was rediculously high (>25 back when my desired limit was 20). I bought it on a flash sale or BF or Cyber monday for 7.99 for the 2D version. Ditto Iron Man 3. I'm not sure I want to double dip for those titles.

I did however this morning order The Hobbit Trilogy extended Edition 3D from amazon.co.uk for 24.99 GPB (listed at 27.99 but reduced when you check out). today. That works out to 34.04 USD and should be arriving 12/5-12/8 estimated. I posted an offer to trade the digital codes that come with it for US codes for something or other.

My preferences are 3D then Blu, then DVD, but since my parents grew up in the depression (the old one) I have learned the value of money and even though I'm capable of playing anything (except UHD HDR at the moment), I wont overspend except for really really good stuff. So last year at this time I jumped all over a foxconnect sale of TV seasons on DVD for about 8.50 each in DVD even though many of them were available in blu-ray in the $20 range.

Sorry for rambling but when you get on a roll...

Mike,

I think this is specifically for Black Friday and Blu-ray deals.

In the past (though not in the past two years), Amazon actually listed those BF deals far in advance

 

[Mike Frezon]

Gotcha, Ron.

I just figured many of Amazon's Blu deals would end up in those places at one time or another (except for those "flash" deals).

 

[Jason_V]

I miss the calendar.

 

[RolandL]

If I can buy them online I'm interested in a few titles. But if I have to wait in long lines at Best Buy forget about it.

 

[DavidJ]

I miss the calendar.

Me too.

Beyond $9 on bestbuy.com and free shipping. Ordered!!!!

 

[David Norman]

Appears that Amazon single handedly trying to prove Prime Day is better better than Black Friday by pretending BF doesn't exist so they don;t have to come up with deals anymore. I guess they're hoping the legions of people who seem to think Amazon is the only place in the US that sells merchandise will continue to wonder why there arent any sales this week

Got Finding Dory blu at Walmart for $10. Shelf tag had sale price of $15, but it rang up at $10. Not sure how long that price is good.

[Scott Merryfield]

The only title I bought was Star Trek Beyond for $8.99 on Amazon. I had credits available, so it cost me nothing out of pocket.

 

[Sam Posten]

Legend of Tarzan 3D Blu-ray $9.99 right now!

Are you Fing kidding me? The 4K is $45 and doesnt come with the gd 3d version. Seriously, F these greedy bastards.
