[NeilO]

I didn't order all that much (just ~$130) I placed the order on Saturday and it arrived today (the following Saturday).

Vicar of Dibley - Divine Collection
To the Manor Born - Complete Series
Jonny Quest - 1st Complete Season
Star Trek 5 - Final Frontier

I decided that with the sale, STV was finally inexpensive enough to buy. I haven't seen it since possibly opening day. That item actually is back ordered and won't arrive for a week.

I had also ordered The Moody Blues - The Lost Performance Live in paris '70 which was a preorder not supposed to be available until next week. So, I had put that in a separate order, but they apparently had it in stock and included it with the items from the sale. It was only $8 anyway.

[Albert_M]

well last weekend when I first heard about it, I made an order that I received on thrusday for about $75:

Charade (Criterion)
Third Man (Criterion)
Planet of the Apes (Complete TV Series)

Then I realized I should take more advantage of the sale and ordered Buffy Season 6 for my girlfriend plus

Planet of the Apes movie box set

2 History Channel documentaries that are excellent:

JFK: A Presidency Revealed - it chronicles everything that happened during his term, not just his death or any one subject


The Last Days of WW2

Both of these cost at least $23-24 at Best Buy and with the sale I paid I think less than $13...

and I ordered a doc. that I haven't seen been some good stuff, called "easy riders, Raging Bulls" about some great films/directors during the 70s....

Overall, I ended up spending around $200


By the way from the day that I receive the "shipped" e-mail, it was the 4th day that I received my first order...

I certainly can't complain about that!

 

[Citizen87645]

I had to take it easy, after having visited Hollywood Video multiple times and saving up for the HTF meet.

[RyanAn]

...I remember when reel.com had a thing called "Bottle Rocket" were if you answered enough triva, one question for a day, for about a month, you would get a $10 credit to their site. I set up literally 20+ accounts, and would get a few DVDs a week, all brand new, for around $7 including shipping. Duece Bigalow, Next Friday, just to name a few. I think people like me made them stop having that sale,

[JustinCleveland]

I hear it's pretty good!
On a tangent, where were you all when I needed inspiration!! I never thought about The Tick, Dilbert, or a host of other programs I'd been putting off because the prices were outrageous. I'm very dissapointed in all of you for not making me spend more.

 

[Ed Faver]

Thank God for this sale! I almost blew a $50 Barnes & Noble gift card to get the CC edition of THE LEOPARD. DDD's price w/20% was $28.50 & arrived in 5 days at the free shipping option.

 

[Steve_Smith]

This was the first DDD 20% sale I've ordered on, it sure makes a "on the fence due to price" purchase very easy to fall on the 'buy it" side Only becuae of this great sale I ordered all volumes of the Sherlock Holmes UCLA restored DVD's, including the Hound's and Adventure, and Frasier season 3 for kicks

Now to fight the urge to buy now and just save up for the next one

 

[Jeff D]

$1 each for each troma disc... you got ripped off! Didn't you get in on the $0.25 each disc sale? I did, and I'm still not sure if I got ripped off. =)

Here's to DDD bringin' back the thrill of the old glory days!

I'm still cursing DDD, and thanking the gods that the sale is over. I only got 2 orders in and one was to beat out items I had bought in the previous month. The second order... well, there's $125 that I didn't want to spend. =(

Thanks DDD for making DVD purchases a thrill again.
