So Shout! Is asking $32 for the UHD combo. Are thier discs usually best priced by them or is there somewhere else I should look?

I don't like to pre order for more than $30.00 a UHD I haven't seen. Normally I'd just wait for a post release sale but I really liked this movie.

I would bet that pretty much any other online retailer will be cheaper than that. Amazon tends to have Shout UHDs just under $30.
