For those who might be interested...KL's season one Outer Limits Blu-ray set has price dropped on Amazon Canada to $69.97 CANADIAN dollars...at the current exchange rate, that is $54.22 AMERICAN dollars...even with shipping fees, some of you USA customers might save considerably by ordering from Amazon Canada...the inexplicable automated Amazon pricing algorithms often don't make any sense from my perspective, and in this case I'm not complaining, ha, ha... of course, the recent price drop (down $17 Canadian, $13.17 American) coincided with the Canadian dollar FALLING against the U.S. greenback, which of course should have made the season one Blu pricier!

If you're in the USA then you might as well buy it directly from Kino. The Kino price is $64.97 including free shipping and no sales tax. At Amazon.ca, once I placed the set in my basket and got to the final page before clicking on place your order in US dollars, the final price in American dollars was $64.43 which includes international shipping. It's a 54 cent difference, but I bet you get your Kino order faster and it's easier to exchange if there is a problem.

That's a very good deal too, Robert! I've ordered direct from KL a number of times and found their service to be fast and efficient as well...and hopefully, ordering direct from them might mean a higher netback for KL per unit sold too...for my own order, I can't beat the Amazon Canada deal...$54 + 5% tax with free shipping to my Canadian address...I can hardly wait to get this in my filthy paws come March 27th...

The Amazon.ca price is $64.05 for me. I'd rather order direct from Kino and give them all the profit rather than have to share any with Amazon! I need to get that done before they raise their online price!

Option if you're just shopping price
Deep Discount is $58 with FS and no sales tax for most people. At some point this month DD is sure to have a 15% code so a chance to drop it below $50 around release date ASSUMING it stays in stock and same price.

 

[BobO'Link]

And for a slightly lower price, DVD Planet has it for $56.22 w/free shipping (don't know about tax - I don't pay it when ordering from them). I think they're owned by the the same parent company as DeepDiscount.

 

[Doug Wallen]

Finally pre-ordered this one. Guess my son will now get the Australian complete DVD set that I picked up about this time last year. Will pick up the second in the fall I guess. Can't wait to view these HD masters.

 

[JohnHopper]

I also pre-ordered the set in March. I am eager to listen to the audio commentaries
and witness the quality of the restored prints.

 

[David Norman]

Deep Discount down to $54 now.

Orders from Diabolik have starting shipping and 2-3 people have received copies already.
1st Impression reports seem pretty postive

I just ordered a set from Diabolik. There's no way I can wait 'til the 27th.

You weren't graced with a copy after having been involved in the release?

 

[Craig Beam]

I think I'm getting one. Not 100% sure. Even if I am, I'm gonna want more than one copy.

 

[Hollywoodaholic]

Ouch, I've still got two more weeks to wait.

Thanks for Kino tip. Just ordered from them.
In my experience I've found Amazon CA to be thee worst customer service on the planet for US orders.
Quit even bothering with them years ago. They take longer than Amazon UK.
Doing a search for this disc, the hero link shows a 3rd party seller for ~90CAD. Click on the other offers, hey! there's Amazon for ~70CAD.
No direct link just add to cart. Cart shows ~9CAD shipping. Yeah maybe if you bl0w me & send a donut from Tim Horton's

Does anyone know if copies of the Outer Limits Blu-ray available in Canada have bilingual (English/French) packaging?
