Any chance Costco would allow mixing and matching?

I want All About Eve, The Song of Bernadette, Anastasia and Sunrise.

(I already have Sunrise, but it's for someone else.)

Nope. You've obviously never picked up DVDs from CostCo. I'm not sure they're even in Canada. When I said 'oversized plastic CostCo packaging', I wasn't just being funny. You'd have to destroy two packages to mix and match. Think of plastic packaging where you literally have to use a knife to open it, then twist and pull to rip it apart enough to get the goodies. That really tough stuff. As for the oversized part, I'd estimate it was about 1 1/2 to 2 feet wide. I can take a photo and post it if you'd like. The point is, you couldn't easily swap discs.

Now the next question is can you use the three from the set to get a second copy of Sunrise? I'm not sure why I would or who I'd give it to, just curious really.

The other contains An Affair to Remember, Song of Bernadette, Love is a Many Splendored Thing and Sunrise.

I'm on this like ugly on an ape. I was just getting ready to order these 3 through DDD to get Sunrise, when I stumbled on this thread.

Thanks William!

I think this is prevented by the need to suppy an itemized receipt. My Costco receipt just says "DVD/CLASSICS".

 

[Rain]

I don't believe the receipt has to be itemized. Not all retailers here provide itemized receipts and I had no problem at all getting a copy of Sunrise.

There is no Costco store near me and I can't seem to find the deal on the www.costco.com website.... Is it on there?

 

[Malcolm R]

I don't think so. The website doesn't always match what's in-store.

Interesting. I'd love to know if someone tries this and succeeds. Not sure what I'd do with a second copy, but for $2.50, I'm sure I could find someone who'd want it.

If you want 2 copies of Sunrise, you might just buy 2 of these sets rather than trying to see what you can "get out of Fox". It's not like these sets aren't a good value unto themselves.

I don't know all of these movies. I know I'm specifically interested in the following:

All About Eve
An Affair to Remember

Could anyone give a breif description of the other films for someone who loves films, but doesn't know much about the classics?

I don't want two copies and I'm not really trying to get anything out of Fox. I was just wondering. It may have sounded suspicious, but I was really just curious.

As for reviews, I'd recommend going back through Ron's old reviews Ron's DVD Reviews or check out The DVD Journal. I'm not sure how many Ron reviewed, but he did serveral. The DVD Journal has reviewed most of them I believe.

I have the two classics you are talking about. Simply awesome and a really funny anecdote about All About Eve.

A small cameo from Marilyn Monroe is worth the admission price alone.

What's the chance the Sunrise dvd may be released at some point on it's own in retail stores?
