chirs3 Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 Predictably, once the sale starts, most of what I want isn't there anymore. Still, Dead Like Me (Season 2) and the Haibane Renmei boxed set = worth it. Thanks for the heads up!
Hank Kingsley Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 Same question that's always asked: does this work on pre-orders? Syriana comes out on Tuesday.
Bruiser Chong Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 Nope. Except for possibly the first sale or two, this promotion's never worked on pre-orders.
Hank Kingsley Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 That's actually just as well, as I'm sure stores will have it on sale for $16 or so the first week.
Guest Brian Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 Well, I just spent $125 fairly easily. Now to wait for the next sale.
Bruiser Chong Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 That's nothing. Some folks at DVD Talk are spending close to a grand. One guy, a college student, spent over $1600.
Guest NYankees Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 That's nothing. Some folks at DVD Talk are spending close to a grand. One guy, a college student, spent over $1600. He must be really rich and have alot of free time or very stupid to spend 1600 dollars on dvd's.
Guest Miss Indy Queen Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Awesome. For how long is the sale on ? The sale ends June 17th
Youth N Asia Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Ballsack, I'm without computer and don't have much internet time. I may have to try and make a buy soon though. Although it won't beat picking up seasons 1 and 2 of the Wire new for $25...gotta love the shoplifters.
the max Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 No idea when it expires, but enter "XM" as a code and you get 20% off...

He must be really rich and have alot of free time or very stupid to spend 1600 dollars on dvd's. I believe his justification was he was just "living it up" and/or film was something he liked to study/analyze. Or something. I love film, too, but unless I had an endless supply of bank, I'm not spending that much on DVDs.
slimm44 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 No idea when it expires, but enter "XM" as a code and you get 20% off... Also good until June 17th
Sideburnious Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Meh, I'd love to buy a shitload of dvds but i'm pretty broke right now. I shockingly haven't bought a dvd in months (as to where i was buying at least one a week).
Dobbs 3K Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Now that I'm a new homeowner, I rarely buy DVDs, CDs, etc. Amazing how much money it saves. Yeah, it would be nice to get some new movies every now and then, but I usually just buy used when Blockbuster or Movie Gallery have a special (like 4 for $20 or whatever).

He must be really rich and have alot of free time or very stupid to spend 1600 dollars on dvd's. Money + no sense of priority = disaster. They probably live at home or rent cheaply and aren't saving for the future (house, car). I can't get over how a lot of them are buying up stuff like TV series that you can watch for free on any variety of cable stations. Especially something like Law and Order, which I think is on three different stations in syndication! Ludicrous. That said, this is the only time I buy DVDs, and since I'm very very particular about what I purchase, I think I did okay. Sure I spent about $150, and I have a mortgage to pay and two kids to support, but for all the stuff I don't buy all year, I think I'm entitled to this one luxury. (Actually, two, since the sale also runs in November, but I use it to buy Xmas presents. )
LivingLegendGaryColeman Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 Thanks to the people who posted this coupon code. I picked up a lot of stuff cheap, under a hundred bucks I got: 3 gifts, South Park Season 7 (the best deal of the whole sale), Royal Rumble 06, Backlash 06, Dave Chappelle's Block Party and 16 Blocks. So much more I want to get too. Thinking about some of the TV shows still, like Robot Chicken and Super Mario Bros. Super Show.
