Google $10 off $10 DVD deals

[hopeunknown]

I figured since there's one in the VGD forum, might as well start one here. :)

I've gotten some good deals off DVDPlanet...

Lady Vengeance - $6.95
2046 - $5.49
Grave of the Fireflies (non-SE) - $2.95 :hot:

Plus their Criterion sale is still on. You can get quite a few Criterions that'd otherwise be $30-40 for $10-20. Not too shabby. :D

[Deadpool]

Sweet

[animemaniac14]

lotsa good deals on some new releases like The Illusionist and The Protector :-D also some AMAZING anime deals...too much to list here...

[doubledown]

HD-DVD and Blu-Ray's are the BIG deals too, since they are RARELY on sale.

Bestprices.com seems to have the "Best Prices" on these also.

[Brian9824]

Is there a list of sites that accept this? Also can you keep making new google checkout accounts?

[Makaveli_The_Don]

Wait so I don't get the deal?


$10 off a DVD that cost $10? So does that mean its free? Or almost free if the dvd cost like $10.49?

[Brian9824]

$10 off base cost. Still have to pay tax and shipping. So you will never get anything free

[Makaveli_The_Don]

Ended up getting The Church & Creepozoids for $1.74 Total.

No Tax

Shipping only $1


Pretty Good Deal



I wonder if you can do this deal more than once?

[OuTrAgE]

Is there a list of sites that accept this? Also can you keep making new google checkout accounts?

The major stores that accept it in my mind:
Buy.com
Toysrus.com
CDUniverse.com
DVDPlanet.com
DVDEmpire.com

And yes you can keep making new google checkout accounts. I've done it about 5 times with the same name, same address, and same credit card... just a different email address.

[OuTrAgE]

Picked up Crank for less than $10 shipped at DVDPlanet.

Too bad it doesn't work on preorders there.

[Maklershed]

Hmm. I wonder if I can get The Descent super cheap?

[Oddball]

Anyone know of any filler to bump the $9.xx movies up to $10?

[alfonsosoriano]

I got Evil Dead 2 Book of the Dead for $10 and 8 1/2 Criterion for $16.

Fantastic deals!

[BustaUppa]

Old-school TMNT DVDs come out to $3.98 shipped at BestPrices.com

[vaindioux]

-Cube (SE)
-Jaws 3
-The howling 2

All 3 shipped from DVD planet for $15.97. I have the whole series now for these movies.

Thanks OP

This thing is driving me nuts. I've tried both accounts I've used before as well as brand new gmail accounts I've made, and I can't get the $10 thing to work.

I'm familiar with the process since I used it to death during the buy.com thing. The checkout goes fine but once I'm on the "submit and place order" screen through Google Checkout, there's no $10 discount. Is anyone else not getting the $10 to come up? Both dvdplanet and bestprices don't work for me.

And yes, the thing I'm trying to get is in stock.

[jza1218]

I took advantage of the B1G1 TV Boxed Set deal and bought Huff Season 1 and Just Shoot Me Seasons 1+2 for $24 after S+H at DVDplanet

[Gden]

I got the 3 x 3 eyes collection used from dvdplanet for only 12$, very good deal that's about 80% off retail

Same problem here...

[hero101]

Thanks, it worked at dvdplanet for me. I'm wondering if I could use this over and over w/o making new e-mail account. I rather not keep track of those e-mail accounts. It will just drive me up the wall.:roll:

[alfonsosoriano]

The other day I also got in on City of God for $4.38 and Lady Vengeance for $6.95. Fantastic prices.

[captainfrizo]

Damn. I can't get this to work at all. I've tried new e-mail addresses and everything in two different browsers even just to see if it would make a difference.

[Kuma]

i wish this worked on preorders, Yojimbo/Sanjuro with 25% off - $10 = sweet

[Graystone]

Damn. I can't get this to work at all. I've tried new e-mail addresses and everything in two different browsers even just to see if it would make a difference.

Did you try another credit card for the new account

[R.E.K.]

I got City of God for $2.90 at buy.com.... can't beat that....

Are you making the account while your in checkout or ahead of time?

It's worked everytime for me except once. That one time it didn't work, I filled out the information during the checkout procedure... so I'm guessing it might not work that way. If you've been filling out the information during the checkout, try going to checkout.google.com and setting up your account their.

Yep, that's what I've been doing. I'll give it a shot.

*Edit* - No dice. Oh well.

I tried doing this a few times the other night. Four went through, but the fifth one wouldn't so I just let it go. The four have shipped, but I just received this email:

Ooops.:oops: Well, just a heads-up to everyone else I suppose. Like I said, it looks like my first four have shipped, so I'm just gonna leave well enough alone & go back to being a good little Google Checkout user from now on. O:)

[Firwar]

you know you love google checkout =D

[lordopus99]

It seems the movie I want is "on order" so it won't let me use google checkout :(

[daewezzy]

Is that paypal debit card free and how long did it take them to ship it to you?

[hopeunknown]

i think you have to have the seller account (premiere i think) and it took about a week or two to get to me

[hopeunknown]

fyi, dvdplanet ships like DDD, in cardboard box thingies. i got 2 of my orders in one box, pretty convenient. a little slower but no biggie to me.

i'm debating on buying more stuff, but not sure what. so far i've nabbed 2046, lady vengeance, grave of the fireflies, sex and fury, delicatessen (used), angel links vol 1, and devil's backbone for a total of probably like $20-25. any recommendations?

i've been thinking of picking up pink flamingos for $1.95 shipped, haha. i was also thinking maybe tetsuo: the iron man for 9ish, storytelling or palindromes (10ish each), orrrr I don't even know what. Any recommendations?

[SlaughterX]

So this is only for new customers too huh? :(
