All credit for this find goes to kill3r7, who originally posted this deal in the HD-DVD Discussion thread.

Borders has almost all of their HD-DVDs on sale for $9.99. While a lot of these aren't that exciting for that price, if you keep on searching you will find some amazing deals.

http://www.borders.com/online/store/...mpid=e4-112708

For instance, I got all of these for $9.99 a piece:
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Heroes: Season 1[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Season One[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The Best of HD DVD, Vol. 1
[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Planet Earth: The Complete Collection[/FONT]

I wanted to share this with the CAG community. I thought about just letting my order process to avoid possible cancellation, but this deal is just too good not to share with you guys. Hopefully it's not a price mistake, but we shall see.
 
Got Shipping confirmation on Honneamise, it was the only item I ordered, which was around 1hr after the OP posted.
 
Hmm...not good news based on your guys' posts. I hope mines goes through even though it's not a boxset.

It's a pre-order for The Dark Knight blu-ray ($23.99). Total in-pocket expense was $3.83 after applying a $25 gift card.
 
I just got a shipping confirmation for Planet Earth. The rest of my order is still showing In Process. It's strange that RobotSimp got a shipping confirmation for Honneamise already, since I haven't received one and he obviously ordered after me.

Ah well, I guess we will see what happens.

If nothing else, I'm happy to get Planet Earth finally.

? If that's a joke, I don't get it.

I haven't gotten any change of status on my orders...yet.
 
I ordered 3 hd-dvd's, (2) got canceled... The Best of HD DVD, Vol. 1 [HD] and Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise [HD] - CANCELLED.
The Reaping [HD] is still In Process..... I ordered on Nov 30, 9pm PST

Aww hamburgers. I didn't read the OP, assuming that it was about the 40% off boxsets online coupon (CM2008, expires 12/02).

Damn, I fail...badly. *Puts head down and walks away from thread.*
 
Royal Space Force was canceled this afternoon according to my email. Battlestar Galactica is also canceled when I went to the order status page. Gotta find somewhere else to use the gift card. I tried to add Battlestar Galactica and order again since it is still listed for the sale price and ships within 24 hours, but the Cart has an error when I try to checkout.
 
I got a Shipping confimation for Honneamise as well, all others in process still none cancelled. I ordered just before 1pm EST time yesterday...or about 1 1/2 hrs after the OP.
 
All my items were cancelled last night... tried getting in on it shortly after it was posted here but had checkout problems... oh well
 
I received a shipping confirmation for BSG and Heroes - Planet Earth is still 'In Process.' My guess is that it's going to be cancelled. Shucks, that's the one I really wanted.
 
[quote name='sarienanj']That link is for the SD? The HD DVD, along with 100 or so other HD DVD were deleted from the Borders site, and now no longer appear.[/QUOTE]

at that price, i'm pretty sure it's the hd-dvd... or the blu-ray
 
I ordered Sopranos 6.1 and 6.2 along with the Best of HDDVD. When checking my order online, the title says the correct thing, but the link to the items are all the best of hddvd. I hope I don't get 3 of the best of. I don't want to call them for fear of cancellation either.
 
Mine went from Backordered when I placed the order... to In Process and my Credit Card has already been charged... so fingers crossed. ;)
 
Got emailed this morning that my Wings of Honneamise shipped. Both BSG and Planet Earth still list "In Process" but betting they will eventually cancel out those two. ; ;
 
Well they shipped my Dispatch concert, but it still says In Process for The Fountain. I couldnt get Planet Earth, hopefully i can get Fountain at least.
 
Just got 3 "go fuck yourself" email confirming cancellation (emails came at 5:30am EST this morning).

I can live with loosing out on "the best of" boxset and "Zodiac", but I can believe that they screwed me on "Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise"!!!!!

I even waited until 12:50am EST on Dec. 1st to order. All items were listed as "in process". Well, I should have known:bomb::shame:
 
Transformers shipped; still waiting on Wings of Honneamise and Heroes: Season 1. Ordered at 2:30 on Sunday, still say in process. :pray:
 
My Wings of Honnemaise order shipped, glad I ordered as soon as it was posted... now I'm wishing I had more money.
 
I'm still seeing "In Process" as well. Order confirmation came at 2:50pm Nov 30th. Only ordered 1 copy of Wings of Honneamise.

Uh oh, I better check my gift card balance...
 
Those of you concerned about seeing a refund - are the charges just Authorizations? If they are they should just drop by themselves in a couple days and won't clear.

Also, just for kicks, I logged back in to check on my Planet Earth status and all of the titles I ordered now have the Heroes SKU and image attached to them. Apparently they're having some problems on the site, hehe.

Unfortunately, you ordered very late in the day if your order was placed Sunday night. This deal popped up around mid-day Sunday. I would think most people who ordered early on will receive their orders.
