Huge selection (Even more 5/10) of HD-DVD's $4.74/free shippping on $25+ @ Amazon

von551

CAGiversary!
Probably one of the best HD-DVD deals I've seen yet. Free shipping on orders over $25 and a huge selection (181 movies as of 5/10), much better than Inetvideo's. Orders are fullfilled by Amazon, so orders over $25 get free Super Saver Shipping. I thought I was done collecting HD-DVD's, but this sale made it easier to get some of the movies that aren't must-haves. Getting 11 movies for $65 is nice! LINK

My list:
The Kingdom
Eastern Promises
Casino
Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Mallrats
Hot Fuzz
Deer Hunter
American Me
Happy Gilmore
Traffic

[quote name='manthing']Umm...people that have an attention span longer than a flea's?

This thread is completely redundant. You discovered a 26 cent price drop, not a polio vaccine. Get over yourself.[/quote]

The last post in that thread was Feb. 21. They're merged now anyway, you see there is a thing called a mod to take care of horrible worthless posts.

Go away.
 
[quote name='Cloggerdude']Come now guys.

Here's a Cadbury egg for both of you.[/quote]

Yeah, like I wasn't going to respond to that. He didn't even get his facts straight. It was a bigger drop than he said AFAIK, and when you're talking HDDVDs under $5, any drop is a nice drop since people are probably going to buy a ton at once.

Complaining about not adding to a thread without a post for over a month--what planet is he from?

Just tired of the mod-wannabes on this board, more than anything else.

DAMMIT! I told myself I wouldn't buy any more of these. Oh well, what's 23 more?

Hey, it's almost cheaper than a rental.
 
I grabbed a few more. The good news for me is soon i will have all of the ones they are offering (so the temptation to buy will be gone!! ha ha)
 
Wow so cheap picked up a few thanks

Just watched The Kingdom recently for the first time and it's awesome! If anyone has yet to get it, do. One of the most intense endings I've seen and best movie in it's genre.

Yikes, I thought it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I've traveled through the middle east extensively, and I thought it was a pretty overt, disgusting example of trying to make money off of people's fears and misunderstandings. (this is the one with Jamie Foxx in Saudi Arabia...right?)

I'd rather watch Fox News and listen to Michael Savage for my dramatic story telling and lies.

It's either that one or Jarhead.

isn't it a movie? not a docu? i just meant it's an entertaining movie, sure they threw the politics in the beginning, but in the end it was cool how it showed we both view the other side as the monster. i liked how intense the end was and i don't think it was a fear-monger like some movies can be. then again, never been out there.
 
[quote name='TDAGARIM']Back to $5 each.[/quote]

Whew! I'm glad I picked up a few more before heading to work this morning! I saved about $5 for being impatient, awesome!! Picked up Battlestar Galactica for 9.99 as opposed to 12.99!
 
Prices are currently down just a lil' bit again. The $5 movies are down to $4.64, but most noteworthy is that Heroes and Battlestar Galactica are down to $9.44 if anyone hasn't picked those up yet.

All great prices, hard not to spend even you didn't really want anything.

I am so glad I grabbed this player a few weeks ago. You can't beat these prices for movies. Combining the movies I'm buying today and the one I got when I first bout the 360 addon, I'm getting 12 movies for around $55. Hard to beat that.
 
The selection is much weaker now than when HD DVDs were first being sold for $5. Really the only one I still want that is $5 is Hustle & Flow, and Sparticus a little bit. Wake me up when I can get all the WB titles for $5 =\
 
Thanks for the info on the slight price reduction. Ordered:

Land of the Dead (Unrated Director's Cut)
Liar Liar
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Dawn of the Dead
The Kingdom
Face Off
 
[quote name='GizmoGC']WHat are the new titles?[/QUOTE]

Its pretty much the same titles as before. The only difference right now is the price on most of them is $4.74. The only one I paid more for on is "Land Of The Dead" at around $5ish. Still six HD-DVDs for under $30 is damn good.
 
Inetvideo doing their monthly free shipping on orders over $50. The titles that were 1.99 for the most part went up to 2.99 or 3.99, but considering you can score free shipping on everything, it's actually a pretty good deal. Same disclaimer as usual: Expect most of these titles will have English and French on the covers (movie will of course be in English), so collectors beware.
 
Price drops on most of the titles. prices noww start at $3.49 and Battlestar and Heroes boxes are $8.49. 170 titles with some really good deals. I orded the last 32 I didn't have for $125. my collection is over 220 movies now!!!:bouncy:
 
I just picked up another 6 HD-DVD's for $25 and change (just enough to get me to free shipping). I wish they'd start selling some WB HD-DVD's as i'm running out of Universal / Paramount HD-DVD's that I want or don't already own.
 
I literally placed an order two days ago, and the prices got cut in half the next day. Sooooo frustrating.

I bought 13 movies new for $50.86 from them 2 days ago using this deal. I have been debating it for some time, but the e-mail pushed me to do it.:lol:
 
These films are marked at $1.99 right now...

Cinderella Man [HD DVD]
Serenity [HD DVD]
Happy Gilmore [HD DVD]
Friday Night Lights [HD DVD]
Babel [HD DVD]
Transformers (Two-Disc Special Edition) [HD DVD]
Top Gun [HD DVD]
Inside Man [HD DVD]
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (Unrated) [HD DVD]
Old School (Unrated) [HD DVD]
Arctic Tale [HD DVD]

...but they don't qualify for free shipping anymore, so they actually cost about the same as the average normal prices. Does traderbora think we're fucking stupid?
 
They probably just ran out of movies that Amazon can ship so they dropped the prices to keep them about equal to what they were before.
 
Thanks OP - took some time paring the list down, but it looks like I expanded my library by quite a bit:

Lost in Translation
Meet Joe Black
Hot Fuzz
Beowulf
The Pianist
40 yr old virgin

Total: 25.08 w/ FSSS
 
yup, i grabbed a few more (6 titles) for 25.35 with FSSS. The good news is that i am running out of titles that i want with my collection heading closer to 80 movies!! Soon the temptation will be gone.. :)
 
[quote name='Bervda']I literally placed an order two days ago, and the prices got cut in half the next day. Sooooo frustrating.[/QUOTE]
I noticed the price drop after placing an order also. I checked an order had not shipped yet. I was going to cancel and place new order. I checked if all 6 were in stock and added to my cart. I went back to cancel order and now it said shipping soon. Is Amazon using some kind of computer progam to make sure we don't cancel and place order for cheaper price or just coincidence?:bomb:
 
many of the movies that qualify for free shipping have increased significantly. For example, MI3 is now 12.99 and Bourne Supremacy is now 16.99. A number of titles are still around the $2 mark but do not qualify for free shipping. Still not too bad of a deal.

Is it just me or is this misleading? I checked and it says "shipped from and sold by Traderbora" on all the movies I selected... Sure you can go and pay $10 more per movie to get it "fulfillment by amazon" which makes those movies "eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping". I fail to see where this is a deal if you have to pay $2.99 shipping on each movie from Traderbora. Yes the .99c movies are an alright deal at $4 total but there are only a small handful of those. Feel free to correct me where I'm wrong.

27 Items - $44.23
Shipping - $80.46
Promotion Applied - -$17.40
Total = $107.29

it looks like the deal off FSSS is dead for now but it will be back!! :) Also those movies from traderbora were not included with the FSSS so yeah they will be charging for shipping and that kind of kills the deal. :(

Ah okay that explains it then, thanks for clearing that up. I was wondering why the link was to the movies from Traderbora and then had the OP text with what I quoted about FSSS. Thanks again.

Nah man, I think it's the principle of things. It feels goofy dropping $30 in shipping for $12 in movies.

Aww I'm so sorry! Umm yeah not so much considering I was asking a question and also making a point, thanks though! :lol:
