NP! good movie..if people can pm then even better!

[ghost80]

SIG always seems to follow a HOT deal with a not-so-hot deal ... I was refreshing the daily killer page until 12:15 or so waiting to see what today's deal was only to think "I delayed my lunch time for this?!" lol ... hoping that a couple more of Universal's December BD releases make it to this sale soon. Thanks again for the posts jaydm!

[BlazinTrini]

Was Kung Fu Panda ever one of their deals? I know I missed out on some of them

[ChopSuey]

Good movie, but the transfer on this blu-ray is pretty bad. Better to wait for the special edition that will come out eventually.

[dfharris]

No, I think you might be thinking of Horton hears a who - which looks awesome in Blu-Ray; esp. @ 12.99 :D

Kinda dissapp. in SIGs daily killer lately, then first few weeks I felt like Norm and Cheers going into SIG - the deals were irresistible.

[kevwo]

you could add the Deal deal of the Day BD bundle
casino royal, hitch, and surf's up for $30

Nope...I wouldn't mind that one though
But I want the Kung Fu Panda..maybe tomorrow or weekend
I missed TDK as well

Yeah, this movie is stunning in blu-ray HD. I got my PV copy for free using 20 Rogers points :twisted:

I have kung Fu panda... already watched it..real good in BD. wouldnt mind trading it for something else. i thought bout bbv but for 10 bux i might as well keep it.. i got it for 14.99 at some sale before.

[dealerguy]

checkout torontomediadvd.com. came across their site while browsing on amazon.ca. they have very limited collection but they have kungfu panda for around $16 brand new. the store is on jarvis st. so you can save shipping if you are in downtown.

Hey Thanks for letting us know..theres also that place in 422 Spadina but havent heard anything in awhile about that..anyone go there recently?..i wouldnt mind visiting that place soon if they have good deals.

[BlazinTrini]

There is a place in the flea market on Albion & Hwy 27 that sells legit blu rays for $20 even which is pretty good

Are they sealed? factory sealed i mean...I find that in flea markets they sell them but they are 'brand new but opened' ..we all know what that means..

The media companies sure have us worked up about prices of Blu-Ray discs, don't they?

I recently noticed the Widescreen versions of the Matrix movies on DVD in bargain bins at Future Shop for $7 each: $21 for the trilogy.

So, the Blu-Ray trilogy is, wha, $80?

I think the right premium for Blu-Ray discs over their DVD counterparts is something like $3. So, when I can get a back-catalogue Blu-Ray disc for $10, that's a "deal". Otherwise, it's just overpriced! (getting "Wanted" at SiG for $13, when it is ~$25 at retail on reguar SDVD, is a DEAL!)

Yup!! I never pay for any blu rays over 15 bux..even new titles i will wait til it goes on sale or if someone is selling it used. My very first Blu ray movie was the Hulk which i paid full price ($32.99) at walmart. I was anxious and i got a blu ray player for my bday. Lol..after that never again....

[winstona]

I checked out www.dvdsnextgengaming.com. It appears that it is actually Starship Troopers 3 that is on sale rather than Starship Troopers. Starship Troopers 3 is crap comparing to the first one, even though it is less crap than Starship Troopers 2...

[ghost80]

I'm starting to feel like the old way the OP did it was better (new thread each time). "GTA blu-ray deals" doesn't jump out at you as much as "WANTED $12.99" :) ... I guess, though, this makes it a little more challenging for lurkers to just pop into the forum, spot a deal, and ruin it.

[wang61]

Does, or has, Sig ever offered any Disney BD as their Daily Killer deal?

[khowells]

SIG did have Prince Caspian a while back.

If you want to order on-line check out CHCanada.com. new movies at 13.99 Blu-Ray

LOL..you got it.. But this way i can just update this thread every day and if i find other deals ill put that as well. Also this gives open discussion on deals that people spot and can share it for everyone..

AND if i find that a HOT deal (like yesterday WANTED) i will put it in the title for it to jump out more.. =)

I saw BBV had both PV @19.99 ea. or two for $30 in Brampton, maybe others have as well. Add the coupons if you are a rewards Member ($2 off one and $4 off the second if you by two) and its more or less the same price - but PV'd.

Was Neil Patrick Harris in 2 or 3? I bet the couldn't afford him any more, since his TVQ is soaring... and somehow, the nerdy queer guy is "cool".

[BlazinTrini]

Are they sealed? factory sealed i mean...I find that in flea markets they sell them but they are 'brand new but opened' ..we all know what that means..

They are factory sealed still even with the sticker with the title on them. not even sliced on that sticker

[jaydm]

yup thats the only way to know if its Legit, gotta have that factory seal.

Eoutlet canada in north york has some good deals too. PMd Forgetting sara marshall the other day at best buy for $12.99..

I refuse to buy a pv version of TDK since it is missing the 2nd disc as BBV supposedly destroys the 2nd disc due to downloadable content when they could keep it and when they sell the movie put that disc back in the case
If I'm buying a movie and its more then 1 disc I want everything

The issue I have with BBV on TDK PV is that the second disc is NOT the digital copy disc but all the extras. If you bought TDK brand new, you will realize there is actually a THIRD disc that is the digital copy. TDK is a 2 disc BR set + a DVD digital copy = total of 3 discs!

Therefore, anyone buying TDK PV at BBV or Rogers is really only buying 1/2 of the contents.

Similar goes with Hellboy2, which they are only selling the movie disc, and scrapped the second disc (which is a DVD that has the digital copy but also a full 2 hours of behind the scenes!!)

Yup that deal is only good for the people who dont care bout the second disc or digital copy...Or if the movie originally only comes with one disc. Im not one to buy unless its complete either ...

[kud0s69]

Nice post, must better than your previous one ;)

Now if you keep it updated, you will get many thanks over time for your hard work!

Keep up the good work :D

PS for what its worth, I have never watched any additional content on any DVD/BR that I have ever know. As long as I got the movie I am happy. So I don't care if I get a PV version for 13 bucks as opposed to buying new @ 32 :D

[ChopSuey]

I totally agree. I never paid more than $15 for any of the blu-rays in my collection. I refuse to pay $30 at BB or FS for blu-rays. I feel bad for people who buy a blu-ray for $32 when SIG has it on sale for $12.99. :(

[coldpower27]

22 CND is the most I have paid, and those are only for movies I really want...

[BlazinTrini]

The most I've paid was for the Iron Man with head statue

Thanks! ill keep you guys posted on what i find daily. I know no one here wants to buy any blu rays for over 20 bux!! or over 15 bux for that matter lol

[GSter]

Most of my bd's are concerts and planet earth.

i dont mind paying more than 20$ for concert BD's as i can watch them almost everyday unlike movies.

[eclipse11]

Good movie, but the transfer on this blu-ray is pretty bad. Better to wait for the special edition that will come out eventually.

It was really that bad of a transfer? :(

I was, too, debating on getting it on BR soon.

[jaydm]

updated! Shooter for 12.99

[ChopSuey]

Shooter is a decent movie with a good transfer (even though it uses an old codec - MPEG2), but the audio is not very good (no lossless audio, only Dolby Digital 5.1).

See reviews on this blu-ray here:

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/895/shooter.html
http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/movies.php?id=455&show=review

It's worth the $12.99 price, but I wouldn't pay anymore than that for this blu-ray in my opinion.

[PSiBeR]

Damn, got this on HDDVD already. Was hoping they would put up Wanted again or Iron Man, Kung Fu Panda, or Hancock...

My wallet keeps taking a hit everytime a new blu-ray deal comes up. I bought quite a few of these $12.99 deals, but the best one by far was when Dark Knight was $12.99. That was awesome. :)

Damn, got this on HDDVD already. Was hoping they would put up Wanted again or Iron Man, Kung Fu Panda, or Hancock...

Last time I was at SIG, I asked about how this deal works. They told me that their selection of the daily killer deal is based on if they have extra stock of a specific blu-ray. In the case of Wanted, Iron Man, and Kung Fu Panda, their stock is low, so chances are these won't go on sale anytime soon. Luckily, I picked up Kung Fu Panda for $11.49 when it was on sale at chcanada.com.

I missed that one, but i already have it. Got it for $14.99. Not as good as $12.99 but still decent.

Based on that info, looks like we problaby won't be getting Death Race or The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor as the daily blu-ray then ... oh well :(

[BlazinTrini]

Wanted was on sale earlier this week

[sloman]

If anyone has an extra Dark Knight or Wanted (sealed) BD that they picked up and willing to trade, I have extra sealed copies of Kung Fu Panda, Lakeview Terrace or Madagascar 2. Pick one BD. PM me.

[ghost80]

Wanted was on sale earlier this week

I think the poster was just hoping if it would go on sale again.

[jaydm]

updated..saw marley and me for $11.83 at walmart.ca?!?.. thats a low price for a movie that hasnt come out yet..if thats the price when it comes out..could be good for pm.

Question re SIG's weekend offerings -- are all deals available throughout the weekend? Or is it one on Friday only, another Saturday only, and the last on Sunday only?

Thanks.

[ChopSuey]

Here are the blu-ray reviews for Max Payne:

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/1968/maxpayne.html
http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/movies.php?id=3159&show=review

IMDB Rating: 5.5 / 10
Tomatometer (Rotten Tomatoes): 18% Critics / 43% Community

Overall, good PQ and excellent AQ, but the movie is subpar at best. Guess most of us will have to wait till Monday's sale.

[jaydm]

Updated... DVDs & next gen is having 10% off in IN stock selections..

Isn't Max Payne $12.99? It's showing in your post as $16.99. ;)

UPDATE: Nevermind, it is $16.99. Not a good deal at all IMO.

[AJD23]

Max Payne is $16.99. They get people by saying "Starting at: $12.99", but when you click to view the product page, it's $16.99. I think Australia was that price too.

Hmm... I just noticed that when I clicked on the blu-ray at SIG. I hope they don't end their $12.99 deals.

Yea guys I feel I got duped. I got there to pickup my held order on Max Payne, they gave me the movie and the receipt and told me $19.20 plz, I was like wtf?! Isnt it $12.99 and the sales guy said nahh, its $16.99 and th deal states "starting @ $12.99" which Watchmen is $12.99 called them right at 12 cuz I was afraid it would be hyped like Wanted was. Boy was i upset when they told me is $16.99 lol

[Paranoidandroid]

Is Watchmen still in stock at the Richmond Hill location?

Preemptive thanks OP. Not going to get anything out of this thread yet but I sure will in the future.

Updated! Sigs daily is THE BRAVE ONE. Any thoughts on this movie?..never saw it..Is it worth it?

this one is usually on sale under $15 in variety of places so i wouldn't rush it.

it is however a decent movie. i found it thoroughly entertaining and i enjoyed jodie foster busting up gangster a$$. it's a good "revenge" vigilante movie applicable to common day thugs/low-lives.

American Gangster for $12.99 at SIGs.. Not a bad deal at all.. but 300 for $19.99??...too expensive if you ask me.

Not a blu-ray, but they also have Enemy Territory: Quake Wars for $29.99 lol ... HOT!

The price for 300 is actually $12.99. You caught them just when they were updating their pages so they had the item up there for the daily deal but hadn't adjusted the price yet.

Guess they changed the price for 300.. it is now $12.99...may have been a pricing error the first time... Good price!

yup..thats why its more of a GTA deal.. not worth it if u get it shipped.

Oh here we go again...another one that cant keep his comments to himself..

[PSiBeR]

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Got that at EB Games for $10 (Used).

The one I got was brand new sealed for $10 as well @ EB. Got PS3 version, not sure about Xbox360

+1 thank god HDDVD's lol

[ReDmAn]

you got cheeseburgers?

[Uber12]

Shipping seems expensive at SiG 9.99 per item ?

Actually, it's 9.99 shipping per order, not per item. For instance, if you ordered two 12.99 Blu-rays it would cost $12.99+$12.99+$9.99=$35.97 + tax. Still a painful shipping charge, but might be worth it if you can find a few good deals.

They have a few decent titles for under 15 bux..so ya if you buy quite a few then it might actually be worth it in the end..or if u buy something else as well...

Sigs daily killer is Cloverfield...to me..waste of my one hour (went half way through, got a headache)

Check out DVDs & next gen gaming WEDNESDAY SALE! ..enjoy everyone.

[ghost80]

Too bad I bought Cloverfield for ~$20 when it first came out :( ... I think other than this the cheapest it has been was $17.99 at Best Buy. Luckily I got The Incredible Hulk at BB for $19.99 on initial release too (thanks to the website pricing screw-up).

[kud0s69]

Don't forget to thank the OP for all his hard work keeping this thread current! :)


Now we just need a Blu-Ray [WEST] deals thread!

[ChopSuey]

Cloverfield is a decent film and the blu-ray version has very good reviews, so I got my copy reserved at SIG. I already have The Hulk (paid $11.49 during the last CHCANADA sale).

Never watched Bangkok..heard it wasnt good..but for 12.99 is it worth it?.

[ChopSuey]

Never watched Bangkok..heard it wasnt good..but for 12.99 is it worth it?.

It's not good at all.. it's terrible. Only scored 9% on Rottentomatoes. Stay far away from this one unless you need an expensive coaster.

[PSiBeR]

Saw Bangkok Dangerous in the theatres and it was TERRIBLE! Stay far away from this movie. There was one scene that was just hilarious, the park scene when Nic Cage is walking with the girl.. haha for ppl who have seen it will agree. :lol:

It's hit or miss. Some will do it, and some won't. It depends on the cashier. I was able to PM a few blu-rays at BB in Downsview. That location might be your best bet.

Ya i tried to do it at best buy in warden and eglinton and the lady said that best buy doesnt price match with Sig anymore because they dont have the same return policy. Weird. Might still work in other bestbuys though..

Ah man. I would love Caspian at that price but $10 shipping to Ottawa seems like a little too much. Shipping cost from TO should be $2-3 at the most.

Thanks, I got the last Narnia at the Brampton store. I've been looking for this to go on sale for awhile now. Blockbuster had a PV copy for $34.99, which was ridiculous.

[sparrow_69]

Do I print out and go with blu to cash register for pm ? or do I go to customer service and ask there for price match ?

You can do either. IMO, best bet is to go straight to the cash register, more chance of getting the PM. Cashiers sometimes just adjust the price right there.

[balou911]

I wonder why no one has mentioned the quentin tarantino blurays at blockbuster?

Kill bill vol1&2, dusk till Dawn, reservoir dogs, Grindhouse Planet Terror & Death Proof are all $16.99

You can PM blurays from dvdsnextgengaming.com? I take it they're authorized dealers, correct? But how can you PM if it's only a "limited time-offer" (the bluray special is only between March 27-30)?

[sp14]

Has anyone had any luck PM'ing Narnia??

The Sig website is saying that the item is no longer available & since the deal states "starting at $12.99", I'm not sure if PM'ing is possible since there's no price or stock availability listed on the site. :confused:

[ghost80]

Reservoir Dogs is $9.99 at Wal*Mart and Future Shop. Planet Terror and Death Proof can be had at BBV for $11.99 if you have the $5 off Blu-ray coupons. Kill Bill Vol 1 has been cheaper at BBV (at $9.99) a few months ago ...

PM is always YMMV ;)

BB actually phoned, and dvdsnextgengaming.com claimed they are authorized dealer :D

If BB brings up "limited time-offer", you just reply back "isn't your own sale also time limited?"

[toyopl]

Just came back from FS at Winston/401 and got Jewel of the Nile and Romancing the Stone price matched to dvdsnextgengaming. They asked if they had a retail store and I said yeah in Ajax (?no clue if they do, remember seeing ajax as their contact info) and lady gave me attitude that it has to b in the area to b price matched, so I replied that future shop is not only in mississauga, that ajax probably has one too??? so she was runing around for 5min asking higher ppl I guess if she can pm and she finally said yes, one $13.99, other 14.49.

thx for the heads up

[PSiBeR]

I gave up on PMing SIG against the BB's and FS's in the Markham/Richmond Hill area, they always give me the excuse SIG is not an authorized retailer. Either I PM at the wrong times or other ppl have more luck. I'd rather call in SIG and tell them to hold a copy for me then waste gas driving around just save a few bucks.

[jaydm]

updated! Todays blu ray sale is FORBIDDEN KINGDOM for $12.99. Decent movie..might pick it up myself.

[240sxer]

I would def. check www.inetvideo.com for blurays, they've done a great job with HDDVD sales a few months ago and now they seem to have veru attractive deals on blurays.

[trixR4kids]

on the fence with forbidden kingdom, been hearing reviews that its more the martial arts is covered beneath all the effects.

but $12.99.... hmmm

yup...im gonna try to price match at bb again in stc.. ill let u guys know how it goes..

FS / BB do not have "limited time" offers as one of the exclusions on their price matching policy: after all, almost ALL sales run for a specific time (like the flyer will say "prices in effect April 4th to April 11th" or something) so to deny based on a sale that is only 3 days in duration is absolute poppycock: ask to speak to the store manager, and if they deny you, get the manager's name and employee number so you can call head office.

FS / BB will deny you (and their price match policy supports this) if the deal is "first 50 customers only" or "first 10 customers only" or "supplies are limited" stated right on the competitor's ad.

But do not stand for "limited number of days" as a reason for them to deny the PM.

Very True!

But when i tried they told me that Sig's return policy is not the same as theirs. They said Sig gives more than 30 days to return items as BB/FS only gives 30 days. So therefore PMing cant be done??..is this true or was she just giving me bs?

[ghost80]

I was on the fence about The Forbidden Kingdom as well, back when it was $19.99 but decided to get it at this price. PM'd successfully .. I'm 5 for 5 now!

[ghost80]

Where did you pm if u dont mind me asking?.. i have not been successful in my last two attempts..

FS .. it's always YMMV though .. if FS fails, try BB, and vice-versa. Just depends on who you get. Sometimes ask an associate first, sometimes go straight to cash. Note this though, people: BB downtown are hiding stock of this one, it seems ... 5 in stock but they can't find it and don't bother trying.

[240sxer]

Btw, like I was saying on the other thread, for those looking for deals on bluray, make sure u sign up to the inetvideo news letter, they usually sell off hours after they send out the email on hot deals.

Wow..i just checked that..and you're right its gone up..all in one day. Good thing i got it yesterday..Still a good price nonetheless..these sell at bestbuy for 54.99

Updated..there will be blood for $12.99..

*sigh* still waiting for a real good movie that i want for $12.99..

[ghost80]

I entertained the thought of PM'ing TWBB for a minute, but thought better of it. Still haven't watched my BD of No Country for Old Men (the other Oscar contender for Best Picture). Plus, don't want to push my luck with PM'ing unless it's for a movie I'm really into.

[ChopSuey]

There Will Be Blood is an excellent film and the blu-ray transfer is great. This movie is a steal at $12.99. Movie has an 8.3 rating on IMDB (#122 of top 250 of all time) and 91% on Rottentomatoes.

[ghost80]

Interesting ... TWBB is no longer available. The actual product page is gone, the Daily Blu-ray page is empty, and it is gone from the Daily Killer page as well. Wonder what happened ...

Hancock and Waterhorse for $12.99 each and Punisher: War Zone for $16.99. I think a pretty hot deal.

[winstona]

Given that Punisher is a recently released title, this is a pretty good deal even at $16.99.

[Iggynatz]

Not a Bluray, but I just PMed the Daily Killer deal for games at FS. Motorstorm Pacific Rift for $26, not too shabby. I'm liking these deals, I'll be checking this thread daily.

I'm a huge fan of it but I can see why many people hated it. It's pretty pretentious and the movie thinks it is a lot smarter than it is. Still it is visually stunning and should look great on hi def. Honestly the visuals will hold up for a very very long time because of the technique they used (very little CG). I'm really considering PM-ing this. Any advice on how that'd go? Is Oshawa too far from Richmond Hill to try and price match?

It's a really good Western movie. It's very underrated, unfortunately. When you have two great actors Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, then you know the movie won't suck. I highly recommend it.:cheesygri

Just picked up my copy from SIG and there inside there is an $8 coupon towards tickets to Crank 2 High Voltage! Good for most theatres in Canada (Cineplex, etc.).

Combined with the really solid Blu-Ray reviews for the original makes this deal extra HOT! :lol:

has anyone been to the pickering flea market lately? the selection there is quite good so i'm planning to go there this weekend, but i'm only really looking for the following movies specifically:

- the simpsons movie
- afro samurai resurrection
- wanted

have any of you seen these there recently? i'd rather not drive all the way there to not even find one of them (unless i see something that i've forgotten about)...

[skwan]

looks like SIG updated their daily killer early due to appreciation for customers:

http://www.sigelectronics.com/Daily-Killer

007: Quantum of Solace = $16.99
Indiana Jones-Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull= $12.99
Batman Begins = $12.99
The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants 2 = $12.99

Why appreciation, it says:

30 pcs of Earth Sold Out in 1 hour! We are launching our Early Weekend Blu-ray Special to honor our customer.
I have 1 of the 30 pieces for Earth: The Biography:cheesygri

Wonder if they'll have a special for Planet Earth, even if it'll be $39.99, I'd still buy it.

how was the pickering flea market for blu-rays? i usually go to the flea market once every 3 months or so.. but i usually go there for collectibles and stuff like that (wrestling stuff) and didnt bother to look for cheap blu-rays as the one person i saw that was selling blu-rays was selling them mad expensive

[jaydm]

Updated... Michael Clayton for $12.99

I was @ pickering flea market again on saturday for a very brief time. I was in the area so i thought id check to see if that stand has anymore $10 deals. Its still the same, dan in real life for 10 bux, hostel for 8 bux, oceans 13 for 10 bux, license to wed for 10 bux.

They have lots of other titles for 19.99 and new releases for 24.99. Also box sets were pretty cheap. well, cheaper than retail.

the selection is quite large...i would definitely recommend checking it out if you're looking for something...most movies are $20 though, so i'm not sure if this is your magic price point for blu-rays or if you'd rather look for better deals (ex. sig's daily killer)...

its recommended, although there are no high def extras

is there a lot of action in this film?

[PSiBeR]

Picked up the Quantum of Solace at SIG's great deal for $16.99 IMO. Also got the Incase notebook bag for my Netbook. Its alot bigger then I thought. Nevertheless $9.99 for the bag is a frigg'n great deal!

Now just waiting for Iron Man and KFP.

Anyone check out FMP and Pmall recently. I really wonder if they're Blu-Rays are real or used from BBV? I'm tempted to crack open the cases to see what heck is in them! lol

Probably find some RiData or Prodata DVDR inside haha

Golden Compass was $11.99 recently at BBV if you had a $5 off coupon. I haven't seen it yet but I have seen 27 Dresses. That one is definitely not worth $16.99 (let alone my mistype of $12.99 earlier)

Golden Compass was even lower at BBV previously, as it was their $9.99 blu-ray of the month a while ago.

Question about the SIG daily deals, as I've only partaken once and picked up the item that afternoon: do you have to go in that same day if you bought online for in-store pickup? I know they don't charge your CC until you show up so they're within their rights to back out, but do they actually set aside your item (especially the quick-to-sell blu-rays) and honour the price if you go in a day or two later?

Never heard of Youth without youth.. hmmmm

war wasnt good at all despite the hype following the two actors.

nth good today it seems :(

The only one I was interested in this week was The Bank Job but now its looking like it might be a good thing I didn't order it. Driving all that way would kind of suck just for one title.

Since when did EB Games start selling blu-ray movies?!?!? I've been to at least 3 of them and they don't sell them.

These movies are terrible (poor PQ and AQ). They were released in 2006 on blu-ray. I would avoid these.

They don't have many - usually only a handful of titles. If you don't see them in a bin at the front or back of the store they may be with the PS3 titles.

I finally found them at my local EB, but the prices were insane (between $29.99 to $39.99). How did you get yours for $9.89??? Which location was this at?

I've seen them throughout the GTA (Toronto). I saw a few titles in the range you mentioned but the ones I listed above are in the system for $9.89 (they were stickered that way in Ajax/Pickering/Toronto).

So you're saying there's a good chance that even if the sticker says $29.99, it might be $9.89??? Hmmm.. I might have to go back if that's the case.

hmmm.. i might have to check this out myself too.

Just got back from BBV..and they had some titles go down in the previously viewed section. From what i remember on the top of my head:

National Treasure 2 - $12.99
Spiderwick Chronicles - $12.99
21 - $12.99
The Mummy 3 (Emperors tomb) - $12.99
DrillBit Taylor - $9.99


They had alot of others ones..i shouldve taken note but i was in a rush..just for my lunch break. This was in Don mills and lawrence bbv.

Anyone know if you can use that $5 off a bluray coupon from BBV? I don't recall it saying anything about it having to be new but I don't remember.

[ChopSuey]

I went back to EBGames and confirmed that the following blu-rays are $9.89:

Superbad
Spiderman 3
Hitch
Tears of the Sun
Hostel
Gridiron Gang
Click

Disregard what the sticker might say on the box, it should scan as $9.89.

Superbad is a super hot deal in my opinion. The only problem (as shezbot mentions in a previous post) that some EB locations do gut their blu-rays.

OP, might be a good idea to add this to the frontpage. Thanks shezbot for mentioning this deal. :)

Welcome to the blu ray family. Lol. My top 5 must have to begin with

Not in particular order

Transformers
The hulk (2008)
IronMan
Batman: Dark Knight
Planet Earth - if you just wanna be amazed of TRUE HD quality

Planet Earth sells in Amazon Uk for 48 bux canadian including taxes and shipping. Some people got charged with duty taxes..not me i put as a gift.

Dark knight will be on sale from time to time at SIGS for $12.99 but might be awhile again or just pick one up at BBV for $19.99

Transformers, the hulk and Ironman are hard to find a deal in..again BBV if you get lucky..

good luck and enjoy!

You might not want to know this ;) ... but the Blu-ray bundle containing Planet Earth and Earth The Biography was going for $37 at Future Shop last week or so.

Updated:

Lord of War
The Reaping

$12.99 each.

Any comments on these?

Stay far away from both of these titles. The Reaping has a fairly bad transfer and Lord of War came out on blu-ray in 2006 and has no special features at all. The transfer is okay for Lord of War, but it can be a lot better. Lord of War should be re-released on blu-ray soon with a better transfer and bonus features.

NP! I have the first one too and needed to get the second one to complete.

[ChopSuey]

Updated! Might pick up Rambo..not bad at this price. Unless someone says otherwise...

The review on Hidefdigest is not very good. The review on blu-ray.com is a lot better. This is a very good movie and well worth $12.99. The PQ and AQ is excellent and there are lots of bonus features. I'll be picking this one up. :)

[winstona]

+10 on Rambo...Pick it up and you won't regret, especially at this price!

[ChopSuey]

Wow...Rambo sold out. Glad I got my order in just in time.

[Sakaban]

SIG Daily Update: "Traitor" and "Troy" $12.99/each.

[jaydm]

Updated...

Is traitor any good? Never seen the movie.

[shezbot]

Also cheap at SIG:

$12.99
Wicker Man
Bulletproof Monk
American Psycho
Waiting
Shall we Dance

[Kasshern]

I didn't like the Traitor at all. I thought the story was very bland. IMO it doesn't matter if it's high def., the movie will still be garbage. I do not recommend it at all.

[kud0s69]

OP you should add the chcanada stuff. I know it's not stuff you can go pick up, but the prices on some of that stuff is pretty dang good. Quantum of Solace for 13.99 etc.

SIG Daily Update - The blu-ray killers are now for a week. May 8th - May 15th. However the two movies listed are still the previous days ones (Traitor, Troy). Maybe they're still updating it....

Bunch of titles added which in the past were $12.99 are now $14.99 to $24.99 .. unless they are still updating this is one BAD Customer Appreciation Sale!

** Updated now starting @ $12.99 but only four titles and still nothing worth it.

I mentioned that site too before but OP doesnt think they are worth it :( I have always ordered from them and ship fast and cheap. Everyone has their own opinion though .. OP is still doing a good job keeping the thread updated :)

Finally updated with a bunch for $12.99 and some for $14.99 and $16.99.

[jaydm]

UPDATED..not bad ..some of the titles..but most are repeats

[winstona]

Slumdog Millionaire for $16.99 is hot!

[rsarwar]

Not sure if anyone noticed but:

FREE SHIPPING on all blu-ray Movies.
(Minimum 3 titles)

Makes this weeks deal even hotter!!! BUT in their Blu Ray section not all of the Weekly Deal BRs are listed with the discounted price so I am not 100% sure.

[ur2nvme]

These are some really good prices on blu-rays @ SIG. I like the fact they have added free shipping if you buy 3 or more.

[PSiBeR]

Looks pretty good even though its a repeat sales of previous weeks. Good for ppl who want to catch up on some missed deals..

Dam, they didn't put up Wanted.. I missed out on that one >:(

Has anybody seen "Across the Universe" and "Moulin Rouge" for cheap?

Cheapest ive seen Across the Universe is $22.50 at Sigs. You can also check bbv, might be in the previously viewed section for cheaper. And Moulin rouge, i dont think its out on blu ray yet.

[blahblehblah]

CHCANADA.COM has The Reader and The Wrestler for $13.99 each, which I think is HOT. :)

I looking for cheap pixar blu-rays has anyone had any luck?

[Scott Pilgrim]

How long does it take a movie to hit the shelves as a previously viewed at Blockbuster? I've been waiting for a sub $20 copy of Benjamin Button. Hopefully they keep the Criterion set intact...

[danman227460]

How long does it take a movie to hit the shelves as a previously viewed at Blockbuster? I've been waiting for a sub $20 copy of Benjamin Button. Hopefully they keep the Criterion set intact...

Usually a week or so. Once new releases hit, they remove the old ones unless its a very popular title. I have seen Taken on shelves already. I haven't seen any movie rental places pull anything but new releases. They never seem to pull the older titles. Otherwise its a good place to pick up Transformers, Pixar movies and any other movies.

I've seen Benjamin Button at both Roger's and Blockbuster PV'd already (despite Blockbuster's flyer claiming June 29th as the PV pull date for Button)... so go get it!

[gottagetta]

Hmm, I wouldn't mind picking up Taken and something else for $30. That was a great movie.

[jaydm]

Taken will go very fast..get it while you have the chance. Now if you can get Taken and Button for 2 for 30 that would be a wicked deal.

[BinaryJay]

Hmm, I wouldn't mind picking up Taken and something else for $30. That was a great movie.

Taken was a "just ok" movie in my book. I haven't looked it up but if the video/audio transfer is excellent it might be worth adding to a library.

[pauldryan]

Taken was a great movie. Too bad I lost count of the dead bodies piling up at around thirty!! :D

[TheQuestion]

I just went to BBV and Rogers in Markham area

Rogers has a meager selection but price-wise it's better. They have taken and Benjamin buttons, both for $21.99 and it's 30% off so it's like 13-14$ plus tax?

BBV has a huge selection and they're all 2 for 30$ so it roughly ends up being the same price with new PPV at Rogers

[dbdudley]

Does Rogers have both discs for Button? has anyone picked it up there?

[Scott Pilgrim]

I was at the Blockbuster in Markham at McCowan and Hwy 7. Had a few copies of The Wrestler, Taken and Slumdog Millionaire. No Benjamin Button though so I didn't pull the trigger on anything. Like the poster above said, huge selection, just not the one I wanted :( . Maybe I'll head over to Rogers.

[PhubiO]

Thank you OP! Managed to pick up Taken and Dark Knight, location at rathburn and tomken.

30% off $21.99 would be more than $15+tax. If its available at BBV, I'd buy it there.

[dbdudley]

To answer my own question, yes, at least at the Rogers in my area (Ottawa unfortunately for the most likely readers of this thread), you do get the two discs and it's only $15.39 with the 30% off promotion.

If you can't find a second Blu Ray you want, it's only a $0.39 difference.

maybe ill go check this out tonite... they probably be all gone by then...but id get the wrestler and slumdog

[jaydm]

What about the slip cover and pamphlet? (It's a Criterion release so I care a bit more about it being complete :) )

+1.. i know bbv doesnt give out the slip covers (if it does come with it), so im wondering if rogers gives it out.

[mdc3000]

I've seen Taken and Underworld 3 but NOT at the same store, so I guess I'll have to wait until that happens to get 2/$30! :(

[kmchow]

Narnia: Prince Caspian $15.99
Nim's Island $9.99
Vantage Point $9.99

Resident Evil: Extinction $15.99

Fair enough

However, doesn't BBV take away the extra disc if it's a 2 disc? I stopped by Rogers on the way home after BBV and picked up Benjamin Buttons 2 disc criterion

[nave]

BBV takes out the second disk if its the digital copy. They dont rent it with the digital copies in them so they shouldnt be previewed like that.

[Scott Pilgrim]

How much was Benjamin Button at Rogers anyway?

[TheQuestion]

Benjamin buttons was 221.99$ at Rogers

It includes both discs: the movies and the extras

Maybe check the posts within three or four of the last one? ;)

[shannn]

Has anyone seen the Shawshank redemption anywhere in the GTA? Been looking for a copy forever

[mdc3000]

You won't find most catalogue titles like A Bug's Life or Shawshank Redemption at Roger's - they don't stock them for rent and if they DO stock them, they only get 1 copy that they end up keeping. There is a remote chance you might stumble across one at a Blockbuster if someone has traded it in, but outside of that, you won't find those kinds of titles used at a video store... The Beat Goes On or Deja Vu Disc is probably a better bet.

[jaydm]

Has anyone seen the Shawshank redemption anywhere in the GTA? Been looking for a copy forever

Ive been looking for this as well. Luckily i found someone selling on craigslist for 15 bux! what a steal. Its the 'book' edition and i must say the quality is amazing.

[ReDmAn]

what's so good about the wrestler? i was waiting for something good to happen and nothing did. the best part was when he did booger sugar and then he did that hooker in the washroom

[Talamasca]

I got Taken and Pineapple Express at Blockbuster and then got Benjamin Button (both discs) and Quarantine at Rogers.

Woodbridge BB claims that Head Office is telling them not to PM SiG b/c it is questionable whether they get their inventory through legitimate means. I had to get back to the office, so I didn't argue it, he matched but did not beat it by 10%. Just thought I would pass that along.

Is Step Brothers a good movie? is it worth it for $15?

I just came across Kickboxer on Amazon.ca and they have dropped the price to $13.95 CDN. Release date is next week the 16th. Im not sure how much shipping is (I already ordered from dvdsnextgengaming) . This was a good movie for me back in the day..

I didn't realize these coupons were from Blockbuster, does anyone know if they work at any store? I've read the fine print and it's from the studio. Anyone try it yet?

Yes, right you are. They are from Sony and not any store. I will try these out at a store next week when Ghostbusters hit.

So this deal isn't bad but as long as you get the coupons. Some deals to be had.

[joeags]

I think you misunderstood the question a bit. He's not asking about the cover art and the blue case. There's a box slip cover that comes with Curious Case..., as well as a pamphlet inside the case. I have never seen an item at BBV that has the slip cover, and the copy I picked up today did not. Also, I've seen some movies have the pamphlets inside, but most of those are just advertisements, not an actual readable insert. My copy did not have the pamphlet. If you want to be a completest, you'll want to buy a retail copy (used or new), and not buy this secondhand. Myself, I didn't mind the discount, since I don't see many Criterion releases drop below the $20 mark, and this is a pretty darn new release.

What about the slip cover and pamphlet? (It's a Criterion release so I care a bit more about it being complete )
-->You mean the case and the Criterion Collection cover? Yes.

--->+1.. i know bbv doesnt give out the slip covers (if it does come with it), so im wondering if rogers gives it out.
BBV always gives me the slip cover... NEVER had this problem.

[jaydm]

Oh you mean the cardboard slip cover? Sorry to mislead you all. I didn't get a cover at Rogers and I have never gotten one at BBV. Unintentional misinformation there.

Just hit up www.bluray.com or www.highdefdigest.com.

Sites have review for both movies. Ghostbusters looks like a good transfer for its age, nothing eye catching but definitely an upgrade over DVD.

EOutletCanada has Superbad for 19.99. Lowest I have seen it.

Wanted to get Fugitive, wife is a big Harrison Ford fan. But according to the reviews at AVS forums, The Fugitive is on the COAL tier..... not much of an improvement, if any, over the DVD

The covert art on their site suggests it's the original 1968 version.

Isn't the 2001 one on sale right now at Best Buy for $9.99? In which case you'd be way better off buying it there for cost/convenience/refundability.

I picked up my copy for $9.99 @ EBGames. You bring the case to front cash, but the guy will open up one of his drawers and bring out a small plastic containing the movie and the booklet and will stick it into the case.

They tell me it is new. But when I checked my discs they all work fine and no scratches whatsoever. So I assume it is new.

They had it at the new walmart at markham and steeles. They had a bunch left..wont last long though..

[jaydm]

Just a heads up..My friend went to the same walmart i went to to get those 2 for 20 blu rays and apparently they took off the stickers and prices and its scanning at regular cost.. only a few movies.. maybe they figured out they made a mistake. but i have receipt and sticker still on mine for proof if anyone is gonna buy.

Thanks jaydm. Went this afternoon and picked up a copy when it was still stickered at 2 for $20 and got it overriden for $10 (since it was scanning at $23.83).

When did your friend go to that Wal*Mart? I guess they must have removed the stickers later on in the afternoon? It's odd though, since I was under the impression that they come stickered from the warehouse, so I figured they just hadn't updated their system with the $10 price yet.

Hey No problem! Glad someone else got to benefit from it..im sure not alot of walmarts were carrying these titles at these prices.

crap are you serious? i searched through all the compartments in that discount blu-ray area, and there were barely any 2 for $20 titles to begin with, and definitely no JCVD. they only had one JCVD left in the glass case, stickered at $23.xx.

i didn't get to the STC WM till 9pm though, so maybe the stock ran out by that time?

gonna call around some WM's tonight and see if they have any to pick up.

i want JCVD badly!

[chaingunsofdoom]

No JCVD to be found at any of the WMs around here.

Only title I grabbed was a PM'd Wall Street at FS for $8.50.

Im only guessing this price error happened in Markham and Steeles Walmart. I went Morningside and 401 Walmart and they didnt have it there either. If you have time, i say swing by the Markham and Steeles WM and try your luck there. Now im regretting not getting the other titles i wanted for 2 for 20. I hope they are not gone :(

ah thanks for the clarification jaydm. i thought i read earlier that you found yours at the Markham/Steeles WM, but got confused when i thought you said you also saw it at the STC location.

will try to check it out tonight then.

picked up Behind Enemy Lines for $10 last night, so at least it wasn't a completely lost cause.

CHCANADA is not really a club since there are no membership fees right now. And you don't have to buy anything unlike the regular Columbia House. I've been orderng a lot of new blu-rays that were on sale for $13.99 from them and I have no complaints.

[blahblehblah]

At first i was skeptical as well when signing up, but not anymore. Generally i wait around 1-2 weeks for them to ship my order and they always have fairly new movies priced at $13.99. Plus they have a free shipping promo now to even sweeten the deal so it came up to $13.99 + tax only.. thats even better than the 2 for $30 rogers deal for those that found copies with the 2 discs!

you still have to commit to buying 2 movies a year right? not concerned about that obviously, but any more obligations aside from that one?

[JOEBRONIE77]

Nope that's the only obligation. It's good for people starting up new collections, as at the beginning of the month, they pretty much role over the slate with around 15 or so different titles priced at $13.99.

[Alienxx45]

yup mine scanned at that price too but it had a 2 for 20 sticker.. they had to honor it ofcourse. Some people got lucky and got it for 10 bux too..

[ghost80]

yup mine scanned at that price too but it had a 2 for 20 sticker.. they had to honor it ofcourse. Some people got lucky and got it for 10 bux too..

Yeah, if you were forced to buy another movie marked 2 for $20 (that you didn't actually want) to get JCVD at that price, I'd take the other movie back for a refund, as anything marked 2 for $xx should be $xx/2 on it's own.

[TH3R]

i called a bunch of stores last night and none of them had it in stock, aside from STC, but marked at $23.xx in the glass shelves.

the guy at the Kennedy/Sheppard WM told me they get new shipments in on Tuesdays, and said call or check back then (that would be today).

but... my guess is that these new shipments won't be stickered at 2 for $20. who knows.

might try one more time tonight. wasting more time than it's worth.

Ya but the receipt will show how much you paid for..mine shows 10 bux each.. and plus there were tons i wanted for that price. i had to stop myself from buying them all :razz:

for sure. if or whenever i make it to WM, i'll update with a list

[danman227460]

Picked up Spaceballs for 22.99. It comes with a $10 movie cash. So the movie came out to 12.99 if you subtract the cost of the movie cash. Pretty good deal.

I checked HMV and they had Spaceballs priced at 26.99. If you can get them to qualify it, it becomes cheaper at 19.99

Everything at Walmart that is priced at, "2 for $X" can be purchased individually for half (i.e. 2/$10 you can buy one for $5). I love that about them.

Hey thanks for this info..might grab a title at bb.

Updated. Walmart has the 2 for 20 on their flyers including jcvd.

[Sakaban]

do you know if the bluray 2 for 20 in walmart i can just buy 1 for 10?

[actyper]

Yes you can buy just 1 for $10

[danman227460]

yep. Each movie scans it at 10. Picked up JCVD and WAR.

[Sakaban]

thanks guys just want to confirm.. knew the walmart systems arent smart enough to detect the discount when 2 blurays are scanned only

[jaydm]

thanks guys just want to confirm.. knew the walmart systems arent smart enough to detect the discount when 2 blurays are scanned only

ya thats true..they should just advertise all blu rays for ten bux ..but i guess 2 for 20 sounds more appealing. Consumers will think they have to buy two to get that deal so it works out better for WM i guess.

[ghost80]

ya thats true..they should just advertise all blu rays for ten bux ..but i guess 2 for 20 sounds more deceiving

For all you PS3 owners, if you buy 2 blu rays, I believe at Best Buy, you get a free Blu Ray Remote. Flyer came in the newspaper.

[MrCheap]

I was at the walmart at Morningside and 401 yesterday and their HD titles are VERY limited........(maybe 4 titles?) and their Blu Ray's aren't much better.

I also want to confirm that Total Recall in Blu Ray sucks a$$. It is HORRIBLE. I'm going to be trading it in at BB in a few minutes because they have a $10.00 min trade in...(so I'll break even).

[blahblehblah]

For all you PS3 owners, if you buy 2 blu rays, I believe at Best Buy, you get a free Blu Ray Remote. Flyer came in the newspaper.

I took a look at their online flyer and couldn't find the part where they said free blu-ray remote for buying 2 blu rays. Could you please provide a link cause this deal will be good if the $9.99 blu-rays qualified lol

For the 2 for $20 blu-rays, i called the Bloor and Dufferin Wallmart and the rep there mentioned no dice on it... said they did not receive any notice on it. Is this a YMMV deal? I hope not...

As for the 2 for 20..i mean its advertised on the flyer..so i dont see why it would be a problem..call the rep back and tell her to look at their flyer! lol

Ah cool... hmmm... i will take a look at the future shop flyer and see what qualifies then :) Edit: Checked and it was cold.. had only 17 blu-rays to select from.

I ended up calling another wall-mart and the rep there was a bit more knowledgeable and confirmed that the sale was on. The reason i call beforehand to confirm is i don't want to spend 20 minutes travelling to the store to find there is no stock of the movies i want to buy. I gotta get this JCVD for $10, thats a super hot price :D

[ReDmAn]

5 star thread a++ i voted 1 star by accident mods please change my 1 star to 6

[zabuza]

Awesome, thanks for the post. I've been wanting to get Lord of War for the longest time now, and JCVD was a good time at the TIFF.

I just hope I can find 'em!

[Dinger_dude]

Questions about JCVD:

How good is this film? Is this Van Damme's greatest work to date? And are most of the dialogue scenes spoken in French?

[Wuwuwu]

It's a really good film especially on the storytelling front.

[TH3R]

picked up the last copy of JCVD at the Bathurst/Centre St WM fyi. Stickered at $23.83, but rang in at $10. They've got like no stock of blu-rays at that WM.

not sure if they're getting more in stock. The STC WM told me they were replenishing last Tuesday, so not sure if that was across the GTA, or STC specific.

can't wait to see Jean-Claude in action again!

P.S. for those looking for some snacking options for the movie, Doritos were $2 a bag! Mmm... zesty cheese :D

[TT shopper]

JCVD, is it really worth getting a BR version?

Thanks OP for the update, might drop by the WM on my way home!

[shezbot]

Finally got my copy of JCVD! WOOHOO!

[danman227460]

About JCVD.

This isn't an action movie in the tradition JCVD style. There are some scenes but its more about his life and how he ended up here. There are 5 mins in the movie that is really soul searching. It gives us a glimpse into his life and how his acting skills have been overlooked for his brawn.

[TH3R]

Hey glad you finally got it! :cheesygri

thanks man!! seriously... took me a little while to track down at the $10 price, but well worth it.

and so glad i didn't buy the UK version back when i was doing the 3 for 2 deal on amazon.co.uk!!

and yeah, i know this movie isn't at all like the typical JCVD, jump-splits, flying-roundhouse-kicks-to-the-face, in-slow-motion type movie.

man i wonder if WM will have more of these $10 blu ray deals down the road. certainly hope so!

[zabuza]

Picked up JCVD yesterday at the Markville location. No more copies of Lord of War left, but I'll check the Agincourt location later this afternoon. Are these supposed to be stickered, because none were, and I'm curious what other titles fall under the "and more" category. The flyer ad was pretty clear on which titles were being offered 2/$20, and didn't mention any additional releases. For a second, I thought Rocknrolla was part of it, but that was for the DVD. Oh well, patience... when/if Blu-Ray dies out I'll capitalize on the fire sale. :twisted:

[kleptodathief]

i dont even OWN 1 brd lol...i find .mkv files much more convenient, its such a hassle to put in/take out discs! >:(

is the TDK br cheap now? i rmember back on boxing day it was like 18bux

[jaydm]

Update!! Went back to Walmart On markham and steeles. No more JCVD ofcourse. But i saw a few more titles that might be worth getting

$14.83

Pursuit of Happiness
6th Day
Swat
Into the Blue
Donnie Brasco
Few Good Men
Pink Panther

[jaydm]

While I was in line at WM to purchase JCVD I noticed Father's Day Greeting cards that had a "free" DVD inside (smaller sized versions). The card was $3.99 but it had "Kickboxer" as the free DVD inside!

[TH3R]

just noticed Black Hawk Down wasn't included in the $14.xx list.

saw this at the Bathurst and Center St WM last week when I picked up JCVD.

One of the best war movies imo. Go Hoot!

[trackercowe]

Has anyone went to Future Shop for the Public Enemies movie cash deal? I was at Future Shop today and they had a sign up saying you had to buy two selected movies, not one. It makes no mention of that in the flyer, but I didn't really want to ask about it. Anyone else get this deal yet?

I did pick up JCVD, and 4 other blu rays for $10 or less at South Common. Many different movies at $10 there, although I think I got the last copy of JCVD.

[zeze]

Gonna pick up Ultimate Avengers for $9.xx at Wal-Mart just for the heck of it. Been wanting to watch that movie for a long time and this price is just right.:)

[mdc3000]

I was going to buy King Kong on BD because of the movie cash but then in store they said I had to buy TWO movies - so I said **** it and bought none.

[danman227460]

Yep. Seems like there is an error in the ads and in store, it is actually buy 2. It sucks. You could bring the ad and as long as they didn't post a correction you can argue with them.

What makes it even more idiotic is that it includes selected DVD's that are $9.99... so you can buy $20 worth of DVD's and get the movie cash, but you need to buy at least $40 worth of blu-ray to get it. FAIL.

[ChopSuey]

Fargo and The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly are on sale at Future Shop for $14.99 each. Both are excellent movies. Links are below:

Tropic Thunder was part of a deal way back (the week before they first brought out Quantum of Solace I believe) I missed out on that one.

Tropic Thunder was part of a deal way back (the week before they first brought out Quantum of Solace I believe) I missed out on that one.

I don't think there is much to worry then.. it appears sig is recycling their daily killers so tropic thunder will most likely show up again as it is not OOS from their stockpile list. I was actually hoping they will bring back bolt again on their list but it appears that for disney/pixar movies, once its gone.. its gone :(

They had BOLT as a daily killer??

ever since best buy stopped price matching sigs daily killers ..the deals kinda sucked for me as SIG is too far for me to go to for a movie..

[TH3R]

crap... i didn't realize the north american JCVD version doesn't have lossless audio.

I knew it was missing most of the bonus features found in the UK version, but man.. didn't realize they skipped out on the HD audio too.

amazon.co.uk has JCVD for 9.98 GBP... wonder if it's worth paying double for the lossless audio and bonus features...???

lossless audio = audio that isn't losted when it is converted from one format ot another.

[danman227460]

you can check out eoutlet for tropic thunder, its 14.99. Anyone have success in getting fs or bb to pm eoutlet?

No, not bolt. They had bolt listed at one point for like $24 which was still better than retail price at $34. Disney movies generally don't go on large discount sales sadly, i guess their BD's are just that good.

Best buy stopped PMing sigs daily killers? I have not had that problem thus far, which BB do you venture to?

[danman227460]

sweet. Gonna have a field day trying to pm all three resident movies at FS.

[need2save]

Tropic Thunder was part of a deal way back (the week before they first brought out Quantum of Solace I believe) I missed out on that one.

Yeah, I picked it up that week for $16.99 (I believe they also had Transporter 3 for that price that day, but unlike TT it's been back at that price since). Annoyingly, I also picked up QoS around the same time for $19.99, only to see it come back a few days later for $16.99 as a Daily Killer weekend special! And then CHCanada.com had it for $13.99 a few weeks later, *groan*.

Speaking of CHCanada, are we not including their deals in this thread or is that other, dedicated CHCanada thread still active somewhere? They have the best weekly deals IMO, namely their $13.99 specials. Picked up Marley & Me, Day The Earth Stood Still, Yes Man, Reader and other new releases for that price in the past month. This week's new $13.99 title is TAKEN.

Well ive been in mostly Scarborough locations. Warden and Eglinton was the first time they denied it for me. Manager came out and said Sig is not an authorized retailer. Then tried Scarborough Town Center location, and apparently they dont do it there either.

The live-action Disney stuff -- HSM3, BH Chihuahua, Prince Caspian, Space Buddies -- does show up in the Daily Killer specials regularly. I'm half-expecting to see Bedtime Stories there one day (maybe not too soon, as it is pretty new). But good luck finding the Pixar blu-rays for $12.99 to $16.99 anywhere! ;)

Anyone looking for Tropic Thunder should definitely check their local Blockbuster - they have TONS of PV'd copies at all the locations I've seen and right now PV'd discs are 2 for $30.

[_RFDealt_]

6 copies of JCVD at the new Woodbridge Walmart (HWY 27/Langstaff). In a middle row, yellow boxes marked $10 with a lot of dvd's (near the desk furniture). One side has only blu rays, in the bottom left is a bunch of copies of some crappy Jason Statham movie "In the name of the king", behind those are 5-6 copies of JCVD.

[iamlilc]

Lots of JCVD and most of the other 2 for 10 at Lincoln Heights location in Ottawa. I didn't see Lord of War or War, but they did have a few Shawshank Redemptions and most of the 2 packs.

If you are ever downtown, i normally just go to the bay and dundas location to PM against sig. Never had a problem, the only thing they do with daily killers is they sometimes check the website for quantity but generally sig never runs out within the day

Yeah it appears the crappier movies go on discount but the good stuff never does (which is normal). Im still trying to find a good deal on bolt and a bug's life.... sadly i already watched up or i would have bought bugs life with the coupon for the movie...

Whoa - Shawshank Blu-Ray is $10? Wally-Mart really needs to do a better job of stickering...

When i went to walmart last friday shawshank was not part of the pile.. perhaps someone just dumped it in the bin but does not ring up as part of the 2 for $20... if it does.. its a sweet deal for sure

[iamlilc]

Whoa - Shawshank Blu-Ray is $10? Wally-Mart really needs to do a better job of stickering...

Sorry, no it's not part of the $10 stuff. It's $16.83 which is still pretty good. I just mentioned it, cuz it's been sold out in a few places. Sorry, I worded it wrong.

Hmmm... still crappy selection from sig again imo... both movies were ok but not to the point of me worth spending for it :(

Im gonna give BB a shot today and try and get a PM from e-outlet canada. They have some good titles there like Tropic thunder, Afro Samurai Ressurection for $14.99 and Mad Men for like $20. I also saw a futurama one there for $0 which must be a typo but if you add it in your cart, the value still remains at $0... anyone brave enough to give that one a shot? hehe :cheesygri

[danman227460]

Good luck. I tried getting them to PM Eoutlet but they gave me the usual we don't PM liquidation, outlets. Didn't bother arguing.

Im gonna give BB a shot today and try and get a PM from e-outlet canada. They have some good titles there like Tropic thunder, Afro Samurai Ressurection for $14.99 and Mad Men for like $20. I also saw a futurama one there for $0 which must be a typo but if you add it in your cart, the value still remains at $0... anyone brave enough to give that one a shot? hehe :cheesygri

[_RFDealt_]

Couldn't find Truman Show. Shawshank for 16 is a great price seeing as how I picked it up from Walmart for 27 a month ago.

If you're ever around scarborough, last time i went i saw a bunch at markham and steeles. $14.83. picked one up myself. Along with Coach Carter.

[blahblehblah]

Good luck. I tried getting them to PM Eoutlet but they gave me the usual we don't PM liquidation, outlets. Didn't bother arguing.

Im not in a mood to argue with CSRs at BB either.. i figure if it works... great. If not, then they don't have my business :) Its no biggy.

[TH3R]

If you are ever downtown, i normally just go to the bay and dundas location to PM against sig. Never had a problem, the only thing they do with daily killers is they sometimes check the website for quantity but generally sig never runs out within the day


+1

never had a problem PM'ing at BB downtown. super fast and easy. I just go with a printout, and that's all it takes in my experiences.

i remember i got Role Models for under $12 after PM'ing SIG for $12.99, and BB $30+ retail price.

on another note, bringing back my JCVD since I gotta have lossless audio and the extra features.

I mentioned these in the $99 BR player thread the other day. Interesting that most of them, if not all, were previously available on HD DVD, many of them selling at WM for just $5. I guess seeing as HD DVD owners generally have these titles already there isn't that much demand for the BR versions, so prices have had to be cut to try to get them to move. There ARE some excellent titles there, but they were a much better deal at $5 each! :lol:

Good luck. I tried getting them to PM Eoutlet but they gave me the usual we don't PM liquidation, outlets. Didn't bother arguing.

I guess i got lucky, i was able to PM with E-outlet at BB. I ended up getting Mad men for like $18 + tax and Afro Samurai Resurrection for $13 + tax (both were a steal imo :D) I was unfortunately uanble to get Tropic Thunder due to the cover not matching. I tried explaining that all Blu-rays were the same and that both of them have multi-lingual options.. still no dice. I figured instead of causing a ruckus over 1 movie, i'd just take the 2 i got and try again some other day. Thank you E-outlet.. another online store i can rely on for PMing.. my wallet is gonna be hurting alot now...

That's exactly what I was thinking - I'm looking for BR deals, and I have all these that I want, on HD and for only $5.

The BR fanboys are always gabbing about how "Blu-ray is where all the NEW movies are", so where are the deals on these not-available-on-HD-DVD movies?

[Ivan9100]

Seriously though, if you want good prices like $5 for BR, you might as well wait until the format is dead and being replaced by the new thing 5 years down the line or where market saturation is enough that studios can actually sell them for cheap. DVD has a huge market right now and that is why they are so cheap. HDDVD was cheap for a dead format and they wanted to liquidate the stock. Which is still happening for a select few popular movies while the other ones you can't find anymore.

For now though, if you shop around and capitalize on the deals, you can pick up movies for CHEAP. Not 5 cheap but lower than the MSRP at most B&M.

I have yet to pay full retail for a select few movies.

No one is talking about $5, as you obviously know from reading the comments, so stop being a doofus. We're simply referring to the fact that many of the BR "deals" are of movies that were previously available as $5 HD-DVD steals.

Basically no value at all for many who got an HD-DVD player for low or even no cost, and it's clear this is driving BR demand through the floor. After being on sale for $5, few will buy these same HD movies even at $10-$15.

I just want to add new high-def movies to my collection, but the BR deals are almost non-existent. Seems like all new/proprietary content is still nosebleed priced.

i have no clue.. but ya after 10 years something will come out but its different in a way because you wouldnt replace your BD's with a newer format. BD's are already great quality. Right now ppl are replacing their DVD format to Bd's which is reasonable. They want the ultimate high def quality.

1997, I'm pretty sure. The format was probably ready a year earlier but the first-generation stuff I remember coming out in '97.

I can't remember if I read it on RFD or one of those many HT forums, but someone was talking about how certain new movies like Star Trek will unfortunately look worse on future, higher-definition formats because they were locked down to 1080P during the processing stage (when the movie is colour-corrected and special effects are added). Ditto for movies which were shot on digital HD cameras; they will be forever locked into that resolution, whereas a movie shot on film 50 years earlier could still have room to go up (since 35mm film apparently has at least four times the equivalent resolution of 1080P).

[need2save]

would've been better if it was the 2008 the day the earth stood still.

Especially since the new version includes a copy of the original on blu-ray as the third disc! CHCanada had it for $13.99 a few weeks ago, but I had no idea about the 1951 version being in there until I received mine. I prefer this to having a DVD copy of the same movie, a la Disney.

[drumboz79]

The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) was crap IMO

That's not really true, as most high-end studio HD movies use 4K (4096 horizontal) resolutions and even the most basic production utilizes 2K (the minimum for a HD projector), which is still a bit better than 1920h.

I have no idea why any studio movie would "lock" the film at only 1080p (although some cinematography effects are done at that resolution), since that wouldn't look too good on any big screen in a theater. If it looked good there, it will look much better on smaller screen real estate.

You're right, I remembered after I posted that the resolution I was thinking of was 2K, not 1K. Although the movie was shot on film, when they did the colour timing etc they created a 2K DI.

Not that I could tell any of this watching the movie in the theatre... nor will I notice on the blu-ray, I'm sure. But I guess the idea was that "locked" into this resolution, the movie will look comparable to a standard DVD upscaled to HD when Star Trek eventually goes to the next generation (no pun intended ;)).

[Tornado F2]

The BR fanboys are always gabbing about how "Blu-ray is where all the NEW movies are", so where are the deals on these not-available-on-HD-DVD movies?

Now that I've got a BR player and have started checking out reviews I'm seeing that there are a lot of crap BRs out there. Especially so for many new movies, which are generally reviewed as crap anyway. There should be a law - only movies with a certain number of redeeming qualities should be released in hi-def. Anything below that threshold should only be released on DVD, or better yet confined to video stores for a single night's rental.

On a side note, I discovered that the only decent MGM BR releases last year were the Bond films, which I now have. So much for the guy who said we'd miss out on all MGM's releases. :)

[Tornado F2]

i give it 10 years or so..... when did the first dvd come out?

A key stage will be if/when BR drives become commonplace in PCs. Not so much for piracy, but simply because we all want an affordable alternative playback device if we're going to start spending serious money on discs. I know from personal experience that my own CD collection expanded rapidly after I purchased my first CD-equipped PC, (I still have the discs, even after ripping them to the HDD), and that was even more the case when I installed a DVD-ROM drive in my PC. We may not actually watch that many movies on our PCs, but it is reassuring to know that the option exists.

The simple fact is, a few excellent movies justify paying higher prices for, since you want to watch them over and over again. But sadly there are a lot of movies out there, especially a lot of newer copy-cat or "re-imagined" releases, that barely justify purchasing, even at below-rental prices. A number of the newer $10 BR releases that I purchased at WM are going straight back because they turned out to be complete crap. Amazingly enough I read a review that said that Jason Statham's "In The Name Of The King" was even worse than Crank 2. Having regrettably wasted a cereal coupon on Crap 2 there's no way at all that I'm going to waste $10 on something that, inconceivably enough, is reported as being even worse. Even though it couldn't possibly be any worse (hopefully) I'm definitely going to put that money toward something much better instead.

[Ivan9100]

I agree with you. All my movies, I could have gotten for cheaper on HD DVD but I`m OCD and wanted my collection blu. I barely own any of the new movies but this year will change though. Star Trek is a must own for me.

Oh lord that movie was sad. I don`t even know what made Jason do it. It`s not like he doesn`t have money.

I don't get what the big deal is about Keanu Reeves. He's hardly an "actor", yet somehow he gets cast in potentially decent projects. Guess we should all be named after killer whales!

Yeah, Trek was one of those rare movies that had me coming out of the theatre thinking "I'm going to buy that one when it comes out". It had flaws, yet I still enjoyed it better than I'd expected.

As for JS, which one are you referring to? Could ITNOTK really have been as bad as C2? Almost certainly the WORST movie I've ever subjected myself (and a friend) to. That was the rare movie that had me coming out thinking "WTF were the distributors thinking paying for and distributing that?"

[Ivan9100]

I couldn`t finish ITNOTK. It started out pretty weird and I lost interest. Though seeing JS swing a sword was cool lol.

Crank 2 was even worst. That was the most mindless crud they could have put out. I liked Crank but Crank 2 was really out there. There is rumors of a Crank 3.

[Vinman]

OMFG, you guys are talking about that absolutely horrible Dungeon Siege movie directed by Uwe Boll, right?

It was released theatrically as Dungeon Siege, got hammered in the reviews and made about 2-cents at the BO, so I guess they changed the name for the BR, or just made the "ITNOTK" part much larger to fool people into buying it.

[Ivan9100]

I downloaded it and I can`t even finish it. I have to keep reminding myself to avoid anything with Uwe Boll. He should be dragged into the streets and shot, he has no rights making ANY movies.

Sounds like it's definitely going back then. You've got me curious now though - WHY is it so bad? Boring? Sick? Language? Or something else?

[Ivan9100]

I didn't finish it actually. I found it boring. It was set in the medievil times and I don't want to ruin the premise but pretty much something happens to him, he goes and seek revenge. Any movie where they name the lead FARMER, stay away.

If anything you can watch it and sell it to blockbuster. They should take it lol. Just think of it as a 1.10 rental.

Interesting bit of trivia. This version is the longer version at 165 mins and has made about 14 million in BD sales alone, which is more than the revenue from its theatrical run.

Actually, they handed out flyers a long time ago for $5 off GB. I don't know if there is an online version where you can print off. You could PM and get $5. It's a manufacturer coupon. I used an online version on Amazon.com and got it for 14.99.

Got back from BB to PM Bug's Life from SIG and Tropic thunder from e-outlet. Success :cheesygri. Bugs Life did not have the $10 Up coupon but for $27 tax in i cannot complain.

As for transformers, yes i saw that the reviews are bad but from what i hear from ppl they say its a wicked movie. And told me not to pay attention to the reviews. I never do anyways.

To be honest G.I. Joe looks even worse. I'll watch anything though so hopefully it has camp value.

Yep. Still looking for deals on Batman 1989, FF7, Man on Fire and DeJa Vu. NOTHING.

+1 on DejaVu and man on fire.. if i see a deal on that ill let u know. i want those titles too.

On another note, i read somewhere that Braveheart and Gladiator will be out on blu ray soon. Great movies.

[danman227460]

I know DeJa Vu is on sale at WM for 21.98 but still a bit pricy for me.

Ya. I pre ordered a copy of Gladiator on Amazon UK. They are suppose to be releasing a steelbook and this is one I must have.

Steelbook huh..i wouldnt mind getting that. but when u ordered from uk, isnt it pal version?

[danman227460]

People have stated that is region free due to the company distributing it. The movie is going to be region free but the special features might not be. It is a bit expensive with the conversion rate. I'm looking at 35.

Wow, thats kinda steep. I assume NA version does not have steelbook (im surprised FS will not do it, thats normally their cup of tea). CHcanada does not look like they will be updating their list (thats what happens when you put something like Rise of the Lycans as part of the new $13.99, i doubt that even sold well). I will update this post in half an hour with sigs daily killer i guess...

Guess i can save money for Battlestar Galactica.. anyone come across a better deal than price matching FS with BBs now listed price?

Edit: Sig has Traitor and Space Cowboys for $12.99 each *sigh*

[danman227460]

Well with all things considering, I assume this movie will retail above 25 here, maybe near the Pixar levels. So overall it isn't too bad. This movie won't get released for another 2-3 months so hopefully the conversion rate changes.

As posted in another thread, Chcanada.com updated their list to include Valkyrie and Paul Blartt: Mall Cop as their $13.99 selection for this week. There is a coupon to use for $1.99 individual shipping cost so Valkyrie ended up costing me $18 tax in.. not too bad.

On a seperate note: BB is offering an online sale with 10% discount off select blu-rays beginning 9pm tonight. I wonder if battlestar galactica pre-order is included in that select blu-ray selection.. thats like $25 off and i could always cancel my pre-order if some other site has a sweeter deal...

Is that $1.99 off shipping for free shipping? Because $1.99 per individual selection is just their regular shipping rate (as long as it's under three discs, when it jumps to a whopping $5.99!).

Not sure if the free shipping for orders over $39 promo is still going on, but it was still working a couple of weeks ago.

Free shipping not available.. i didn't know $1.99 was their regular shipping fee, i was prompted to put in a promo code cause if memory serves me correct its $5.99 if you don't but dont quote me on it :)

No promo code needed for $1.99 shipping -- that's the cost for a single item up to two discs (I just ordered the 2-disc TAKEN blu-ray last week when it was $13.99). For some reason they jack up the cost to $5.99 for a three-disc set, even as they let you get away with $1.99 for a two-disc set.

I won Revolutionary Road on blu-ray in a contest recently. It's okay... well acted and well shot certainly, but a downer movie that I ultimately couldn't get into. I feel like I've seen this story too many times before, although I understand the source novel is the grand-daddy of the "dysfunctional modern suburban family" genre. ;)

The 10% off online sale was a better price during Canada day. Ended up costing me around $264.41 tax in i think. Hmm... sounds like BB wants to estimate how many customers are interested in this product before placing an order on it. I would assume limited quantities... i hope my box isn't busted during the delivery....

Edit: Appears that free shipping is now offered for any online orders over $39. I called in and was able to get free shipping with my order during Canada day. Anyone who did the same thing with pre-orders should be able to get free shipping (save $2) if you call in.

Harold and Kumar, agreed interesting movie but not worth $12.99 to me on blu-ray.

Now... when is sig gonna post what kinda sale P-mall is having this weekend.. im tempted to just call in and find out because their opening store flyer said their web would have details...

Lame sale for SIG.. not updated fully on their website yet but their weekly flyer portion has it. $13.99 for each blu-ray provided you buy 10 lol. Daily killers were better imo and PMing with BB was even sweeter. Only one im interested in is GB so i will sleep in :)

[blahblehblah]

anyone pick up anything from the sig so called sale..

I went as my girlfriend had to work saturday and woke me up early in the morning... figured what the heck.

To my surprise they had more titles than their website listed, so i managed to come up with 10 titles that i wanted. As follows:

Notorious
Little Miss Sunshine
Tales of the black freighter (did not like it sadly)
National Treasure
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (loved movie when i was a kid)
The International (heard it was only ok but havent watched yet)
Air Force one (actually had $10 movie coupon inside which i just used to see Harry Potter next week.. sweet as hell deal lol)
Milk
Leatherheads
Ghostbusters (was lucky, P-mall had none but i pointed to their flyer and they had a copy moved from the Richmond Hill location for me, last copy)

Chcanada.com has updated their website as well with a bunch of new $13.99 blu-rays. Notorious, Little miss Sunshine, The dark Knight, Frost/Nixon, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Speed Racer are the titles i would probably recommend out of the list. Its a pretty good selection this time around, shame there is nothing for me.

[danman227460]

Pretty nice. Those are some nice choices. Ya the Tales was more of a direct comic adaptation. I think you have to be a Watchmen fan to like that one because they ripped it out of the comics and made it into a movie.

Hopefully there is some good sig deals today.

SIG has notorious as part of their daily killer today but i doubt its gonna be $12.99, last time it was up there i think it was $16.99. Website not fully updated to reflect the correct pricing yet. Not cheaper by much at CHcanada factoring in shipping as well. Save like $1 but gotta wait 1-2 weeks, if you have a BB or SIG close by just buy it or Price match.

Costco had a good deal for this a while back (might have expired already) where it included planet earth and 3 other documentaries on blu-ray (all excellent i heard) for somewhere like $110 or so. As to just Planet Earth, no deals i know of just now for that one.

If you have a costco membership, i would still suggest you do a quick call into one and find out if they still have copies of that promo i mentioned. I don't know if the PQ of the blue planet one is any good though. Planet Earth PQ is amazing though.. i can re-watch that thing 2 to 3 times and still be awed at what i see (make sure you get the David Attenborough narration though and not the US release one)

Yeah half of that list did not appear on their website which was why i initially did not wanna go. They only had like 1 copy of Little Miss Sunshine, Leatherheads, Ghostbusters, Robin hood, National Treasure. 2 copies of Air force One and the international, but like 20 copies of notorious, transformers and like 30 copies of quantum of solace lol.

Is that a hit and miss still? If no duty taxes for sure, then BSG complete season blu-ray is cheaper on amazon.co.uk then... someone else posted it to be around $210 CAD only :( I don't wanna risk it due to how big this one is but it does kinda make sense they won't duty tax the recipient of a gift.

Oh crap that sucks lol :( Guess thats a no go then. Funny i checked out BSG complete series on bestbuy.com and amazon.com as well, prices are not that much better vs canada. Guess i will stick to my pre-order for now, thanks :)

someone should post all the movies that are previously viewed from rogers 2 for $30

[danman227460]

That is impossible. Store stock varies among ALL locations. What I find in the GTA will vary from store to store to store. The only sure bets are: Gran Torino, Curious Case of Benjamin Button and any new titles they decide to pull.

Beyond that, YMMV. Some people will have good titles at their location while some will have a crappy selection.

Sig Update
Bangkok Dangerous: 14.99
Batman Gotham Knights: 12.99

I have crap selections around my area. I think i saw one Benjamin Button but no Gran Torinos as i am waiting for those to go on preview as well.

Same with me.. Only a few selections at Rogers. Nothing really worth it. BBV 2 for 30 ended on July 5th i believe. Guess we'll wait for that to go back since they have tons of selections.

BBV 2 for $30 still going on in my area... it ended July 5th? Nothing good on the horizon anyways... gran torino is the only one im looking to get from the PV section. I have a ton of credit sitting with BB when i traded in some blu-rays that i regretted buying.. might pick up either true blood season 1 or Lost 1,2 or 4....

Good to know, hopefully Gran Torino will be in the selections by then. Supposedly BBV had this buy movie promo where if you buy over $50 you get a $5 gift card or something like that but that promo is ending in Sept and they don't accept new members for it anymore.

[Scott Pilgrim]

Well Life of Brian is a good movie. I don't know if it warrants a blu ray purchase if you already have it but it's worth a shot if you are a fan and don't have a copy.

[Iggynatz]

Went ahead and PMed Life of Brian at FS. One of my all time faves. Decent enough transfer, which is cake.

PM at BB which lists it at $28.99 or wait like 2-3 weeks to see if chcanada.com will sell it for $13.99 or end up in BBV for the 2 for $30 section after a month hehe. No good deals atm but im pretty sure this movie will be on the discount list quite soon :D

Finally something good on Sig Daily Killer

Silence of the Lambs: 16.99

Agreed. Good price for Batman Begins if you don't already have it. Silence of the Lambs is a bit expensive imo.. if it was $12.99, that would be a good deal.

[danman227460]

Well true. It is only 3 cheaper than stores. If you can price match, you can get it for 16.69 lol.

There was a better deal where they had a two pack of Silence and Donnie Darko for 20 at WM. Can't seem to find it anywhere now.

[GreenEggsAndSpam]

Cold deal on Silence of the Lambs.
Walmart currently has this bundle with Donnie Darko for 20 dollars. Same type deal as the Fantastic Four/Daredevil bundle, the 2 Transporters, the 2 DeNiro movies, etc..

[danman227460]

That is if you can find it. In the more populated areas, all the WM have been picked clean. At least in my area. I can't find anything like what they had before.

Also if you like Donnie Darko then the bundle is for you.

Wow I didn't know that the Donnie Darko/Silence of the Lambs pack existed. Gonna be on the lookout for that one.

[splinter]

Is there a good deal for hellboy 2? I think there was one a couple weeks ago at BB, but i missed it...

[BlazinTrini]

Sigs had Hellboy 2 a few months ago or so for $12.99 at one point

[blahblehblah]

Sigs had Hellboy 2 a few months ago or so for $12.99 at one point

chcanada.com had it a while back too at $13.99 but i believe it has since been removed. If you are not in a hurry you can always wait for it to resurface on sig and PM at your local BB/FS

Well there are 3 Walmarts around my way, and Kelsey Drive was the only one with 1 copy left.
Too bad I already bought Donnie Darko at FS for 10 dollars. I've been looking to get Silence of the Lambs but have no one to sell the other movie to.

[danman227460]

Ya. All my WMs have been picked clean. Nothing left in terms of the sale titles. Even all the two packs are gone. All that is left are the titles that no one wants. I am curious if they just packed up the stock that didn't sell cuz there is no way that many people wanted In The Name of the King yet I can't find a copy.

The price of Hellboy 2 isn't that hot. BB had it for 15.99 while CHCanada had it for 13.99. It was also part of Rogers last PPV 2 for 30 deal.

Ya during WM sales, that one was a surprise to see actually. I don't think many stores actually carried that bundle. Out of all the WMs near me, 5, 1 only had it or I only saw it at one.

[blahblehblah]

Memory is blurry but i think chcanada.com has updated their website with the 2 new titles this week

- Knockaround guys
- The uninvited

Both for $13.99. Nothing for me if thats the case.. i will look at their website next week :D

I also saw Knowing on blu-ray for $22.99 at HMV at fairview mall. The price tag on the blu-ray was for $29.99 actually but they had a different price on the shelf itself. Not sure how hot of a price this is for the movie as i didn't keep track (was not interested in the title), but for those that are, not a bad price i think for a newly released blu-ray.

Lets see what sig has to offer today...

[KC108]

SIG Daily Update:

Ghost / 27 Dresses $12.99/each

Quantam of Solace/2010 $14.99/each
Quantam Of Solace isn't that bad at the price though I'd pull the trigger if it was 2-3 dollars cheaper.

[blahblehblah]

Quantam Of Solace isn't that bad at the price though I'd pull the trigger if it was 2-3 dollars cheaper.

I found the movie to be too much of a segway between the future third installment and the first vs being a bond movie on its own. I'll pull the trigger on it when it dips below $10 as im in no rush to get it :) I could swear seeing like 30 copies at SIG in P-Mall last time i went lol

You are right, looking at the big picture helps make the movie a lot better. The movie is a lot better than many think, but perspective has to be there. If you watch the two Daniel Craig movies back to back you start to like Quantum more and Casino Royale a little less, but appreciate both more as a whole. I think Quantum will age a lot better once the 3rd movie comes out.

Sig updated their daily killer:

- The Mist
- Punisher: War Zone

Both for $12.99.

I might bite on The Mist and PM this at BB. Good reviews and i tend to enjoy Stephen King's movies :)

[danman227460]

Picked up War Zone a while ago on BBV. Not the best movie but a good popcorn flick when you are bored.

The Mist was an interesting movie but I didn't like the ending.

The Punisher is hilarious.

Sig has to update their blu-ray choices... makes me wonder how much of these turd-rays they hoarded to tighten their cash flow...

[danman227460]

I think if we ignore Sigs from now on, they would start having decent sales again.

[blahblehblah]

I think if we ignore Sigs from now on, they would start having decent sales again.

I have already stopped checking really, i only check to update for others that still have not bought their remaining stock and want it at a decent price. I find it funny that SIG now also sells those massage chairs for like $5K-$6K, that must be a HUGE cash flow tightener (anyways i digress).

Im hoping to see them put on some series like madmen season 2, dexter season 2 and stuff like that for a decent price. IMO SIG cannot really compete with others like chcanada.com anymore in terms of single movies especially when their titles are not updated like chcanada.com does on a weekly basis. They have to find their own niche if they wanna continue playing in this market but thats just my own opinion :)

[blahblehblah]

Update for others at SIG:

- Carrie
- Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (havent they put this one on their daily killer like 5 times already? lol)

[danman227460]

I think they got too much of the movie and they can't move the stock. Only if they were steelbooks lol.

SIG Update July 23

House of Wax - 12.99

Notorious - 14.99

sigh...

Funny enough they dropped the price of Notorious (i think they are reading these threads lol). It used to be $16.99 during their daily killer sales and now its $14.99. I know for a fact they stocked up alot of copies of that movie. Went to P-mall one time and they had 20 copies at that location alone lol.

Its not a bad movie apparently and got some decent reviews. If you PM this with BB or FS, the deal gets sweeter.

House of Wax on the other hand...comeon..its like paying $12.99 seeing Paris Hilton try to act. There was better acting in her home-video that was free :) lol

[danman227460]

Ya so the assumptions are right. They are only getting rid of stock they have too much of. All the new movies are probably limited in stock and they can move those easier. Hopefully we don't see another Indy 4 daily killer. They might as well give those out as coasters or to every customer that buys another disc lol.

I think they should implement a similar strategy as chcanada.com and put on a couple that are placed at the daily killer price and update it each week with 1 or 2 new additions. Alot of people don't budge on these daily killers cause shipping kills the deal if they are not within range of a SIG store or cannot PM with BB/FS to get the deal. Normally i would imagine people wait until the weekends to see which 4 movies are up for daily killers to even out the cost of shipping but the movie selections as of late for the weekend have been horrid.

The sad part to all this is, there are now local small shops picking up on the blu-ray frenzy and knowing there is a buck or two to be gained from entering this biz. Some of them are able to even undercut online stores due to no shipping and more variety of titles at a steady price.

Anyways i digress again, tomorrow should be interesting for SIG update :)

[Trifid]

I wish SIG would have more information available when new BDs are added to thier stock as the current web page only shows by price and title and new arrivals usually isn't updated for BDs.

In regards to the coasters (or repeat Daily killers) they may have to start dropping the price to 9.99 to get us to bite on some of these discs.

Yup, i only got to take advantage earlier this year from these daily killers when i got to PM at BB. But even if BB was still allowing PMing i still wouldnt go for these titles Sig has recently. Heres for hoping good weekend deals. Then i can finally visit Pac Mall.

- Dark Water - $12.99
- Superman: Doomsday - $12.99
- Frost/Nixon - $14.99

Only saving grace here is frost/nixon really. Im sure by now most if not all people have their copy of transformers already. Dark water and Superman: Doomsday are a skip it so 2/4 i guess.. not bad. Now to wait for the prices as it says starting from $12.99, my speculation is transformers and frost/nixon are like $14.99

Edit: looked it up. I thought they re-released it already on June 16th. The cover doesn't look any different than the one before but has BD-live feature. Perhaps they can price match it at BB if they find it.

Yup, i believe its coming next week. Its available for preorder on amazon last time i checked. They dont give a picture though. I saw 300 re release at a store yesterday and its the Digibook edition. It was pretty thick. I dont have a copy of 300 yet so i might bite on this one but at $32.99 i might wait until it goes down. The only thing is its a Limited Edition, and it will stop selling by the end of august.

The thing with limited editions is, they will probably stop printing copies of this by end of August, but im sure there will be some residual stock left for sure. BB at Yonge and Dundas sold a couple of copies the first 2 days and i went the third day and saw them re-stock it back to like 6 copies and filled the rack. I'm sure alot of copies might have been mistakenly ordered due to the RFD effect on the online order lol so don't jump the gun yet :) If you really want a copy and can't wait, message me, i might be able to save you $5 with an ISPU from BB :)

In store pick up, otherwise there is shipping charge unless you order something over $39. I still don't think its worth paying close to MSRP for this item really but to each their own :) Im more patient, i'm sure our fellow quebecois RFDers will get their copies soon and some will be kind enough to sell to fellow RFDers at a slight profit :D

Where in the Pickering FLEA MARKET are the $10 and up blurays the op is talking about?

Not sure, did you check craigslist maybe? sometimes the advertisement might be there with an address.

I would imagine only the really old titles are like $10.. most of the recent if not new ones would probably be around $17-$20 :)

Where in the Pickering FLEA MARKET are the $10 and up blurays the op is talking about?

Pretty good but not great. If you don't mind buying from BBV or RV, they should have these on the store shelves before the end of August. Shipping kills it for me.

Shipping is only $1.99. Even after taxes, you'd get Gran Torino for example, for $17.90(In B.C.)...the title would be brand new, and you'd get the digital copy, something that Roger's or Blockbuster don't include. Even if your getting the title as part of the 2 for $30 at those places, your still gonna pay around $16.80 per title(In B.C.).

[danman227460]

It will cost me 18.05 if I just wanted Friday the 13th shipped or I can get Friday the 13th and Gran Torino for 30 or 16.95 each. Sure I could get the digital copy but for me, they are just coasters. I have a huge pile of digital movie codes and I don't even use them.

Try the clearance bin at Zellers, most stores were shipped the Lord of the Rings gift sets which are in another thread. My local store was also shipped a bunch of Blu-Rays... most weird titles, but Air Force One was only mainstream title and priced at $9.99. About 8 copies were there, I would assume similar or exact titles would have been shipped to all stores recently.

Ya.. errr sorry.. No, zellers did not get the LOTR BDs months ahead, boy would that be sweet. I meant to say that while looking for the LOTR DVD boxsets, which are mentioned in another Hot Deals thread, I discovered Air Force One BD for $9.99 in the same clearance bin. Many copies were available and I assume most stores would have received the same stock.

Im gonna stop checking from SIG unless they start updating their blu-ray collection. I don't feel like helping them clear their turd stock to ease their cash flow. If other retail stores can beat them with their regular pricing, i don't understand how they can call this a daily killer... makes me wonder if they understand whom is being killed here :)

HD DVD returns and kicks Blu-ray to the gutter

HD DVD returns and kicks Blu-ray to the gutter
Posted by Robin Harris @ 3:13 pm

Just when Blu-ray thought it had clear sailing, a tempest has risen in the East: China Blue Hi-definition Disk (CBHD). Toshiba has licensed its HD DVD to them and it will be the unit world leader in HD optical technology in just 12 months.

Why? The Times Online reports that the CBHD players are outselling Blu-ray in China by 3-1 and the CBHD disks cost a quarter of Blu-ray.

Blu-ray, we hardly knew ye
What happened to Blu-ray’s dominance? Blu-ray’s dominance.

Conceived by Sony at a time when few thought upscaling would succeed, the idea was that HDTVs would require HD content on optical media. Reliving the glory days of DVD adoption they forecast tens of billions in revenue from players and disks, enormous licensing fees and consumer-proof DRM.

Watching the CD business crater, studio thought that HD would drive their business to new heights while eliminating piracy. It was an optical gold rush - that has turned into a mirage.

The fundamental problem is that the slightly sharper HD picture isn’t worth the extra dollars. 10%-15% max.

Enter the dragon
China has good reasons to support a home-grown HD format. First, the exorbitant Blu-ray royalties hurts Chinese manufacturers ability to compete on price.

An equally important, but unspoken, issue is the econoclypse. The Chinese government has made a deal with the Chinese people: leave us in control and we’ll deliver rising living standards. The current slow down has hit China hard: millions have been laid off and economic growth is anemic.

CBHD is a double win for the Chinese government: billions saved in royalties; and a much cheaper, locally manufactured, luxury item for the restless masses. Blu-ray is simply collateral damage.

Studio knuckle-draggers no doubt are salivating at a tough new form of Region encoding: incompatible formats for the West and Asia. But will that really work?

English is the #2 language in Asia, so English-language CBHDs will be popular. Shanghai vendors will happily sell CBHD players and disks on Ebay. The economics are irresistible and, other than the studios, who will turn down HD content at DVD prices?

The Storage Bits take
Toshiba’s gambit is brilliant. Instead of taking a total loss on their billion-dollar HD DVD investment, they’ll get incremental revenue and, no doubt, valuable future consideration from the Chinese government.

It is a nice win for the Chinese government and manufacturers. Blu-ray’s high cost has slowed its acceptance to a crawl, so Chinese CBHD players will rapidly climb down the cost curve to prices lower than DVD-only players since they aren’t paying DVD royalties either.

The studios get a couple of years to make some money on Chinese CBHD releases, but will piracy disappear? Not anytime soon.

The big loser is the Blu-ray camp. Boo-hoo. They’ve consistently misjudged the market and Blu-ray’s appeal. Guys, I’m sorry you made a bad business decision, but it’s time to man up and take your write-offs.

CBHD vendors should not ignore the writable CBHD market. Many consumers would like something larger than DVDs for backup and much cheaper - and more compatible - than Blu-ray.

Here’s hoping the CBHD storage market is running wild by this time next year. CBHD will be the world’s #1 format in unit volume by next year.

Comments welcome, of course. Who vetted that name? China Blue was Kathleen Turner’s alter-ego in Ken Russell’s outrageous Crimes of Passion. A prostitute by night, hard-charging professional woman by day and a constant temptation to Tony Perkins’ street preacher, she is certainly not a character the prudish Chinese government would endorse.

http://blogs.zdnet.com/storage/?p=562

[blahblehblah]

Actually, i have known about that news for a while already. The only thing i can think of is that format will probably not be receptive over here in the west but who knows.. only time will tell.

However, on a positive note, another high def format war might be even more beneficial to us the consumers as price will be competitive which means we will be just getting cheaper blu-rays :)

ahhh thats very true.. but i hope it doesnt end up killing the blu-ray industry then theyll just stop making blu rays for good. but what about capacity? hddvds cant hold as much as blu rays can they?

So i happened to walk across Sig's store at P-mall to see how many blu-rays they still had left. It appears to me from their lack of blu-ray updates and their diminishing stock that my initial speculation that they are trying to get out of the market would seem correct. Oh well, Rogers, BBV and local stores are my current supply anyways.

Chcanada did not update their selections this week right?

Some nice updates there from chcanada.com. Too bad i have most of the ones i want from that list already. I recommend slumdog millionaire, leatherheads and night at the museum. There are positive reviews on appleseed ex machina and eastern promises as well. Raging bull is a classic but does not appeal to my taste for my collection. I have Juno but i never found what was so great about it. Afro Samurai is also a fun anime, assuming you like the concept but i would recommend watching the first series before buying resurrection. I would avoid the rest though but thats just me :)

Is it store policy they do not PM against SIG or is it just the CSR being a pain in the neck? I used to get the same bs arguement from them saying they don't PM for whatever excuse they could come up with (most notably saying that SIG is not an authorized dealer blah blah blah). My counterarguement was unless they can prove to me they are not an authorized dealer, they have to honor their PM policy. Alot of the times the manager does end up approving the PM because they want the revenue.

I know argueing is a pain but if you successfully argue it the first time around, it makes headway for future PMs from the same website/place (at least in my experience the first time was always a fight and the other times it was easy as pie).

Btw, which area are you around jaydm?

Hey..im around scarborough area. And yes thats the argument i get. They are not a authorized dealer and also their refund policy is not the same!?!..so i stopped Pming. i got fed up..

That sucks. I've yet to have a problem PM'ing a SIG deal at either Best Buy or Future Shop....knock on wood.

Yep, i can understand. I get fed up sometimes with argueing with stores on stuff like these but if its something i want, i basically have them call their manager and come deal with this.

Is that the BB in STC.. man that sucks, im gonna for sure avoid doing any PM's there next time. Come downtown bro :) So far no PM problems yet.. *knock on wood*

[jaydm]

ahhh..where do you guys PM??.. Are scarborough stores the only sucky locations??

If i was near Downtown then no problem but i never travel down there..and PMing something for 12 bux might not be worth it..lol.

[shezbot]

Mostly downtown Toronto. I've been able to PM in Pickering too.

[jaydm]

Pickering?? im like borderline scarb/pickering. Theres a bb in pickering? you mean Ajax? on harwood and kingston?

I dunno.. for me the savings are adding up fast. I think had i paid MSRP for anything vs the discount price i pay via PMing and all the sorts i would be out probably around $500 if not more.

Try this, select to purchase stuff online with ISPU at the STC BB. Then call in online to price match to SIG, e-outlet or whatever and see what they say. I assume online might be a bit more lenient than STC BB, worse case scenario you are just back at square one right? Nothing to lose

Hmmm interesting..i might try that one in Ajax first. If that doesnt work i might try this technique. They only have a problem with Sigs. Eoutlet i never have a problem. or any other stores for that matter.

Btw, is the pickering flea market any good for picking up new blu-ray titles or are they mostly dated titles? And how much is it roughly?

A few more I found browsing the site. It is weird the non lenticular Terminator is at 12.99 but the lenticular one isn't. On a closer look, their site needs to be fixed. There are two listings for Terminator 2 Skynet Edition with two different prices.

Battle of Britain
Species
Terminator (Non Lenticular cover one)
Pink Panther
Robocop

If they're from the Pickering Flea Market than they're probably knock-offs LOL :D

[DVDManiac]

In Vancouver, Charlie's Music is having a "25% off everything" sale, yes it's used, but I was able to pick up I Am Legend and Batman Begins for $11.25 + tax. Also saw Band of Brothers for regular $65 so $48.75+tax, they have video games for all platforms, and tons of DVDs and CDs. Not really sure if the video games were a good deal, didn't see any I wanted for PS3/Wii. Located on Granville near Robson.

oh yeah, don't know when the sale is ending (if still on), was on as of yesterday.

[jaydm]

thats what i thought..but they are actually factory sealed. I can pretty much tell the knock offs now. #1 Knock offs are never sealed with the factory white sticker on top/bottom/side. #2 Knock offs dont usually come with extra discs.

The ones from the Pickering Flea Market are Sealed. All legit.

Absolutely agree.. sometimes i think im living in the wrong city with the tax i have to pay *cough* Alberta *cough* and also the lousy discounts we experience here. Quebec has better consumer protection policies in place, other locations have better selections of blu-rays/games vs here which gets like scoured in the first day or so for hot releases :mad:

[blahblehblah]

Crap selection from SIG:

- SAW IV
- Primeval
- High school musical 3 (this was there last week)
- Aeon flux

I assume at some point in time their stock will clear but repeating a title like 4 times for a daily killer is kind of... well... ridiculous?

I've been there twice last month, but I'm not sure where this place is inside the flea-market:confused:
Maybe you can be a little more specific with its location, and use the food court or the surplus store as point of reference

Can anyone confirm this in store?

Online they say '20 Titles" but the site only shows 13, and neither Princess Bride nor Silence of the lambs are included... Princess bride BR shows as 26.99 online and I can't find the SOTL BR... typical FS BS.

Isnt 17 again not released until this tuesday? LOL. I would not touch dragonball even if they gave it to me for free and the same goes with obsessed.

Bourne trilogy not a bad price.. worth buying imo. The rest.. not so much but thats just my opinion hehe

that guy has tons of blu rays from the last time i went there.

He was also selling $12.99 blu rays..Dirty Dancing, TMNT..few other titles..cant really remember

On a side note, he sells HD-DVD's for 3 for 20.

I believe HMV was selling 4 HD-DVDS for $20 and still is. Some places are even cheaper for this semi-deceased format.

This should help your decision on DBZ and obsessed easier:

I heard we got a lame duck version of 17 again due to Alliance owning the release rights in Canada. There was missing extras when compared to the US release.

Anyone see any good deals on Waterboy? That movie should NOT be 29.99 :mad:

Ya. I read the review. It is still one of my favourite Adam Sandler movies and I wouldn't mind owning it. Still 29.99 for a barebones release is stupid.

I'd wait for chcanada.com to put it as a $13.99 title then, nowhere else is selling this for cheap right now.. at least not that i've found. I agree though, barebone release for $29.99 sucks and i cannot believe disney did a dump on such an adam sandler classic.

[blahblehblah]

I don't think this is of anyone's interest but just sticking with tradition. Turd deals from SIG:

- Basic instinct - $12.99
- The forbidden Kingdom - $12.99

On a positive note, i saw like 5 copies of Coraline already under the 2 for $30 previewed section at Rogers Plus so anyone wanting to grab Coraline for $15 + tax might wanna head there. Only thing i would be hesitant on is the 3D glasses are not inside but you can always buy one online that is a better quality anyways for like $5 per.

Where can you buy the better glasses? I imagine the cardboard ones will be too small and suck.

[jaydm]

i forgot to mention that in flea market they had like 5 copies of 300: Digibook Complete experience. Im assuming it was 24 bux or so.

[danman227460]

The 3D is a gimmick on Coraline. You are better off without them. I couldn't stand to watch the movie for longer than 10 mins with them on so I can't imagine me sitting through 1.5 hours of it.

The home technology is just not there yet for true 3D.

[blahblehblah]

Where can you buy the better glasses? I imagine the cardboard ones will be too small and suck.

I just looked it up on google online under 3D glasses and found companies that manufacture them for like $5 a pop which are not like the cardboard type. I was also thinking that theatres that show digital 3D glasses give you a pair when you watch movies like "UP" or whatnot. You can keep those after i guess so its free instead.

i forgot to mention that in flea market they had like 5 copies of 300: Digibook Complete experience. Im assuming it was 24 bux or so.

Yeah its a good price for 300 at $24

Chcanada Update

- He's just not that into you
- 12 Rounds

Another week of money saved for the gruesome month of September - December. Im gonna compile a list soon of what im thinking of buying and the prices on websites for pre-orders. Maybe we can all discuss where to get them for cheapest price :)

[danman227460]

That's a good idea except pre orders suck on pretty much every form out there. There is no reliable source for pre orders. Anyways here is my list and what I plan on doing.

September 1:

Gladiator: Got it pre ordered, steel book from the UK. Unless you want to spend 30 on the steelbook, you can probably find it cheaper on release at WM/FS/BB etc. for the normal version

September 8:

Freddy VS Jason: This is the US release but I hear there is going to be a premium release like the recently released Sin City.

September 15:

Van Helsing: Probably going to see how much this is priced at before I buy

Wolverine: I do not plan on buying this movie as besides Dead Pool, the movie was meh. Expect near 29.99 but could drop to 24.99 if there is not enough interest like Watchmen.

September 22:

Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead: Would be cool if there is a decently priced combo pack but I would pick up Shaun of the Dead first.

October 13:

South Park: Have to get it

November 3:

Godzilla
LOTR: I can see it somewhere in the 70-80 range. I expect to see this on sale during Christmas/BD

November 10

Up/Monsters Inc.: Going to pick up Up but I already imported Monsters Inc. PQ is amazing.

November 17

Star Trek (2009): I expect some kind of promotion for this release and a price tag of 29.99.

These are by no means the only movies coming out between now and end of November but these are the titles that interest me. Some reason Terminator Salvation isn't up on the release list but should be sometime in September. I have left off some interesting titles like Forest Gump, Braveheart, Gone with the Wind, Wizard of Oz, numerous tv series, horror movies etc.

September 22:

Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead: Would be cool if there is a decently priced combo pack but I would pick up Shaun of the Dead first.

October 13:

South Park: Have to get it

November 3:

Godzilla
LOTR: I can see it somewhere in the 70-80 range. I expect to see this on sale during Christmas/BD

November 10

Up/Monsters Inc.: Going to pick up Up but I already imported Monsters Inc. PQ is amazing.

November 17

Star Trek (2009): I expect some kind of promotion for this release and a price tag of 29.99.

These are by no means the only movies coming out between now and end of November but these are the titles that interest me. Some reason Terminator Salvation isn't up on the release list but should be sometime in September. I have left off some interesting titles like Forest Gump, Braveheart, Gone with the Wind, Wizard of Oz, numerous tv series, horror movies etc.

My list as follows:

August 18 2009 - Dexter Season 3 - love the series and probably will have no good price drop as HBO series tend to never go on sales (damn you HBO!)

September 1 2009 - Agree on Braveheart and Gladiator. Heroes Season 3 can probably wait.. it started out as a great show and is picking back up but i don't have the same urge to watch it like i do for other notably better series out there (refer above Dexter)

September 8 2009 - Not a big Jason or Freddy fan. Note on Sin City - i hate how BB here took so long to release it, had i known it was gonna be released here i would not have paid full value to order from amazon :(

Fringe is an interesting series from JJ Abrams but unless the box set receives good reviews for PQ and AQ plus tons of supplements, i won't be really touching it.

September 15 2009 - Van Helsing and Wolverine would be very dependant on supplements and i expect pricing to be outrageous for those (heres to hoping wolverine has a steelbook edition)

September 22 2009 - Same. Hoping Shawn of the dead is a good price. Getting Star trek: Next generation movie set to complete the whole collection. Terminator: Sarah Conner chronicles S2 is also on my list to buy but has to be decently priced and not like freakin $60 (which is what it is listed as now)

September 29 2009 - The girlfriend experience.. :lol:must buy! I read good reviews on it.. i swear.. the reviews make me wanna buy it!

October 13 2009 - Love south park but can't justify getting it on HD....

October 27 2009 - BSG: the Plan, must buy to complete my BSG box set :)

November 3 2009 - Forrest Gump - need my box of chocolates! must buy for sure. LOTR: trilogy... this will be an impulse buy if the reviews are good.. im expecting a quatruple dip for this set by the year 2020!

November 10 2009 - Monsters Inc, UP - must buy (sadly at MSRP most likely)

November 17 2009 - Rome: Complete Series and Star Trek 2009.

December 8 2009 - Lost: Complete Season 5

And i quote for myself: "I look in my wallet and stare into the Abyss...."

[jaydm]

So i just came back from bbv near my work. I have about $120 something in credits from all the trade ins i did. So i thought i would preorder some upcoming movies. They had Wolverine and Monsters vs Aliens for preorder. Decided to get those too. $29.99 each. Surprisingly when i preordered both they take off an extra $10 off! Bonus for me! Not sure how long its going for but that was a great deal if you ask me. I had to complete my Xmen collection :P.

Hey Jaydm, not sure if you are much of a gamer but you could probably get a bigger bang for the buck with a little more work. Blockbusters has a B2G1F deal on games right now. All you need to do is find 3 games with a TIV of $8 and higher and run it to EB and get a new game which should be worth $69.99+tax

you guys are horny mofos. i was just kidding. why would i pay for boobies? they are readily available online at anytime

I think we were all being silly and just saying yes lol... but seriously, wanna join in on the group buy? its boobies!!

Wow.. im shocked. Thats either a pricing error for bb or theyre just crazy. Great price after PM. I wouldnt mind getting if it was the remake with Wahlberg.

[shezbot]

I can't believe that Best Buy had such a ridiculous price. That was the deciding factor for me to pick it up. I was on the fence because I already own a copy on DVD, but I always feel the need to price match and make a statement on ludicrous prices.

[blahblehblah]

I wish they would price all their BD's at like $100 so i can make a killing with PMing. But even at $40 per, i can make a killing PMing with them.

[blahblehblah]

Sig update:

- Bank Job

And you got no hassles PMing SIG? Since SIG has three stores now I was wondering if a BB or FS would still balk at doing a PM. Sorry if this has been asked before.

Has anybody tried to PM SIG's other stuff like hardware?

I've only PM'ed blu-rays so far. The new Pacific Mall location makes it easier AND harder to PM though for me. It's great because their is a new location near Durham Region (and IN Toronto of course). The bad is it's Pacific Mall which for some reason *innocently shrugs* has a bad reputation.

PMing SIG is hassle free for me at least in the past 6 months i have been doing it. *touch wood* It just depends on which store you go to really

[jaydm]

Here's to hoping for a nice weekend sales..so far BB and FS have nothing goin on..

[ahsalloum]

I'm getting Blazing Saddles. Decent PQ based on reviews.

[shezbot]

The third "deal" at BBV is "Golden Compass" at $16.99

Ahh..ok. the dude told me $14.99 for some reason but i cant remember if it was the Golden compass. But for $16.99 i dont see that as too much of a deal.

[danman227460]

No deal. Wasn't Golden Compass on sale at 9.99 once?

This week is pretty much cold from FS/BB. All back to school stuff and lack of good releases. If the VIP sale is true, we might see some discounts but I expect no more than 10% off like usual.

I havent watched it yet.. but i will. Everyones got their own taste :D

[blahblehblah]

Ok, i guess that was a bit harsh.. i just felt the movie could have been better. All these movies tend to struggle with making it coherent and at the same time pleasurable for viewing (narnia pops into my mind as well that suffered the same fate).

Horrible movies would be Street Fighter: Legend of Charlie (yes, i intend to make fun of Chris Klein's acting), Dragonball: Evolution and Miss March

On a seperate note: Anyone bought Dollhouse: S1 and watched it yet? Were the reviews of this on par with it being a recommend/highly recommend?

My local shop said that these were Previously Viewed, not new. That doesn't seem right to me.

These sales are supposed to be on new copies correct? May have to try another ...

I love how all BBV's communicate with each other lol. These are the BRAND NEW ones. 100%. i saw them in two bbvs already. They have them in the front counter and not with the other blu rays. Yup i would call ahead just to make sure.

Well at least one the of the exact same brand/model home theather package is $150 less at SIG then at BB or FS. Mind you it is cash-only so maybe BB/FS might balk at PMing it.

But I was speaking more in general items anyway, once I got the 'not authorized dealer' bs. Thanks for the reply.

If people could bare one more question: How about PMing E-Outlet at BB/FS, no hassles there?

[danman227460]

YMMV. My local stores wouldn't PM E Outlet as they said it was an outlet, clearance center, refurbished seller etc.

There have been people who did get BB/FS to PM E Outlet so it's not like they don't do it but you have to find the right store with the right people.

if anyone is looking for teenage mutant ninja turtles box set on blu ray, the flea market guy is selling for $53 brand new. If you buy other blu rays im sure you can bargain. After all it is the flea marktet :razz:..He only had one left when i saw it though.

Compare at $65.99 at FS + taxes
or $69.99 at BB + taxes.

Its YMMV really on whether the stores honor the PMing to SIG. The typical response is "not authorized dealer" but i think it just depends on the amount of the discount really. I just quote them the non cash price each time since i think SIG has a cash and non cash price. No problems thus far *touch wood*. Which BB do you PM with?

I pmd a couple of movies from eoutlet to BB before. No hassles. But this was like 4-5 months ago. Not sure if its the same now.

Ditto, first time was tough as i think i was the first one to try and PM e-outlet downtown... subsequent times were easier because i think the CSR started to recognize me and didn't think it was worth the hassle to give me a hard time lol

Wouldnt it be free? How does SCOP work?...

[danman227460]

SCOP works like this:

If a non stickered item scans in at 13.99 but there is a shelf price of 10.99, you would get 10 dollars off or if it's less than 10, it's free.

The main issue is that MOST stores sticker their items so it is not suppose to work but most cashiers do not know this and still give it to people. Generally though most cashiers do not know about this program and it's hard to tell them about it. Wal Mart use to have it posted but I can't seem to locate them at my store any more.

Firs time I used it was to SCOP Saw. They had it listed at 13.99 but the shelf price was 10.99. I just grabbed the shelf price and bought it up to the front. Got it for 3.99 plus tax.

Ahhh ok.. i understand now. So if it stickered then it wont work but if its not stickered and it has a Shelf price that its lower than what its scanning then you get it for ten bux off.

A Blockbuster update, Watchmen is for sale at $19.99. Also traded in The Wrestler and Valkyrie for $10 and $9 respectively. Not bad seeing that I bought it from them for $15 each, so it was like a month long rental :)

I had that one time.. you might need to put in a promo code to get it to $1.99 even though it should default to it or just call their CS line and place the order there and cite shipping rate error and have them manually adjust it for you

Its... ok i guess... just nothing overtly exciting.

[mdc3000]

Considering it's one of the best sci-fi/horror movies ever made, I'd say yeah, it's worth watching.

SIG just doesnt learn. On another note, anyone find dexter season 2 or 3 cheap anywhere? :(

I recently bought Miracle and Dollhouse and i must say Miracle on blu-ray is awesome and Dollhouse is another good series from Josh Whedon. Anyone on the fence about these 2 should not be.. worth every penny :)

Is The Thing worth watching?

It was one of Toshiba's HD DVD offerings, but it must have gone OOS quickly so I never did get it. But it does appear to be one of the better ones.

Not sure if anyone is interested but i came across Fighting on blu ray at futureshop website for 18.99. Most likely a price error. Considering it sells for 29.99-34.99 everywhere else. Never watched the movie so im not sure if its any good.

this is a pre-order. Movie is released on Tuesday the 25th.
