I just got a PS3. What is the best place to buy the movies?

Not Best Buy, from what everyone here seems to do, is purchasing the movies from Amazon.

Enjoy your PS3

I use Amazon.com... Most Blu-Rays are around $20 and free shipping for >$25. Sometimes other places have better deals, but I don't like price hunting that much.

Also check if your local blockbuster has a good blu-ray selection. Mine just got a ton in (for rentals).

AMAZON

best buy at 20$ is better then waiting for it through the mail

I rather see the movies the same day rather then shop online

I wish there was a Fry's near me. I am in DC and the closest one is still many states away.

I use Amazon and Best Buy. I don't like the prices at Best Buy actually so I am trying not to go there so much anymore.

Average E-bay/Amazon used price is $14 shipped.

I would recommend buying some of the LOT auctions, then trading/selling off the titles you don't want.

When you buy one, make sure it's in excellent condition, is not scratched (blu-ray is very resilient, which makes buying used safer), and comes with the box and internal slip cover/materials.

You'll be able to watch the movie and sell it off for close to what you paid.

Also, scan this board and AVS for special promotions by different websites. You can often get new discs for close to an average of around $14, too. Some of them are very legit offers by sites like deepdiscount.com, Amazon, and more. Some people also suggest saving money by using Google checkout -- something I haven't tried just yet.
