[Mr Hand]

Until August 16th, Amazon.fr has an offer on some Fox/Pathé/Europa/MGM titles, individually priced at 19.95€ :

• * between 2 and 5 Blu-ray : 20€ discount
  * between 6 and 9 Blu-ray : 50€ discount
  * between 10 and 19 Blu-ray : 100€ discount
  * beyond 20 Blu-ray : 225€ discount

Being handled by Fox, most of these titles are Region B-locked.

One thing I'm not sure about is the right to make several 2 BR-orders : if it's possible, then you can see the offer as a "1 bought, 1 offered" sale, which is always cheaper than any other combination (if shipping cost is excluded).

I'm sure you can place as many 2 BD orders as you want. The problem is, unless you're in France you get killed by the shipping costs. I might make an order for two of the following three: Dances with Wolves, Open Range and Walk the Line (all are region free and not released in the US) plus two I've had in my cart: Bound and Roman de Gare. It brings the average down to high instead of outrageous.

If you can pick 20 movies or do it as a group they are 155,60€ or 10.97$$ each SHIPPED!! Thats awesome

You're right, it's more complicated than I thought, here's a table with the mean cost per BD in euros after discount, excluding shipping. The most interesting combinations excluding shipping are 20, 21, 22 then 2 or 10 BR, with a cost under 10€ per BR.

I think people buying from outside the European Union will not be charged for the VAT (19.6%), so for them there is an additional discount on the final price (divide it by 1.196).
For European buyers, the VAT should be adjusted to the rate of their own country.
