Amazon Deals...How Long Do They Last? - Blu-ray Forum

Airun · 01-28-2016, 04:51 AM

Can anyone tell me how long Amazon deals stay available? Like PAN and Jurassic World are on deal now. How can tell when the deal will be over?

SPIDERone · 01-28-2016, 04:56 AM

Honest answer.. it depends.

I believe most of these deal right now are price matching other places (Best Buy, Target). Some will stay matched as long as the other retail (BestBuy/Target) have it on sale, others might be below the price they can reasonably charge (meaning they might lose money on sales) and won't last long.

Gotham Season 1 was $10 at the same time the other items dropped.. but that only lasted a few hours while the others are still on sale.

If you want something, order it now. It generally wont last longer than a week.

Yup, it is price matching. Jurassic World is being sold on Bestbuy.com for $10 as well.

If its at a great price on Amazon (especially if that price seems too good to be true and its never been that low) and you want it, just buy now. He who hesitates loses!

Amazon gives you a price match guarantee if their price lowers within seven days of your purchase. You just contact customer service.

If an item is up for preorder on Best Buy for a lower price than Amazon, will they match that price if you contact them?

My father always told me "He who hesitates, masturbates" But he was talking about approaching women.

It just depends. The best and safest answer is this... If you see a deal that is amazing, and you want it, buy it. You never know how long it will last.

Considering this round of "sales" by Amazon is being done because of Target's movie sale currently going on, it'll be over whenever the Target one is. I'd suggest if you have a Target near by to just go there.
