Does Amazon UK have Boxing Day sales? - Blu-ray Forum

I'd love to pick up some European films that are Region A compatible, and I was wondering if deals can be had next week for Boxing Day!

Yeah, usually the January sales start on Boxing Day. Sometimes they start on Christmas Eve, particularly online.

Edit: Actually just realised it was Amazon UK (I just skimmed and seen UK at first!) specific your question but the above would apply to them as well.

Thanks David! I guess I should be checking in everyday at A UK to see when the deals actually start. I really want to broaden my small collection and more specifically those releases that aren't readily available in North America.

I've seen websites where the deals start before Christmas!

Once they have past the point where deliveries won't arrive by the 25th, they start dropping prices!

Not saying Amazon do this (this might, I don't know) but it's worth looking around.

I'll definitely be having a browse on xmas and boxing day. I'm sure they and others, will be trying to claw back losses from trade missed due to the poor weather.

Same in Canada, although we did actually see some BF sales here for the first time.
