I missed this the last time. Wasn't it about the same price then?

Also, what is the shipping work out to?

RingOfHonor · 11-30-2014, 09:32 PM

I've never seen it this low personally and that includes shipping

Amazing price! I picked mine up off ebay for $23 last year, wish I would've held off a little longer.

waldo3125 · 11-30-2014, 09:43 PM

Great deal, picked a copy up for a friend of mine.

IronChefJebus · 11-30-2014, 10:10 PM

Geez, I thought it was cheap when I bought it last weekend for £11.17.

Joxx · 12-01-2014, 10:37 AM

A link in the OP would've been helpful. Assuming I found the right item on Amazon UK, I guess I missed the sale because it says 13.40 pounds before shipping. Oh well. I was just too busy with other stuff to get around to it.

Does Amazon UK only have prices like this around BF or do I need to keep watching for the sale to repeat? Actually, does Amazon UK even have a Black Friday given that Thanksgiving is a US holiday?

Very odd. I remember copying/pasting the link...

Your link must've been swallowed by this site.

If this set goes on sale again, hopefully you or someone will bump this thread.

BTW, I spent a little time searching Amazon UK for "3D Blu-Ray" to see what titles the UK has that the US doesn't. It was a lot less than I expected (and I've never even heard of several of the animated ones):

Frozen (3D)
Horrid Henry (3D)
Justin and the Knights of Valour (3D)
Malificent (3D)
Monster in Paris (3D)
Need for Speed (3D)
Ratatouille (3D)
Tarzan: The Legend Lives (3D)
Topcat: The Movie (3D)
Turtle's Tale, A: Sammy's Adventure (3D)
Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning (3D)

No 3D version anywhere:
x Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return (3D)
x Planes: Fire & Rescue (3D)
x Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy (3D)

What bums me out is when I ordered Malificent 3D from Amazon UK in a hurry, I almost grabbed Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventure for 6.00 pounds. Now it's no longer available except at 20 pounds. Bummer.

They have sales like that more than on Black Friday. I ordered on 10/20 for 8.33+3.08 shipping or $19.09 (still waiting on delivery). Amazon UK does have a lot of sales for Black Friday. They started doing that about 4 years ago.

tehill · 12-01-2014, 01:45 PM

I placed an order Sat. total was 17.17 including tax and shipping

RBBrittain · 12-01-2014, 02:27 PM

Blu-ray.com link (go to Amazon UK from there). It's now higher -- £13.21 before VAT refund & shipping -- but it's still cheaper than many of us got it for (and much cheaper than the U.S. Anthology has ever been -- same discs, slightly different packaging).

Just don't confuse it with the "5 Film Collection", which is cheaper but omits the STM Expanded, S II Richard Donner Cut & bonus discs. If you care enough about the series to buy Superman IV, you want the full set.

It's on NF streaming in 3D if you have that.

Snowmaker · 12-01-2014, 05:05 PM

I thought about it, but then I remembered that I have this and have yet to pop any of it in:

Blu-Dragon · 12-24-2014, 04:08 PM

Did anyone order this around 11/30 or so and receive it yet? My estimated arrival was 12/16 but it's still not here. I know it can take longer, so I was just figuring maybe others had ordered around the same time and maybe hadn't received it yet either?

Edit - Must be the power of posting. About 10 minutes after posting this the mailman arrives with the package. The shipping box was a bit banged up and he said that they found it at the post office and it looks like it had been there "lost" for a few days. The movie box itself was fine though.

TheWalkingDead · 12-24-2014, 04:36 PM

Oh, that exlains it.. this deal is from November... almost a month ago. Great job keeping up and managing the deal section

solovoyager · 12-24-2014, 05:03 PM

I'm surprised this wasn't moved to Region B deals since the moderators seem eager to do that nowadays.

MifuneFan · 12-24-2014, 05:15 PM

Now that you bumped it, it will be

Dylan34 · 12-24-2014, 05:57 PM

Is there any difference at all between the U.S. edition vs the UK edition ? Why is it always so much cheaper than the U.S copy?
