Barnes and Noble Criterion sale
This is for the Aussie buyers that were hoping to buy during the B&N 50% off sale but have noticed the ridiculous shipping charges on the new site. A poster on the UK forums has worked out that the increase in shipping rates is down to blu rays being treated like 'book/VHS' and hence incurring shipping rates of $7.49 per order + $5.49 per item. They should be falling under 'CD/DVD', for which the shipping rates are the same as on the previous site, $7.49 per order + $0.99 per item.
So basically if you want to purchase during this sale, best to fire off an email to B&N about the above, the more people that do it, the more likelihood they will fix the glitch before the sale is over.
