"Fool To Cry", I believe it was.

Well, I think it's time to be hittin' the ol' dusty trail to Wallyworld.

It's possible, but I remember how long it took Planet Earth to come down before finally got it and besides $79 (free ship, 2nd day (for prime members)) isn't bad, but I guess anything can happen...like you said, perhaps during BF ads, ltd qtys, but you could be waiting a while for the price to drop. I've seen Amzn keep the pre-order price up for a while well after the release date however...

Just got my shipping confirmation from Barnes & Noble.com for my 9-disc set, best $45.79 I ever spent. Sure I won't have it on launch day, but I can wait until next week.

Y'know, I've checked the Wal-Mart website many times, when looking for price comparisons, and sometimes, there's 2 or 3 dollars difference...but there's also been times where their prices are significantly higher than Amazon. That's kinda strange, don't ya think?

I did get a good deal from them about 2 months ago: the "Die Hard" set for $20 (Fry's wanted $47).

Still haven't gotten mine and I'm in northern Illinois.

ranitasus · 09-16-2011, 04:11 AM

I'm excited to see pictures if anybody posts any

nmycon · 09-16-2011, 04:14 AM

At long last... it's SEPTEMBER 16th!

About 8 hours until The Complete Saga will be in my hands!

(Then 6 hours of school

)

Not as often as you might think. Things that sell out are more obscure titles that only have one or two copies sent to places like FYE and Best Buy.

Or perhaps within the confines of a bigger city....

But for 98% of the world, you will be able to walk into a Best Buy or Walmart and buy a copy of Star Wars on Blu Ray.

I know what they get. It's a Limited Edition original Star Wars original trilogy on blu-ray. I asked how is this limited edition different from the regular one. And they explained that the limited edition is a blu-ray package which includes 4, 5, and 6 of the movies when they were released in the theater - without all those new changes that Lucas made over the years. They said it's 1080p but just DTS-HD 5.1. I guess that's a good prize for the people that aren't crazy about that Hayden ghost or that new song at the end of Jedi?

There'd better be more than a few hundred of those floating around

Well, I just got home from getting the Complete Saga from Walmart. It rang up at $89.99, but me and the two other guys

that were there told them that it was $79.99 everywhere else, including their own website. After a few minutes of haggling, they gave it to us for $79.96. They said that it might drop on it's own in a few minutes.

The Boba Fett poster is 23" x 35", a lot bigger than I expected. They only had about 20 or 30 of the posters laying out. I'm not sure if that's all they had or not.

Sorry, I don't have a camera phone.

About to put in The Phantom Menace.

KS76 · 09-16-2011, 04:31 AM

Just picked mine up at Wal-Mart, can't wait to rock out to these tonight- Complete Saga for me, will be watching 1-6 in sequence.
