Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Theatrical Versions) - April 6, 2010

[refnulf]

Ordered the 3 movies when it first dropped to $7.99, received the items 2-3 days after. So I'm happy with that bit.

Me too. I got them on saturday and watched them all this weekend. No lines, no hurry, no stress and $7.99 each is a great deal anyway you cut it.

I went to WM at midnight for RDR, Batman Begins, and I, Robot, and that was the extent of my BF in store shopping. It really sucks that so many orders were cancelled, if mine gets cancelled I'll be mad as hell. I don't think it will, but you never know.

I had a really bad feeling about this to begin with ever since that deal went live. I ordered all three at 7.99 ea on Amazon with Prime shipping. Unfortunately it didn't ship that way so my order got screwed. Amazon was nice enough to compensate me by giving me some promotions on future orders. I will be receiving all three on Tues. and glad I decided to keep my order.

I just got an Email back from Amazon about why my order wont ship until after christmas, and their response was that they are preparing it for shipment and it should be here by Dec. 30th. WHAT??????????? I realize that it wont be here till then but my only problem is that if you order the three movies now they will ship in 7 - 13 days. Hmmmmm I guess that its just a coincidence that they are back up to 12.99 too. I hate when a company tries to give me the run around. I would rather them just not respond at all.

Hello from Target.com,

Unfortunately, due to the high demand for the following item it is no longer available from any of our sources.

- The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy (6 Discs) (Blu-ray)

Please note that this item was listed in our 2-Day Sale ad as “quantities limited; no rain checks.” We have cancelled this item from your order and can't say for sure when it might be back in stock. If you are still interested in purchasing the item, which would be at the regular price, please check back every once in a while to see if it's available.







Good thing I ordered the individual copies from Amazon when they were $7.99. I'm sorry but that is poor service on Targets part.

Complete and utter contempt on target's part towards its customers. Simply outrageous. If you were burned by target please call them to complain at 1-800-591-3869. Demand that they honor the price. Target and target dot com has lost another customer. WTG

Delivery estimates is 12/30 to 1/12. When you go to Amazon and search for them, they each say usually ships within 7 to 13 days. That doesnt make sense at all to me. I sent Amazon an Email. Is anyone else having this problem??

I ordered them and already received my copies. I doubt I'll even open them and watch them - really only liked part 2, and the theatricals are pretty awful compared to the extended versions. But for 7.99 each I figured I could at least own them just in case.

I tell you what send your copies to me, and then in a month when I get mine ill send them to you.

[Blu-Runner]

Pretty sure Target never really intended to sell the whole trilogy at 7.99 anyways. Sucks though, they should honor the orders placed but of course they reserve the right.

Whoah, the whole trilogy? That had to be a mistake. Obviously wasn't following this thread...

Update: Just tracked it and it's now out for delivery! A day early and they're finally here. Whew!

Nice! I stayed home and played GT5 on Black Friday, but congrats to those that got it.

[dukerock12]

waiting out side for three hours in the freezing rain + scoring 3 trilogy boxsets for 25 bucks= totally worth it

[high def ho!]

The target I went to didnt have boxsets when they opened so they gave me the 3 single disc blus for 7.99 total. But no digital copies, which i use regularly due to crazy traveling. Anybody get digital copies they would be willing to give up? PM me, I would pay btw Thanks.
