I think they are way behind on those aren't they?

I meant "in addition to".

Hope so.
I'm waiting for it patiently.

Me, too. There are a few titles I've been biding my time for and am waiting for the sale. I hope we get a quantity update first so I don't miss out on anything.

Just noticed this on the SAE homepage:

March 1st - “Like” Screen Archives on Facebook and receive advance notice of a special sale to be announced soon!

I'm sure it wasn't there when I was browsing around yesterday, but I could be wrong. And there's no obvious sign of a "special" sale going on (from the homepage at least).

Could this be a TT Anniversary event?

I'm not on social media so perhaps someone who is could let us know if anything has appeared on FB yet.

Yup. Avatar 2, 3, & 4 were originally scheduled for December 2017, 2018, & 2019. When Disney moved Star Wars Episode 8 to December, Fox waited a few days and then basically announced that Avatar will be released when it is ready. No new date, haven't filmed a single frame, and last I heard, Cameron was still writing. So if they're gonna hold True Lies and The Abyss till Avatar's release, we might as well give up. Maybe 2019 for Abyss' 30th anniversary?

If that post was from 3/1 that was in regards to the sale they did for the FSM Superman film score CD Box set they had over a weekend.

They wouldn't be skipping a format, it would be a combo pack, blu-Ray+UHD

Okay. Thanks. Appreciate the info. I'm often on the SAE site but saw no mention of it.

Really hoping for a sale as there are so many great TT titles on my list.

I thought they were originally scheduled to start in 2015 and they just kept getting pushed back to those years you indicated.

It's been there for a few weeks. I mentioned it about a week or so ago that it may be reference to the anniversary sale. A few people responded saying they thought it too.

Sorry, man. Must have missed that.

oildude · 03-19-2016, 07:12 PM

Earlier this week TT was asked directly on their FB page if there will be a sale in March. The response was there are no plans at this time for a March sale.

Notice they did not rule out a future sale. SAE had a weeks long sale on most TT titles in December followed early this year by a 20% off coupon for an entire order for anything on their site including TT titles. We have already been the beneficiaries of more sales than ever before so I can understand if TT delays any sale or chooses not to hold one. Those anniversary sales were only on select titles. We all understand their anniversary sale the past two years was not guaranteed to be an annual event. Best to temper anticipation; maybe there is a sale in April but maybe not.

Still kinda on the fence about Used Cars guess that's going to have to change quickly.

I have been trying to update the low quantity alert in the first post with this information but my iPhone refuses to give me a cursor in the edit box when I tap my screen. This has happened to me sometimes on other posts I have tried to edit but this is the first time it has happened with the first post of this thread.

Unfortunately my home computer is under repair right now. I will PM a mod and ask them to do it. Not sure why my iPhone refuses to allow me to edit posts here sometimes.

I am curious if anyone else has experienced this with their smart phones when trying to edit a post?
