For other Canadians info, I picked my most recent order from SAE at my local postal outlet today. It was shipped April 20, and was out for delivery yesterday but I was at work, so had to go get it today. Was 16 discs, customs label lists it accurately as $211.20US (that doesn't include the postage) I was not charged anything by Canada Customs. My order last month also arrived without customs or duty as well.
FYI one of those hot selling copies of "The Seven Ups" was in this box.

I decided to take the plunge and pick up a few titles from the Twilight Time website, including ten from the "10 for $115 Sale." I realize that at least some of these titles likely will be sold at lower prices in the future, but I would kick myself if any of them got away from me. I could probably easily pick another 10 from the "10 for $115" sale, but these were my top picks:

Don't want to jinx it, but I hope to be able to get a copy of the Twilight Time release of Peyton Place, as it's highly unlikely there will be a UK release of it.

Just received mine along with eight other FOX licensed titles from SAE few days ago. Apparently the transfer is excellent!

Best as I can tell, TwilightTimeMovies just extended the $10 for 115 sale to almost all 14.95 titles -- I see approx 111 on the list, but I have double checked everything yet. So far I can see Cutter's Way and Eureka aren't included, but still checking on the rest

Also new individual code for Three Coins in the Fountain which will stack with the above deal
SAVE MORE! Use coupon code Coins to save an additional $5 off your total purchase when you have at least $50 in your cart including this title. Expires May 17th, 2020

That's what I was waiting for. I picked up what will hopefully be the last ten titles I'll purchase during this ongoing sale.

hariseldon · 05-10-2020, 06:16 PM

More details at the advance Press Release
https://www.hometheaterforum.com/com.../#post-4865419

Press Release is upcoming from Twilight Time saying a full new sale will start tomorrow at least on the TwilightTimeMovies.com site. I don't have an email yet, but

Starting May 11 (or later May 10), all remaining stock will be priced at 3.95, 6.95, 11.95

TwilightTimeMovies.com will close permanently June 30th and all remaining stock will be turned over to ScreenArchivesEntertainment.com on July 1, 2020

It's unknown right now whether SAE will match the prices in this phase of the sale though HTF seems to think it won;t, but as has been expected and speculated for 6-9 months -- Business climate for discs and Nick's Death was the end of Twilight Time for all intents.

MovieDood · 05-10-2020, 06:19 PM

Home Theater Forum is reporting the sale is exclusive to Twilight Time Movies website and prices will go into effect later this afternoon

noirjunkie · 05-10-2020, 06:29 PM

Oh, come on.

Did I read this wrong? Where does it say this is a one-day sale?

No, there was a one-day sale of expanded 10 for $115 titles, then as soon as I locked in my order, they announce they're dropping prices on everything.

abudgell · 05-10-2020, 06:42 PM

I think we all saw the writing on the wall, but I can't help feel a twinge of sadness reading this. Thank you, Twilight Time. You made this classic movie lover very happy and enhanced my film library immeasurably.

If the 14.95 titles are lowered to 11.95, then all the 11.50 titles are still marginally cheaper unless you were making and order with additional lower priced items included.

The expanded 11 for 115 has only been up a few hours anyway though it still seems odd to even start that one if you knew about the 2nd one. I guess it's TBD whether the 11 for 115 will be continued or modified when the new price points start.

Depending on the mixture of items you could still end up ahead if they stop the 10 for 115 part of the sale.

That is true, but I wouldn't have ordered so many. Some were just to get the 10/115 deal to activate. Plus, I did order a $14.95 title and 2 $8.95 titles that would probably lower to $11.95 and $6.95 respectively.

Eh, whatever. C'est la vie, je suppose...

Bradsdadg · 05-10-2020, 07:02 PM

I think it is pretty close either way. The 10/$115 may still be the way to go. Depending on how much the $14.95 drop. If they hold them at $11.95 then it is not much difference

It is!

New sale prices are 11.95 per disc. 10 for $115 makes them $11.50 each.

Oh it started already? That was fast!

RCRochester · 05-10-2020, 07:07 PM

Well it looks like I'll have to put in another sale order just to make sure I grab all the ones I am interested in before they sell out. I watched Warlock on the free app Tubi the other day hoping I would hate it and I wouldn't have to buy it, but nope, on to the Wishlist it went.

Bradsdadg · 05-10-2020, 07:08 PM

The 10/$115 selection seems already to be cut way down.
