What's the most you've paid for a blu-ray? - Blu-ray Forum

morningtoke · 06-25-2015, 01:03 AM

$52.98 brand new with slip cover. I managed to sell off some slips of the Cat Returns that I nabbed at work for $22 a pop on eBay, so I paid it with that.

L.J. · 06-25-2015, 01:05 AM

Paid $54.99 for this.

Blu Titan · 06-25-2015, 01:06 AM

$60 for Pierrot Le Fou...way too much. That movie REALLY sucks.

mja345 · 06-25-2015, 01:07 AM

I think I paid $45.00 for the OOP "Army of Shadows" Criterion disc. Paid about the same for the OOP Twilight Time disc of "Body Double". Both were pretty good deals considering they're OOP. I've been contemplating shelling out a pretty good amount for the OOP "Last Year at Marienbad" blu, as that's one I really want.

Can't say I've seen that one. What was so bad about it?

Well, it is a TT release, so a high price tag is expected

Single movie or box set? I guess my $70 for blufans GOTG Ultimate Edition for a single disc. For a box set I think I spent $90 on Star Wars the clone wars complete series.

I LOVE it! Would pay $100 if I had to for a copy of this one...

Its hard to explain...the characters just talk nonsense all the time. There is no plot. I own other Goddard and like them....but this one bored me to tears.

Thankfully I cut my loss at $60....I could have purchased some real movies with that money

ryanilano · 06-25-2015, 01:16 AM

$50

deltatauhobbit · 06-25-2015, 01:16 AM

Got it off eBay for around $80. Didn't start knowing about all the limited releases until well after this was sold out.

2nd place goes to this 3D import of Resident Evil: Damnation for around $60 which is retail, not eBay prices. I love me some Resident Evil CGI films, unfortunately, it was never released here in 3D, only in Japan as a limited edition thing.

bluRazor · 06-25-2015, 01:18 AM

Wife Paid 45$ For An unopened Copy of the third man for my b day before prices got out of hand. I think that's the only time I've paid more than retail for a release. After watching it on netflix (mailed disc) for the first time I kicked my self for not grabbing it when it was on amazon for 16.99$ or whatever.

It was a little much at the time. Right afterwards, the UK edition went on sale for lower than 30 bucks.

Probably $60 for the Kubrick Collecton, but I consider that a great value.

Davidian · 06-25-2015, 02:04 AM

Do steelbooks count? If so I paid 300 for the Ironman Futureshop steel.

Prolly wouldn't do it again :/

DanTheMan · 06-25-2015, 02:06 AM

However much it was release day, which IIRC was close to $200. But......I only really paid $60 OOP after great use of MovieStop store credit that I saved up just for that.

SeanJoyce · 06-25-2015, 02:11 AM

Pre-ordered the Limited Edition of Nightbreed for $49.19 as a blind buy.

All I can say is that I'd be really pissed if forced to spend what most other people did.

StingingVelvet · 06-25-2015, 02:13 AM

For one movie it would be any random Twilight Time title, which are $35 shipped.

For a set, probably the Bond 50 set, which I got when it was around $150 right after I got back from living in Europe and wanted to start my BD collection.

There are movies I would pay up to $50 or so for if they were out of print or really classy editions, but none of them have motivated me to do so yet. Criterion's Le Cercle Rouge is somewhat tempting, but at $100 or so it's a whopper.

Petra_Kalbrain · 06-25-2015, 02:15 AM

Upcoming BluFans Guardians Of The Galaxy steelbook at $60 USD (likely be about $72 in my native funds when all is said and done).

TripleHBK · 06-25-2015, 02:29 AM

$55.98

$45.48

$74.99

$39.95

$38.99

These would be the top of the list. Plenty of other Twilight Time and other films fall in the low $30 area though.
