So California Blockbuster Closing!!! Walnut 91789 - Blu-ray Forum

mikejet · 03-26-2010, 05:46 PM

Just a heads up for Southern California people, the Blockbuster at Lemon and La Puente in Walnut CA(91789) is CLOSING!! They have a huge inventory sale. I have not had a chance to go in yet but there are probably some good deals.

Hope your Blockbuster closing goes better than ours. Discount on new blus on day 1 of liquidation was 10%. Discount on last day of liquidation was 10%. I don't think they sold 1 new blu the whole time. At the time you could get the X-MenTrilogy anywhere for $30-40. They sold each individually for $30.

Good luck.

That sounds terrible. I'll try to check it out today and see what prices look like.

The Blockbusters in my area in Southern California have pretty much all closed down a few years ago. And lol mikejet with Pedo-Bear.

When my Blockbuster closed about 2 yrs. ago, it was under the auspices of "moving to a new location" so they didn't sell anything.

Surprise! They are still closed.

My local Blockbuster just closed a few weeks ago. I walked in during their closing sale. Most Blu-rays were $13.99 or $16.99 used and in a beat-up rental DVD sized case. I wasn't tempted. Amazon can give me brand new discs and packaging delivered to my door at prices not much different than that.

I was sorry to see them close though. I had rented from them for years.

One of our Blockbuster in my hometown closed, then open shop two weeks later, because of popular demand -

. True Story.

I live in SoCal, BTW.

One of the blockbusters in my town closed about 2 months ago but they wasn't selling any blu's they were just giving them to the other blockbuster in town so i was disappointed. But i did take a bunch of those cardboard backers to maybe put in a frame or something don't know yet. And also i bought Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles season 1 on dvd for 3 dollars. I know it sucks it wasn't on blu but i couldn't pass it up.

Checked it out last night. Most are 12.99-16.99 and 30% off that price. They had a decent selection of titles but you get their crappy DVD case.
