Yes its all due to the sale on amazon but it looks fantastic in these charts.

goodstuff · 03-06-2007, 07:51 PM

Yeah, there is just no way to resist this sale, especially with the Fox titles.

Damon Payne · 03-06-2007, 08:15 PM

I'm resisting so far, which fox titles are you picking up?

dobyblue · 03-06-2007, 08:27 PM

Anyone know how long the sale is going to last? If I can get my tax rebates I might be picking up Into the Blue and S.W.A.T.

Kingdom Of Heaven, The Transporter and Alien Vs. Predator. I wouldn't have picked those up at the $28+ price point, but at $19, it's almost a no-brainer for me.

some say it's a week, or even less, so don't wait too long

I ordered
Chain Reaction
The Transporter
Planet of The Apes
Worlds Fastest Indian
Broken Arrow
Entrapment
Ladder 49
The Sentinel
Fifth Element

I wish there were sales like this more often.

The Amazon Gold Box RSS feed says it expires Mar 27, 2007, but I'm not sure how reliable that information is.

Anybody know if the 10% code applies?

And who is eligble for the code?

And what's the code again?

Yes, the 10% extra discount still applies.

Anyone who orders three eligible (most are) BD titles at once becomes eligible for the 10% for all subsequent orders.

The whole process was automatic for me. I didn't have to enter a code. Stick three titles into your cart and go through to last step before the actual purchase and see whether the promotion discount shows up.

You had to qualify for that 10% off before the end of last year (Dec 31 06).

I thought they extended it to the end of this year.

The duration for the individual is one year from their first purchase, is it not?

Gary

The Big Blue · 03-07-2007, 05:17 PM

They extended the timeframe for the 10% off. I'm not sure when the offer first started but say someone qualified on Nov 5 06. Now they get the 10% off through Dec 31 07 instead of Nov 5 07. Unfortunately the timeframe to make a qualifying purchase and get in on the deal was not extended.

So if I made a 3-disc order now, I don't qualify?
