Worst place for good Blu-Ray deals? - Blu-ray Forum

JackDurden · 01-18-2009, 08:45 PM

I've never seen HMV post any good sales, and the other day I was in Rogers Video, their previously viewed Blu-Rays were not that far off from retail price.

never been to Rogers, sometimes HMV can be good but rarely. For example if you look down some threads you will see that HMV had TDK for 24.99 the day it launched (unfortunately for me the next day when I went it was back up to 29.99, so I did not buy it there)

Yeah, now TDK is 32.99 in most places, I waited until last week to pick up mine.

Apparently they also had Band of Brothers for 69.99 a while back, have been wanting to get that now for some time and now it's back to 89.99

Rogers Video isn't too bad, you just have to wait for the decent deals. Over the holidays, they had B2G1 on PV. Right now they're running a 25% off all PV discs. Also, they had some new discs (Castaway and Devils Rejects, etc) on for $14.99.

You're the second poster that fails at basic math when it comes to PV BDs @ Rogers Video. Here's a lesson for you, i'll type slow for you

"Wanted" I paid 32.99+taxes...It's currently on sale @ Rogers (PV copy) for $21 AND you get 25% off. It's already $11.99 cheaper than retail, take an additional $5 off, so a savings of $16.99....so 51% off? Yeah..that's not far off from retail price....

I don't see all the hate for HMV. Sometimes their prices are a bit high however they are pretty reasonable on catalogue titles. It bought Friday Night Lights for 26.99 which is the same as it was at Future and BB.

You're the first person who "files" at basic English.

Here, I'll type slow for you

The correct spelling is: F A I L S

The worst place I've seen is Barnes and Nobles. Nothing under MSRP.

Blockbuster, I swear that even when its a "deal" it is still more expensive than average retail.
