Why Heroes is soo expensive? - Blu-ray Forum

-Sandro- · 05-07-2009, 12:48 AM

It's unbelievable the price compared to DVD. I can't find a reason. They think they're selling gold?

I wondered that. That just doesn't make sense to me. I bough the HD-DVD version of season 1 brand new for 9.99 plus tax -- that's what I call a deal!

If you can order them off of Amazon, the Marketplace has Season 2 under $20 and Season 1 around $30.

I got a used copy of both season at Movie Stop on Blu .
Season One was 45.99
Season Two was 28.99

and I save 10% with my Edge card.

the dvd version was originally $50-$60... that's why.

I got the Heroes Blu-ray Franchise Collection from Amazon back in December for $77.99.

I find the price for the Heroes Blu's still fair. There are other series that are more expensive (price per episode) on Blu, like Firefly for example.

These are some of the best looking blu-rays out there. They give the tv show Lost blu-rays a run for there money. I think they are worth it especially if you have a tv that has good blacks, which make the colors just pop out like 3D.

Watching the screenshots of the reviews, I can't see such a perfect video quality that justifies the prices

SquidPuppet · 05-07-2009, 05:53 PM

Its $3.65 per hour. That is a fantastic deal.

The Incredible Hulk is on sale right now for a mere $15.99 ($8.50 per hour)

I'd say Heroes is a steal

Wrong.

-Sandro- · 05-07-2009, 09:52 PM

All new

Amazon $66.99
Axelmusic $88.44

Ebay $42.99

Heroes 2:
Amazon $39.99

I'm really disappointed with Axelmusic, what are they thinking with those prices?? They're always been Amazon's alike but those are unbelievable

You think for that price, he could spare the $3 shipping.
