Biggest single Blu-ray purchase - Blu-ray Forum

a859057 · 07-28-2008, 05:38 PM

So I was on Amazon the other day, filling my shopping cart with Blu-rays since I hadn't purchased any in a while. By the time I reached checkout, my cart totalled 10 movies and $217.60 - guess I was further behind than I realized.

Anyway, it got me to wondering......

What is the biggest single purchase of Blu-ray movies that any of you other Blu-bloods have made?

I usually just pick one at a time. My wife would kill me if I try to get more than one at a time. Shoot she makes a big deal when I want to get one. I would grab more then one if the deal was right and they had good titles available, which that combination rarely happens. a while back I got 2 in the same week, it was a target sale that had a bunch of titles for 19.99.

When I first got into Blu I bought something like 15 BDs at one time.

saginawjuggalo · 07-28-2008, 06:08 PM

Back in the BOGO days, I bought 20 for $200 shipped.. Then later that week, I placed another hundred something dollar order... What can I say? I was new to Blu-ray back then.

The most I have bought in one day is 3 because Im only getting the titles I know I will watch over and over again. However I have Blow, L.A Confidential, and The Godfather(4 discs) so technically that will be my biggest day.

EvolutionCherry · 07-28-2008, 06:54 PM

My biggest was the resident evil high definition trilogy(my first completed franchise in BD).

bluJames · 07-28-2008, 07:10 PM

i would have to say six, by 2 different sellers here on the forums. 6 movies $85 shipped.

fredbalsodn · 07-28-2008, 07:10 PM

50.00is the mos ti have spend so far.

Beta Man · 07-28-2008, 07:25 PM

30 or so the day I got my first PS3.... three different retail store visits..... then I discovered the "hot deals" forum here....

Sith · 07-28-2008, 07:27 PM

I spent like $120.00 at frys the other day, but 9.99 was for a dvd of a Cult
concert for my wife...

Petra_Kalbrain · 07-28-2008, 07:44 PM

During our Boxing week here in Canada (Dec 26th - Dec 30th, sometimes longer) I bought a personal record of about 26 or 28 titles this past year. I can't remember the total, but I'm guessing that it was in the vicinity of $550.

PNF · 07-28-2008, 07:51 PM

single purchase?

I think it has to be with Amazon, buy 2 get 1, bought 6 and get to about $85~

But I have A LOT OF $40-60 purchases... :'(

MacDaddyOJack · 07-28-2008, 08:07 PM

I think my biggest was during an Amazon bogo. I spent about $75 and got 6 movies. The next closest was back during our Buy-a-thon days when we were trying to beat HD-DVD during important weeks. I bought four the day Transformers came out on HD-DVD.

When the BOGOs were going strong I think I dropped $260 at once and came away with well over 20 Blu-rays.

pvalley77 · 07-28-2008, 08:47 PM

Sigh.... I just spent $252 on this B2G1 sale at amazon

S.. but to be fair.. that order does include MSG4, so it's more like $193 on Blu's. The sad thing is that there are still about 40 on my "wanted" list, sooo I need to promptly win the lottery.

Seeking_Alpha · 07-28-2008, 09:04 PM

Mine is pretty modest. I spent 66 dollars on planet earth off amazon.

SoCalTiger · 07-28-2008, 09:41 PM

Most in a single transaction for me is still $50 for Planet Earth at BB.

Jesterkeeters · 07-28-2008, 09:51 PM

I spent $322.39 at Amazon today on Blu Rays
and $104.30 at xploited.com on Blu Rays also so that is probably my biggest ever and it'll be 2 good weeks before I'll be able to purchase anything else..LOL

theprophecy247 · 07-28-2008, 09:54 PM

i bought about 16 at one time

Morphine · 07-28-2008, 11:14 PM
