Two of the most gorgeous cases you will ever see.

I will never understand what people have against digipaks. I love them.

Well, you helped me get there, so thanks.

iScottie sold me my last OOP and just giving transaction feedback was not good enough. Shop @ Scottie, everyone!

Amazon started allowing "promoted" sellers to appear as the "main looking" seller some years back, and if you don't know about it can be very confusing and aggravating for sure.
btw: when a product is ONLY available through third party sellers there will be this phrase Note: This item is only available from third-party sellers right near the bottom of the listing. So this phrase lets you know amazon proper truly does not have stock of whatever product it is. Notice the A Room With A View listing does not show this phrase.
good luck!

Thanks, I found the link way down the page on the right side in the "Other Sellers on Amazon" section. They sure make it hard to buy from them!

I also got shipping notification of my Les Blank set from ebay/BN, it actually is just a pre-shipment notification sent to USPS, so just a bit closer, but they may still cancel it somehow.

Wow! Congrats!

I stopped by my local B&N on my lunch hour and grabbed the following three:

The Brood
Kwaidan
Mulholland Dr.

I had Pale Flower in my hands to purchase, but set it back down, knowing I'd be back to grab In Cold Blood and Ikiru later in the month.
