Amazon's Irresistible Criterion Deals, Pt. II

[Stalker101]

Unfortunately Philadelphia Story is no longer $18.96 it seems..

[DaBargainHunta]

They keep adding Criterions to this sale...

UncleBuckWild's post has quadrupled since yesterday. When I first came across it, it was only The Blob (which I ordered) and a handful of others.

I'm supposed to be getting it Friday (along with an add-on item), but my order hasn't even shipped yet. Not sure how that's gonna work.

You do realize that a lot of these aren't even 50% off... you could save more waiting until the next B&N sale.

What are you talking about? These are 52.6% off the retail price.

You want us to wait another two months? Oh, hell no! Ain't got no time for that.

As for Philadelphia Story, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown...

Those two have temporarily gone outta stock. So the current prices are of marketplace sellers.

They usually sit on your order till the very end if there's a fulfillment center nearby.

Chances are high it would be delivered by tomorrow.

I've had numerous pre-orders shipped in this manner.

They generally ship it the day before the shipping date. So if you ordered Wednesday, they would ship it out tonight and would be delivered tomorrow.

Funny, Amazon has the list price at $22.99... making them only about 17% off

Yeah, let's use sarcastic rolling eyes and actively discourage good members like UncleBuckWild from posting awesome deals like this that benefit us all - that'll sure teach him!

Learn the ways of Criterion you must, young padawan. before posting like this.

Criterion titles are MSRP'd at $29.95, $39.95 or $49.95 depending on how packed the title is ($39.95 is by far the most common). That means that anything below $20 is more than 50% off for most titles, irrespective of what Amazon claims the list price is.

Eyes Without A Face is $20.96 on Amazon at the moment.

The Ballad of Narayama - $17.97

The MSRP for most of these Blu rays is $39.99

[Stanis]

Picked up Godzilla, been waiting a year+ for a decent price drop

[jimjimmyjones85]

Is that the lowest it's been? I remember one really good price drop I missed a while back.

Given your name, your detective work should really be better.

[sb5]

You’re off the case, Promo_Cop! Your reckless ways have cost the taxpayers hundreds of dollars in Blu Ray discounts!

This link will indicate whether this deal is giving you the lowest price at Amazon on a specific Criterion (most, yes).

I've filtered that to show only Criterions, but you can apply other studios and other filters to it.

Best price you're going to get at Amazon/Walmart barring a price error. Best price you're likely to get anywhere at all for new Criterions (without any tricks) is still B&N during their 50% sales with member discount or Criterion's own sales if you buy enough over time to factor in the reward.

The $1 is probably worth it for most people without having to pay for that membership/spread out the spending.

Lady Vanishes just dropped to $18.96. Don't think I'll be able to resist that one. Especially since I don't think I'll ever get lucky enough to find that Hitchcock set in stores during the sale.
