Done! But I'm still hoping for $65.99 plus a $5 GC from Best Buy again.

According to the ad posted in the hot deals forum BBY has it advertised for $64.99 next week.

I will not pay $65 for any television season, not even my beloved TNG. For Star Trek OS or TNG, I'm willing to go as high as $50 a season, but even then it's a stretch.

I'm banking on BB doing the $49.99 release week thing again.

I believe they had S1 for $59.99 during release week with a $5 trade-in and save... but that was a unique circumstance. They also had a $10 off on your next purchase when you ordered online.

I don't think either of those two deals are in effect this time.

Man. I just cannot see myself dropping that much cash on a single season.

The review is up.

I think the advancements in video/audio quality justify roughly that price. 70 - 80ish. Nothing more though. Anything more is highway robbery. I can't wait for the rest of the seasons Of course pricing is certainly a matter of opinion. I'm a hardcore trek fan. You won't catch me pirating it, and I will pay for a reasonable asking price.

Correct, it was never $49.99 in-store. I sold my $10 off coupon to a friend, so the set ultimately only cost me $49.99 plus tax. I'll do $64.99, but I do wish there was at least a $5 trade-in, if not the $10 online GC.

$59.99? try $79.99 in Canada and that is the best deal right now! can't even order from the States because with duty, it will be almost the same.

the few space screenshots from the review look pretty good to me so i have no complaints yet about their work. my only complaint is how much Trek has cost me in the past month. this, the 150 Year Book, the Haynes Klingon Tech manual, TNG/Doctor Who crossover comics - things may not cost anything in the future but Trek is costing me a lot right now!!!!

I'm actually surprised that Best Buy is pricing Season 2 higher than the first season. That and the fact that it's not the featured TV release of the week in the ad, but that's fairly meaningless. I'll still likely get it to show my continued support of the restorations, but $59.99 would have been nice.

I did my part by buying season one to show CBS my interest getting these restored, but I just cannot justify paying $400-$500 for any TV show.

$20-30 seasons are just about right for me for most shows, and I'm willing to go as high as $40-$50 for TNG, but that's absolute top tier.

I'm sure you already know this, but with all of the restoration work being done on this show, this shouldn't be treated like a normal show. $20-$30 is a decent price point for regular shows, but a premium price for this is to be expected.

I'm not saying you have to buy it now of course, although I don't expect this to drop much anytime soon. Season 1 has yet to drop yet, even with Black Friday being last week.

I think I'm going to wait. Spent way too much lately, and at least five more blus I really want this week and next week. Of course I may go to the Theater Event tomorrow night and it get me jonesin' to pick it up...

Yeah, I know. That's why I'm still debating it.

Plus I just threw down on the $130 deal for the OS. $200 in Trek is a lot to absorb all at once!
