Are there any blu-ray's that you want to own but never seem to drop in price? - Blu-ray Forum

DanTheMan · 12-16-2013, 06:25 AM

Up until recently, Schindler's List. That was a royal pain in the a** waiting for a ~$17.99 price drop.

Ones that I'm still waiting for:
Heavyweights
Adventures in Babysitting
Avatar 3D
The Darkest Hour 3D
Shrek: The Whole Story

You and me both man. I'd place this film in the same category as other "beloved" films including, Wizard of Oz, Casablanca, King Kong, Gone With The Wind...all of those have been available for 10 bucks (or less) It's hard for me to believe that public demand for IAWL is that much different than the other mentioned titles. However, the studios must know their market...right?

Berserk The Golden Age Arc I and II

chris_sc77 · 12-16-2013, 06:32 AM

Tons of criterions and shout factory titles.
I would buy so many if they were cheaper .
Also waterworld and the blu seasons of an idiot abroad.

kumo82 · 12-16-2013, 06:43 AM

An Idiot Abroad season 1-3 blu-rays are like around 12GBP in amazon.co.uk or zavvi. You can check them out.

AGH · 12-16-2013, 06:49 AM

The Odd Couple at the $14.99 price point. It should be $9.99 or lower.

I just wanna watch 'em already!

Same here!

Really wish it would hit $99 at some point.

Iron Man 3. I refused to pay $25 even though I liked it more than alot of people have. But it's been stubbornly hovering around the $25-$30 range ever since. Was hoping for a black friday deal but didn't find one. I'll keep waiting and I'll find it eventually.

I agree with that one. Waiting for this to reach 6 bucks new or used.

I got Iron Man 3 at Wal-Mart on release day for $19.96.

nashcameronn · 12-16-2013, 01:14 PM

Tarantino XX

Always sits at around $80. Big thanks to my brother who's getting it for me for Christmas.

I'll go $15 tops for new and $10 for used. Patience will pay off.

This one. Wasn't even on sale on release day, except for in-store Walmart and I don't have one in my area. Sucks Disney had to pick up distribution from Paramount, now that means it'll probably never be cheap.

If you don't mine buying used blu-rays, Family Video have it for only $7.99 or 3 for $21.00. I've bought many used blu-rays from Family Video, and I have never had any problems with them. I've saved a lot of money buying used blu-rays.

My Wal-Mart not only had the BD/DVD for $19.96, but the BD/DVD/UV for $22.96. I wanted the HDX version so I had no problem paying the extra $3 for it. It was worth it IMHO especially to get that gold slipcover. It's not Iron Man, but it's better than Iron Man 2.

that cuz amazon had sellers locked to "authorized dealers only: which agree to not lower the price..

that restriction was lifted on IM3 today! already down to 17.99

PS i was waiting for the exact same reason

That's about my price point on that set too, although I might grab it around $125, as $25 per season for Blu-Ray isn't that bad.

I ordered The Twilight Zone: The Complete Series for $148 earlier this year, and it's one of the best purchases in my collection. The Blu-ray picture quality is so much better than that of the DVD box set that it's unbelievable.

Yeah, $64.xx was a sweet deal.

For me, I have a couple of BDs that won't hit my mark - Master and Commander digibook (> $15) and Ole Bull: Violin Concertos (> $24)
