I was really surprised that across Arrow, Kino, Shout, etc. that I didn't spent one dollar. I'm also starting to notice more sales saying something like "up to 50% off" and the like rather than an across the board 50% off sale which also makes them less appealing when you realize the things you want are nowhere near a great deal.

50% off sales sound great until you realize they keep raising the SRP.

Definitely, it's pretty obvious that SRP is set with future sales in mind which is why we get new 4K discs set at $59.95 lol

New email from Grindhouse:

BLUE UNDERGROUND SALE

The sale starts midnight (beginning of day) on Monday 2-17 and ends at midnight (end of day) on March 2nd. All times are EST.

The sale is 50% off MSRP and will include almost the entire Blue Underground line including all 2024 releases. 4K UHD, Blu-Ray and DVD.

We will be placing multiple orders throughout the sale and will be shipping orders as stock arrives. All orders with BU sale titles may take 1-2 weeks to ship. All other orders will not be effected and will ship without delays.

Economic woes? Greed? Tin-foil had not screwed on tight enough? Hole in the Cosmic Frame? What?!

Because physical media is increasingly becoming a niche market as more big box retailers give up on the format. At the same time, as more boutiques see more buyers waiting for 50% off sales they are increasing the MSRP with that in mind. That's the reality.

You may want to remove the sale name/description to avoid being deleted for being “political” (which Oscilloscope sale posts have run into in the past).

Nosferatu31 · 02-17-2025, 02:03 AM

Not a good business decision. Either way I never heard of them and I won't be supporting them.

cheez avenger · 02-17-2025, 02:29 AM

Ordered a few titles from them. That's great sale and price point.

I ordered:

Wildcat
Poser
Going All the Way
Moon Garden

Went with the Digipack releases since those are limited.

Member-922335 · 02-17-2025, 02:59 AM

I for one would like to thank Oscilloscope for letting me know not to shop with them.

Not familiar with any of their catalog, but the trailer for Wildcat has me sold on it.
I' just don't have any enthusiasm to spend money ATM.
Also, even "on sale" a 3 title Bd order still comes to $60 with tax and shipping.

Will have to think about this

Well, outside of this sale, prices are about $32-$35 per title. I've bought from them before, but a half off sale is almost unheard off, so i took advantage.

Circle of Trust is one of the best subscription values out there. I will watch everything they send me, but I end up getting rid of about a third of the titles in a year. Shut up and Play the Hits is one of my faves, but I see value in most everything they release.

mclellandj · 02-17-2025, 05:04 PM

Oscilloscope is a great company. One of the highest quality outputs if you care about the films themselves.

Wow, I didn't even know they had a sub and that's a great price.
