Where do you buy your movies?? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

rwpow · 09-16-2008, 05:01 PM

95% of the time from Amazon, followed by Costco. My wife seems less inclined to look sideways when I buy from Costco, probably since a couple 18.99 BLU's seem insignificant compared to 40# dog food, detergent, a two-pack of tri-tip, 5# of salmon and a crate of peaches......

Most of the time I get my Blus from either Fnac or Mediamarkt a few times off Amazon.

SDon1969 · 09-16-2008, 08:53 PM

1) Amazon third party sellers
2) Amazon
3) Family Video (now that great prices aren't so great, probably will be less buying from here for me)
4) Best Buy price match to Wal-Mart, C-City or Target (since their normal prices are horrible)
5) Occasionally buy from Half.com and from MovieStop (used only), but not in quite awhile

Get mine from Amazon via the link from this site. Also get them from Frys when I'm in the mood to drive there.

Amazon, inless I have something I want to trade back.

When I have some movies I really don't want to keep, I trade them back to Hastings and get a little money.

jdc115 · 09-17-2008, 07:56 AM

All from Amazon and then I have it shipped overseas. It is still a lot cheaper then buying locally

cdot2four · 09-17-2008, 08:13 AM

70% Amazon
15% Target
15% Best Buy

Aquaman67 · 09-17-2008, 09:58 AM

BigFoot · 09-17-2008, 12:24 PM

In the past, it was mostly (90%) from amazon.com. Lately it's been about 50/50 between amazon.com and blahdvd.com.

LORDs_angellos · 09-17-2008, 12:30 PM

To this point, I've bought BDs at Best Buy and on Amazon. Mostly Amazon.

Yes they do run promotional special offers/sales on blu rays from time to time and offer free shipping for orders over $25.
