And I remember bunch of people saying that they were gonna wait for big price drop seeing how the first season sat on the shelves for many months. Target throwing another fast one on the consumers lol

Seems Target has these in stock again. Available for shipping. Get 'em while they're hot!

Yeah, shows both shipping and pickup for me now. Weird indeed.

It wouldn't surprise me if the replication plant issues haven't affected this title also. I also wouldn't be surprised if Target/Netflix had less made.

S1 wasn't region free, right?

[mysticwaterfall]

All 4K discs are region free. Cant speak for the normal blus though.

I'm glad that I waited until the 4k set went on sale for $20.00 today.

Quite a few people paid full price thinking it wouldn't drop in price. I sort of feel sorry for then now (but not really). People have to look at the history of the sales of Stranger Things Season 1 at Target and how the prices dropped for both sets, and not the hyperbole that dominates Blu-ray.com.

(Hey CQD84 I'm just busting on you, hope you don't take offense but I couldn't resist - when I first read your post I was like jeez no sympathy for folks who have to stick to a budget! It's not just being cheap, some of us have families to support so we have to wait for a price we can afford. $20.00 was my sweet spot.
Also, you are correct about certain store exclusives such as BB steelbooks and Target digibooks, but Stranger Things isn't the same as those - it's a store exclusive but will be offered for a longer period of time, it doesn't have as a small a print run)

Anyone who waited should jump on this price now.

Son of a ...! I tried to tell the lady in CS it was $20 this morning, but I couldn’t find any proof.

Wonder if it will drop again. This sucks!

It's still showing $20 on the website. You could have either used that to price adjust or buy it again and return with the old receipt.

Does anyone know what the shaking/rolling sound is? People mentioned the discs were pretty difficult to get off the spindle so I'm guessing maybe the postcards or something else entirely? It sounds like a disc rolling to me though when I move it around. Anyone else experience this issue?

I went to my browser on my phone, Chrome, and it luckily shows $20. Don’t know what was up on my app.

Anyways , got $10 back!

Thanks for the heads up Torgon. I was hoping these would get a restock. I picked up Season 1 and 2 for $20 each and also got a free 4K movie with it because Target has a buy 2 get one free deal.

This is a very common issue. It's most likely 1 or more of the discs that have come off the too short foam spindles. The season 1 set only had 4 discs so the foam spindles were plenty long and the discs stayed on them. But since the season 2 set has 6 discs with no extra space, the spindles are much shorter, and the discs are much more likely to fall off before they're opened. When I got my season 2 set, 2 of the 3 sets on the shelf had loose disc(s).

And putting the discs back on the short spindles is a pain as well, as it's difficult to put them on the spindle far enough so they actually stay on. I went ahead and got a 6 disc case to store the discs separately.

Is the 4k that big of an improvement to spend an extra $10?

Yes, especially on Season 2 as it has HDR, lossless audio, and a wider color gamut this time. Season 1's UHD set only had a bit more detail, but left out everything else that assists 4k.

Thank you so much for the information!

Price matched to get my $10 back too.

It's not even that the foam hubs are too short. The circumference of the foam hubs is a tad bit too large. That's why the top disc on each can easily come off and why they're a pain to get back on. And yes, that's a great idea. I plan to pull the trigger on one of those cases as well.

I went ahead and got the regular set and the store I went to price matched their site so I was happy getting the set for $10.00.
Until I replace my 4K TV that was stolen I'm good for now with this set.

Walked into my local Target last night and they had one copy of the 4K set on the shelf. Took it up to Customer Service, had them price match their online store and walked out with the set after paying $20!
