Amazon Prime Day 2016 - Blu-ray Forum

aimforsilence · 07-05-2016, 03:54 PM

Amazon Prime Day 2016 is next week (July 12th 2016) and I wanted to know what deals everyone is expecting and hoping for?

Personally I'm holding out hope that the Star Trek 4K releases get a slight dip in price and also maybe a criterion movie I've had my eye on for a while. What about everyone else?

After the flop that was last years Prime Day, I'm really not expecting much blu-ray wise. I'm hoping they surprise me with some good deals though.

Yeah last year was a bust. That's why i'm holding out hope.. lol I know the stuff I want probably won't get any discount but a man can dream right?

Really hoping for that Sons of Anarchy Set to be at a reasonable price.

Last year I only picked up the Breaking Bad Barrel which was, in my opinion, a good deal at 86.99$.... especially since I sold the code for 35$(USD).

I'm waiting on what the US Prime has.. not looking at spending much of anything though.. I recall it being pretty crap US and CA last year..

Same, I've been holding out for the Sons of Anarchy blu set as well. I'd love to pick it up for under $100.

Last year the only thing I got was the Cheers DVD set. Not even a bluray deal, but I've enjoyed watching it regardless.

Came here because it was in the Hot Deals thread....oops, this should be in the Wish List

Well, to be honest with you, I know most of the Canadian threads in the Hot Deals section as they identify themselves as CA in the thread title or are stores only in the northernmost section of America and I ignore that they are on the main page when looking at Hot deals. There is no flags or anything to show it is not a US thread. I reread the OP and there is no mention of Canada...as well as no HOT DEAL. I explained why I read the thread and suggested where it belongs, but maybe wasn't specific enough. Maybe I'll buy some when I am in Victoria.

Hayabusa85 · 07-06-2016, 03:12 PM

You sure are optimistic. If it is like last year there wouldn't even be anything worth mentioning in the Amazon.ca thread let alone needing a thread dedicated to it

Enjoy a double-double and don't forget to wear your snow shoes before you go outside.

NeMo_ET · 07-12-2016, 04:05 PM

X-files set seems reasonable, but I bought all those already.

That's an awesome price for the set and it looks like it includes the event series as well! Does the deal last all day? Or are there are a set amount for sale at that price? I want to know how much time I have before I commit to something.

Looks like it's a limited time "Ends in 12h 46m 56s". Counting down as we speak. Doesn't look like there's a limited quantity, but I could be wrong. Noticed some of the other prime sales said something like Deal is 50% Claimed.

Jakdonark · 07-12-2016, 08:20 PM

I'm going to have to pass anyway. I have around $100 in upcoming preorders and half that in my paypal account, and forgot that we had used the credit card as much as we did on the last vacation...

There's always Black Friday and Boxing Day. Too bad cineplex is out of the blu Ray game.

Prime Duh.
