The Future Shop near me seemed to have pulled them from the shelves a while ago. Reason I am saying this is they had 15+ copies for what seemed like an eternity and all of a sudden I went one day and they were all gone.

Rabbit, did you get them to PM the DVD of Mirror Mirror instead of the blu-ray?

I would definitely pick it up for under $20, but over $20 I can't touch unless it's a steelbook lol

Well that sucks, but thanks for answering.

Yeah I ended up buying mine from Bluraystop a few weeks ago.

But it may be worthwhile to take a look at the Future Shops near you. Could me that they only took them off the shelves at my store because they ran out of room for newer releases.

I reported the $10.00 gift card and luckily they honored it for me when I showed them the printed email ad the day after I received it.

Goo Gone will solve that.
Stickers are all gone and looks new.

Doesn't it ruin the paper?

Not if you're careful enough. I've done it a lot of times without damaging them at all.

You can spill gobs of the stuff on there. Slipcovers are mostly laminated and wont absorb the stuff easily. The Stickers are paper and adhesive and just peel right off after they soak in the stuff for a minute or two.

Paramount was exceptionally good with the disc replacement though. The guy on the phone was very friendly, and I got a replacement within about 2 weeks.

Didn't realize this was still a problem. I thought if it was a Sapphire version it would be the good one?

Thanks! I'll give it a try on one I don't care much about...

I got BB to PM FS for Fringe Season 3 Blu-ray, no hassle at all. All the CS did was check the FS website, no questions asked. He commented that FS has had quite a few sales that BB didn't even though they are under the same company. Also, he said I guess we are getting your money either way. We both had a good chuckle.

Picked up Gran Torino for $5.99!

Does this happen often?

I ordered Dolphin Tale (Blu-ray combo) online from FS for pickup. The email for pick-up clearly stated it was a Blu-ray Combo. The label on the case said Blu-ray Combo. Opened it when I got home and there was only the blu-ray. I like having the DVD for the grandkids to watch the movie in the car or on their DVD players at home.

I looked again on the listing for the movie on the Future Shop site and there is no listing for a single blu-ray version, just the blu-ray combo, single DVD and the 3D Blu-ray Combo.

-10% of course ... which means they are probably losing 10% more by selling it to you. I bet they regret coming up with that policy.

It can, if the slip is totally non-glossy. Most slips are glossy enough (i.e. shiny and you can see fingerprints on them).

By the way, no need to buy a special fluid if somebody has acetone-free nail polish remover in the house. Some cleaning fluids are strong enough to melt plastic!

I think it's an error on FS's part - I haven't seen it in person, but I don't see combo anywhere on the cover art, unless it comes with a slipcover.

No slipcover, just a big white Future Shop sticker on the top of the case with the price, title and Blu-ray Combo words on it. Information, when you order it online, should be accurate. From now on I will be more diligent in checking it out when I pick it up at the store. I am just making others realize that this can happen.

PM'd 21 Jump Street @ FS last night. Instead of figuring out the difference, he just put a value below 10% diff of WM's price, in my favor.
