I ordered a large bunch of titles anyway. I guess they will be re-stocked and shipped at some point (unless some titles went OOP unexpectedly)

I suspect they simply sold out because they were rock bottom prices. So I've ordered a bunch anyway so will get them at that price when they come back in stock

Fnord Prefect · 08-25-2018, 11:31 PM

Just had a look through the expanded sale listings and was kind of sad that the two latest volumes of Whicker's World (series 5 and series 6) are in there for £4 each postpaid. Presumably they didn't sell very well which doesn't bare well for Network following through their proposed plan to release all seventeen seasons.

I've ordered 3 sets of the professionals, i expect them as stocks are replenished. I would be bemused if the order was cancelled and i hardly think they are about to be OOP.

Same here - just waiting for MKII to drop in price to have the full set

McCrutchy · 08-26-2018, 04:40 PM

Snagged a bunch of older Network discs from this sale. I didn't realize that their Richard III has a huge 212-minute Channel 4 documentary on it from 1984, The Trial of Richard III, which can only be found on the Network Blu-ray and SE DVD, and must be worth more than £3.99 on its own. Also pleased to get a few £2.99 titles as well, particularly Ransom, which I've not seen before.

Bundled them all with this:

because there was only one copy left from Amazon, and it just felt like the right time. That's the joy of traversing the deals section.

hariseldon · 08-26-2018, 06:51 PM

Absolutely shocked to see Department S: Complete series for £15. Listed as OOS, but cna be ordered. Dropped from 35 where it seemed to be holding for months.

Had to choice, but to order it along with THE ENDLESS LE and Hopkirk Complete which really didn't drop much, but threw is a several of the £9 ARROWS which weren't I missed at the last ARROW sale. After removing the VAT -- 7.50 which would have been the price through ARROW anyway.

Went ahead and added the DW19 set since the Shipping basically didn't change any once I got to 4-5 items. At worst I can cancel it later so I can't see a downside to ordering now

chip75 · 08-26-2018, 09:05 PM

Newtwork DVDs from £1.99

DefLeppard · 08-26-2018, 09:55 PM

Was expecting these titles ;Odd Man Out , Hell Drivers , Perfect Friday , Robbery , The Medusa Touch, The Ipcress File to be in this sale but now I dont think they will as price drop on network titles has stopped a while ago.

[Show spoiler]

.

Extras are listed out in dvdcompare and it has a different run time : ~14 mins shorter but not sure if the documentary originally had 225 mins of runtime as noted there.

That was my fault. In fact, I was going off of their listing, but got the numbers discombobulated. Probably my excitement at finally acquiring The Lovers' Guide 3D.

No

I wouldnt blame you. I saw that bufvc site info too (while checking if indeed thats the one as I wasnt able to comprehend how such lengthy documentary be part of extras

) as it was the only available information to check if that documentary was that long (could be on SD but still ~200+ mins ) but I was not able to find any information other than this site.Who knows if that was down to fps rate or indeed some missing scenes or may be that bufvc site's runtime is incorrect

225 minutes is probably the run time with adverts / news breaks.

Man, that Network sale at Amazon is incredible. I ordered 28 blu-rays. Even if I get half of them since they're back ordered I'll still be happy.

Fnord Prefect · 08-28-2018, 04:19 PM

Another 60 items added to their "Bonkers" sale including Victim and Invasion: U.F.O. blu-rays for £4 each postpaid, plus a couple of vinyl LPs for £9 each postpaid.

Agent Kay · 08-28-2018, 04:27 PM

I am not seeing the crazy prices on the network site, what am I missing

There isn't much there to be honest, they keep adding titles bit by bit.

The Professionals MkIV blu for £6! Incredible deal for those who haven’t got it.

Is The Man with the Golden Arm any good? I’ve looked at it a few times, and it sounds intriguing.
