How black friday on amazon works?

[Ugabuga]

I am new to black friday shopping. Is there any chance that there will be new deals this week? I mean I was hoping to get apocalypse now on sale but I didn't get it.

You're not getting Apocalypse Now on sale, it's out of print. Check eBay for used copies or look for an international release. Only the 2 disc Final Version only release is still in print. I found a used Lionsgate 6 disc copy on eBay a few weeks ago for $34 which is a very good price IMO, I've seen it going for $50+ on average.

Amazon will update prices to match other retailers. Currently they've begun price matching some of Gruv.com's prices. If Walmart has anything, Amazon will match those after Walmart update their system, etc. It's anyone's guess when and for how long the prices will last.

It's all part of the new world order.

Went to Walmart today and they didn’t have a single Blu-ray.

sales this year sucked. Akira in 4k for $16 sold out in hours before I checked out.

Only happy about starship troopers 4k and cowboy bebop complete for $18

Does it seem like a greater percentage of copies you purchase during the Black Friday sales end up being rewrapped/shrinked copies without slips or copies that come in the baggies with the LPN stickers on them (which I believe are previous returns)? Almost feels like a waste of effort trying to take advantage of these sales. All 2024 release titles. The reshrinked major studio titles, I have to wonder if the digital copy codes are used or not. I'm thinking about sending back about three quarters of what I've received so far. "No longer required?" Also lately Amazon has been using boxes and though I've still had scratched discs, the packaging has been fine. Seems now it's those brown bags with way too many titles inside and things smashed.

Yeah sales sucked this year.
