A word of warning. Many people are unhappy with the Warner store. Customer service is poor, they don't answer emails (you'll need to call them), and there are bad shipping delays. But if you're willing to wait and put up with bad service, there are some really good deals.

The buy one-get one at Amazon.com is annoying me a bit...looking to get both of the Pirates films, yet since they ship from 2 different locations, it's not subtracting the price of one. I stuck 2 other titles in there that ship from the same place, and it DOES take the price of one off. Hopefully they fix this...

 

I've seen that type of error happen before at Amazon. Their customer service is pretty good. If you have space on your credit card, I'd suggest placing the order, then emailing or calling and have them deduct the difference or refund your credit card if they've already charged. Their customer service has a new feature where you can get an instant callback from a live person.

 

By the way, if anyone's planning on ordering from this Amazon B1G1 sale, place your order as soon as possible.

The last big HD sale at Amazon (Buy 2 Get 1 Free) was so popular they ended the sale after 2-3 days without any notice. That sale was scheduled to last 3 weeks, but they got slammed with orders.

 

Went ahead and ordered some of the Blu-Ray's on sale at Amazon (of course tossed in a few more than just the 2 Pirates films ), and they fixed the error and refunded my card within an hour. So if anyone else encounters the same problem, fear not. The deal is pretty nice too...ordered 6 discs, and it comes out to about $12 per film, which is damn awesome

 

It looks like Circuit City is having a 50% Off and/or Buy One Get On Free sale on both Blu-rays and HD-DVDs under $29.99. It seems to be strangely set in the computer so it depends on the store that you go to.

I'm going to try and dig up some Fox titles, hopefully this isn't a glitch they'll fix any time soon.
