[TigaSefi]

It's rumored that the old Xbox Live packs for 12 months will be 5.99!!!

[nujjy]

The GTA Trilogy Pack is only £20 which is a pretty good bargain.

[losimagic]

I'm hoping there might be some DS bargains to be had, my collection is very small at the moment

I already have tetris and dual strike (along with brain age, phoenix wright and NSMB), the axelmusic 5.99 titles are/were pretty shocking and none of the games at play or the hasbro collection interest me (the hasbro one did at first until I read a few reviews/reports on it)

so that's enough :shrug: :thinking: :?: from you thank you ;)

That still leaves both Metroid games (one with rumble pak for £13.99) :razz:

[losimagic]

That still leaves both Metroid games (one with rumble pak for £13.99) :razz:

don't want either. I don't like the metroid series, and the pinball is apparently pretty boring after the first 10 minutes - and I'd rather get the ds lite rumble pack :razz:

I'd like to see meteos/animal crossing/dawn of sorrow amongst others in a sale sometime :)

Anyway, this is getting off topic so that's enough of that

[alphatyrant]

Lot of stores start early, look out for many cheap Xbox games that are marked down on generic barcodes like the halo kit above (i.e. our store had Destroy All Humans and Alien Hominid for only £3.99 each).

Plus Alien Head Boxsets on sale within the next day or 2 for £49.99.

[IlMoro]

Most of the Gamecube (big stores only) & XBOX games have been marked down. Otherwise a lot of 2.99 DVDs including colllateral (Single), Matrix, revisted, Revolutions, Animatrix with CD, Shawshank, Election, Sideways 3.99

More recent stuff includes Serenity, History of Violence, Kinky Boots 7.99-£9.99

[jigger_jay]

mine stopped selling xbox stock ages ago.

if anyone can grab me a live pack and destroy all humans i will gladly compensate for your troubles.

[mrsingh]

Anyone know if the Coventry branch has started their sale early?

[mrogsie]

Battlefield Earth £1.99 :clap:

No I'm only joking - prepares to be flamed by Scientologists

[allan175]

Yesterday evening HMV in the Trafford Centre had Gladiator for £7.99 (didn't notice anything else), so it looks like its started early there too.

[hallanthony]

In Newbury at lunch time they were putting the sale dvds out, but not in there own area so just with the normal DVDs.

So it's rather hard to work out what was in the sale...

[Soprano]

No "early bird specials" advertised in The Metro or Evening Standard Lite today.

I must've just missed it then, I was in there just before 12 (hoping to find some early stuff) and it looked normal - ah well, back in tomorrow I go :)

[Wrong-Eyed-Jesus]

They had a lot of copies of "Barton Fink" for £1.99, although I thought it was only available as part of the Coen Brothers box set.

There were also Hitchcock titles at £2.99 - Vertigo, the Birds, Rear Window.

do you know if the hitchcocks are the best r2 versions.. ive seen different packaging around and wondered which content was best..?

The Birds is pan and scan on R2 so avoid. Region 1 is better for all Hitchcock. Get the Masterpiece set........and then bin Topaz!

I've just bought House online. Thanks for that, been looking for a fair price for that for a while...

[richdmx]

If anyone sees the GTA Trilogy for £20 then can someone grab it for me and ill send the cash straight over, as its still expensive online.

[TonyG]

I'd snap up House at that price if it wasn't for the shoddy 4:3 transfer. :|

[Boozyuzi]

House is £17.99 but is shows as £49.99 when I put it in my basket.

Not that much in the sale really, picked up a few things and got the £5 voucher. So very tempted by the Alien Quadrilogy head set though, figure I could use the voucher and get it for £44.95 which almost seems worth it for such a ludicrously over the top piece of packaging! Would be a definite purchase if I didn't have the original R1 release of the 4 films.

[Spooky_uk]

well checked 2 stores today and none of these bargains to be had. for example both stores had xbox half life 2 at 19.99 still. wish hmv would have across the board pricing for these sales..

[charlie angel]

Barton Fink at £1.99 - too cheap not to own it :thumbs:

[broxibear]

No-ones mentioned the Charlie Chaplin Collection Vol 1 , reduced from £69.99 to £9.99 in Striling branch.

No sign of Vol 2 unfortunately.

[ajr90]

Has anyone who brought House Season 1 is able to confirm that it has no subtitles ?

Given that it says "Subtitles: none" on the box, I think that's pretty conclusive. It's the ones which don't mention subtitles on the box at all that annoy me most.

It's a right pain about House - all along I've been telling my mates "I'll watch it when it comes out on DVD", and now I can't. :doh: I'm really surprised that a popular new show like that doesn't rate any subtitles at all.

Some of the larger stores might get that in, however system price is £39.99...not such a massive reduction.

As for the cheap games like Half-Life 2, they are marked down from an obsolescent list, some of the Philips MP3 players had money knocked off, as well as some PS2 and Xbox games and even board games from Xmas.....trouble is that it varies from store to store so there's no uniform discount.

Just shop around for the cheapy, cheap stuff.

Gone for a Barton Fink, if anybody hasn't seen it you'd be mad to miss it at under 2 quid. Also finally got a tracked Lovesexy for £4.50. Can't go wrong

Tell me about it esp the R1 version is not anarmorphic for some daft reason!!!! I am seething at this idiocy. Mind you now i know it 4:3, it takes the pain away somewhat.

[Johnny Vodka]

I'm going for a Barton Fink too.. probably the Coen's best film. Could have picked it up instore today, but like the idea of making them pay for p&p. :nuts: I think some of the prices on the website are cheaper than in-store.

You might find its just a case of some stores not having down the markdown yet as well.

Yes Yes Yes! Fantastic film. :thumbs:

Went in last night myself and bought:
American Splender for 2.99
Barton Fink for 1.99
Glengary Glen Ross 2.99

A bargin for these films.

[Ste7en]

Yes Yes Yes! Fantastic film. :thumbs:


What he said. BUY IT!!! :)

What version of Glengarry Glen Ross is cheap in store? The online one is 2.49, but its the 4.3 version. Still tempted at that price.

OK, I bought one ;)

[philatio]

Indeed. Not amused.
Only bought Gladiator and Casino at Trafford then got home to find them £1 and £1.50 cheaper online. Delivered.

Glad I didn't spend loads.

Avoid the 4:3 version - it's really not impressive.

[forum]

Went in yesterday and just felt tempted by things (especially History of Violence at £7.99), but didn't really buy anything.

Didn't notice American Splendor had been reduced though, so shall try find time to look for that!

[bradavon]

Sorry if this has been asked. Is there a direct full DVD sales link?

On average how much cheaper are they in store? I have a £10 Gift Voucher I've been meaning to spend, usually HMV are a rip off so I've not been able to.

I'm tempted by Gladiator but would prefer the R1 (both cuts, just in case) but it's so expensive. I'll pick up TCAT though.

id heard the r1 boxset was best but in terms of uk r2.. ive seen two different styles of packaging.. is there a difference in content? its rear window & vertigo im looking to get...
Different cover art same discs.

Vertigo UK R2 is fine (not as remastered as the R1 though) but Rear Window is P&S. If you want the best Vertigo it's still the R1 but as it's only part of the box set it doesn't interest me.

are you sure rear window is p&s? dvdcompare says its 1.66:1 anamorphic on all regions... i wouldnt bother at all if its a 4:3 version...

How are you finding what to buy?

[ralph wiggum]

Don't think it's part of the summer sale, but Rising Damp: Complete Collection: Series 1-4: Movie: 5dvd: Box Set (http://www.thedvdforums.com/jump2.php?url=http://clkuk.tradedoubler.com/click?p=18710&a=60823&g=280345&url=http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=434311) @ £12.99 seems a good price :)

[wallofbeans]

How are you finding what to buy?

thinking about what i'd like for cheap and searching for it on the hmv site.. if its cheap then i buy it!

[ross007]

Not a bad sale, went for;

Ultimate Force S3
Office Space
Mean Creek
Dead Mans Shoes

[clerk37]

Received Gladiator this morning, very swift delivery. Now for some Hitchcock.

[stampax]

Thanks to OP - brought Clerks for 8 quid, girl next door, airheads, mallrats all for just a few quid each. By far and away the best sale MHV have had before.

[jacquesbrel]

Received Gladiator this morning, very swift delivery. Now for some Hitchcock.
my Vertigo landed on my doormat this morning, less than 48 hours after order was made. top service :thumbs:

[carlito8]

Decent sale went for :

Gladiator
Vertigo
Rear Window
Barton Fink
Conan The Barbarian
American Splendor
Wall Street

[pbooth]

anyone received £5 voucher after ordering online???

[ali]

There are 3 Alien quadrilogy head boxsets in the Exeter store at £49.99 as of about 2pm today for those interested.

[T4V]

The copies of Office Space were £9.99 in Grimsby so I had to order online. Not sure if it is mentioned above (and PC is running too slow to check) but if you spend £20 or more you can have GTA - Liberty City Stories on PS2 for £9.99 and a choice of 4-5 film for £4.99 each but there was nothing special I saw.

[nig5]

Does the 3 disc version of Gladiator still have DTS???

[Paul Bennison]

Just read above about The Birds ratio - been years since I've worried about being sold a pan&scam version of a movie... but 24th June 2006 - and my first panscan faux pas.

Anyway, just bagged from my local HMV Emporium...

Spirited Away
Memento - 3 disk
Rear Window
and... The Birds.

Wonder if that should read 'The Bird'. Just hope that not too many of them hiding in the side areas of the screen I'm missing. :dork: ;)

With a £12 gift card, that little lot set me back less than £4 of gold coins.

[Listy]

Does the 3 disc version of Gladiator still have DTS???

Nope

[willncc]

The 2-disc special edition of Saw is £4.99 delivered online (but £6.99 instore(. Hope this hasn't been posted, but like a poster above, on a very slow connection (hence no link).

[Richie]

Does anyone know if the individual edition of Barton Fink has the deleted scenes and stills gallery? There's no mention of any extras on the back of the DVD... :shrug:
YES it does have the deleted scenes and stills gallery! :thumbs:

I must have been lucky - just checked my email order confirmation and its definately £4.99.

[Philc]

Got Man on Fire
Apocalypse Now
American Splendour

All for £2.99 each.

That's an amazing price for an amazing SACD. I paid £11.99 on release and it's money well spent. The SACD DSD 5.1 mix is nothing short of outstanding, easily the best 5.1 HD-Audio remix ever created.

[stampax]

Mine all got delivered yesterday (7 DVD's) - many of the 2.99 discs had stickers on saying 3.99 (so i guess maybe they are more expensive in store?)

I think that one set contains the old version of Breakfast at Tiffany's while the other set contains the newer, SE version. Don't know which set is which though I'm afraid.

Ste7en, you should be able to tell by checking out your BaT disc - is it the SE?

Damn! Didn't have time last night. Now £13.99 online...

(Although Begins is 4.99 and the other SEs are 7.49!)

[bradavon]

Picked up the Audrey Hepburn collection as advertised on TV.

12.99 is a good price.
It's a cracking price and I was tempted BUT "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is the Original DVD NOT the Remastered version (only on R1 at the moment). The original DVD is a mess in comparison to the Remastered DVD it's grain heaven.

Still you could always sell that DVD which I was also considering but the pink Remastered cover would really stand out against the white of the others.

Yeah, I checked last night and it's the 'regular' edition (with a trailer).

Roman Holiday is a SE.

Nevermind, I'll pick the SE of BaT up anyway... I'll wait for a R2 release and compare.

No, the image showing the white box is the old Audrey Hepburn set. The new one has a black box. I made a joke about not minding paying the extra quid for the black box but I'm not really bothered what colour it is. :shrug:

Hi guys, not sure if this was posted in the thread, but I went into the Aylesbury HMV, and they have a deal where if you spend £20 you get Liberty City Stories on the PS2 for £10.

[jacquesbrel]

The Hunger and Clash of the Titans have been added online at £4.99, cheapest I've seen these anywhere.

[smartiepants]

Has anyone had the Dog Day Afternoon SE through yet - should there be a booklet? Mine didn't have one.

[TonyA]

charlie angel - My R1 doesn't have a booklet, and i'd be surprised to see Warners doing one especially for R2 peeps. I stand to be corrected though....:)

On a similar note - has anyone received their Matrix 10disc set for £16.99 recently. I ordered it on Monday - said it would ship within 24 hrs - but having checked today, it still hasn't shipped, still says it should ship in 24 hrs...but the price has gone up to £39.99 :(

I guess there isn't one...

[bradavon]

Err... no, to compare extras and transfers.
Is there a "Breakfast at Tiffany's" UK R2 on the way? Knowing Paramount it will be identical. I hope the cover is white this time.

The new transfer is much, much better but the extras are rubbish. Not that I really cared I upgraded for the picture quality.
