Amazon's got another TV DVD sale

[yendi]

I guess they're responding to DDD's 20% off sale, as some of these are cheaper than even those prices:

A&E DVDs up to 50% off -- this includes a lot of the ones that were in the British TV sale (The Emma Peel Avengers Mega Set for $99.98, Jeeves and Wooster for $64.98, etc), as well as some nifty new items, like Kids in the Hall Season 1 for $18.97 (53% off) and Season 2 for $22.97 (62% off, which makes the "up to 50% off" kind of silly), and the 12-disc 2004 Boston Red Sox Championship box set for $71.97 (45% off).

And there's a Fox 50% off sale that might kick my ass: Simpsons Season Five and Season Six (both of which are on my wishlist, you know) at $26.97 each, Arrested Development Season 1 at $19.97 (ditto), Greg the Bunny for $13.47 Wonderfalls, Remington Steele, The Lone Gunmen, and Harsh Realm for the same $19.97 each, and a ton of Buffy, Angel, Mary Tyler Moore, M*A*S*H, 24 and other stuff at 50% off.

ETA: That A&E sale includes the 30% Anniversary Edition of World at War for $72.97 (51% off), which is an amazing deal on one of the best documentary series ever.

Yeah, I know -- "the things you own end up owning you". But that bit of wisdom was uttered by a fictional alternate personality of an insomniac psychopath.

Yeah but if the things that you own that also own you are really cool things, then you're being owned by people like Homer Simpson, Dave Foley, and Buster Bluth.

So what's the problem?

Yeah, they have all the cool Fox DVDs on 50% off...except House!!!!!!!!! That DVD would already be on its hot lil' way towards Nashville except it's still $41! *growls*

I just wanted to mention that these little posts you make on sales of DVDs and books I take a look at and it leads me to some great deals I would never have known about!

Thanks.

Ah, "Wonderfalls." I may have to get that one. ;-)

You enabler, you. I was just thinking about the A&E version of Pride & Prejudice and wondering if my vhs copy was still any good. So much for not ordering anything until after I move. No will power have I!

[yendi]

Well, given Buster and Homer's general mental prowess, I'm not sure anything they own fares too well.

[yendi]

I'm glad to hear it! I figure everyone should get a chance to get in on the good deals. :-)

[yendi]

It's so wonderful -- and unlike many shows that got axed, the box set really does resolve most of the plotlines.

:-) It was too hard to resist using that line.

[yendi]

Heh -- yeah, I'd noticed that one (EW just did a comparison of the classic, A&E, and current versions), but at that point, I was pretty much going to just have to list ever DVD on the list. :-)

I agree. It is very much appreciated. The next step will be for me to have enough loose cash to actually take advantage of some of these deals. *sigh*
