Save $5 on John Carter 4 disc combo

[Krawk]

Good work everyone...y'alls got your wish. 24.99 for 3D on 'Zon, 19.99 for 2D. With the original $5 coupon that means I'm getting 3D for 19.99. Preordering Disney wins again.

Yep - would be slightly irritated to preorder it early and pay the same price as is for the title at a hick-town Walmart.

Wonder what the bonus disc is that came with the one from BBY?

The bonus disc from BBY only contains 20 minutes of content:

Populating Mars - 15 min - The filmmakers reveal how they brought the creatures of Mars to life.

Extended Scenes - 5 min - Extended scenes with filmmaker introductions.

The worst thing about the extra disc is that it isn't in the case and is glued to the back in a soft case.

BBY also isn't honoring the MFR coupon because it says on it "Not valid with any other offers" and they are saying that the title is already on sale.

Pick it up at Target!

Have faith. Usually takes a day or two after price drop. If you really start getting anxious, fire up a customer service chat and have them fix it.

Ok...mine switched to "shipping soon" around this time on Monday morning. The adjustment had not yet been made, so I started getting anxious. So I tried a customer service chat, and the rep said it would happen after shipment and made it sound like he did something to make sure of that (though I figured he just was telling me to be patient, like I told you, and the system would automatically handle it).

Just over 48 hours later, I still have not been refunded...which seemed longer than usual. I started thinking maybe I screwed up their system with my first inquiry and whatever that rep did. Wanting to make sure it was resolved before they jack the price back up, I just did another chat. This time the rep was more specific about how the system works. They said:

I checked and see that if the price changes after your shipment is already being prepared, you'll receive a refund within 24 - 48 hours of the release date.
I'd like to ask you to wait till the end of the business day of June 6 to receive the refund e-mail for the price difference.

So, I guess I have to give it one more day. But now I know more than I did about how it works; I knew there was something about 2 days, but I figured it would just be within 2 days of shipment.

This is pretty typical for BB exclusives. Their Zombieland extra disc only had two short featurettes. Their POTC4 3-D had five extras totaling probably about half an hour. The Mission Impossible 4 exclusive was one of the better ones with over an hour of extras.

I'll confess I'm a bit of a sucker for owning "the complete version" of a release. Not advertising the exact contents is one way of reeling you in. The Indiana Jones DVD boxset from several years ago had an exclusive bonus disc (with less than a half hour of extra stuff) available only at, IIRC, Besy Buy. No way I was gonna pass that up.

Walmart has the 3d combo pack for $24.99 and both combo and 3d combo contain a $10 check that can be redeemed for any other disney combo pack $12 or more.

I emailed Amazon yesterday (received the movie yesterday) and they did a manual $5 credit. Then I get an email today that I'm being refunded $4.96 to actually match the correct price. It seems I ended up getting an extra $5 off, oops. Can't say I feel guilty since I pre-ordered the movie with the original $5 coupon, the price dropped to $24.99 on 6/2, they should have dropped the price then instead of waiting this long. Props to Amazon customer service for just giving a credit to make it right though!

I love how Best Buy does not honor a MANUFACTURER'S coupon. The coupon clearly states that the retailer will be reimbursed the coupon price plus a handling fee. I'd like a form ID 10 T please.

just came back from Target. Got the movie for 21 dollars...
