So, that's like $40 for the MI Boxset, Amazon.ca (Canada) has them for $28.99.

Thanks, though - definitely good prices for Atonement; besides not being a combo, I like the artwork better,

UGH. Just realized the exchange rate. I'll get it in Canada instead.

I forgot - Amazon.ca charges $10 to ship to the U.S.; good on the first purchase from Amazon.ca use the coupon code MAPNEWNCSAVE for purchases over $20 for a $10 discount - covers the shipping.

Those are decent prices but a lot of them are the exact same titles that were already being had on dvd.co.uk 2 for 10 pound deal which is pretty much the same price (approx. 5 pounds each)

-------------
Surprised they no longer have Brotherhood of the Wolf at amazon.uk ??

It's less than €10 per disc (shipping to Germany included), Amazon Germany has no more M:I boxes in stock and the UK release also has German audio - I consider that a great deal and maybe some non-US-residents too.

Btw, exchange rate is great, to € at least .
