Title: Best Buy six disc Uni-Monster Blu-ray set?
Post by: Scary Terry on August 05, 2013, 01:27:37 PM
Saw this 6 disc version of the blu-ray set at Best Buy the other day (discussion and pics at the link) http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=222690 (http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=222690) -- priced higher than you can get the 8 disc set on-line. What's the deal...?

BBY exclusive, which means ridiculous price.

What's the deal? It's an "exclusive"! You can't get it anywhere else! Isn't that worth $10 more, for two movies less?   ;D

It's the same reasoning they use in pricing salt-free, sugar-free, gluten-free food. You take out the good stuff (in this case, The Creature) and charge more.

The Best Buy set is not worth it. You can get the complete collection from Amazon for like $10 more.

You can get the complete collection from Amazon UK for LESS.

Exactly! Why would you pay $70 for an incomplete edition from Best Buy when you can pay like $15 more and get the complete edition. If you do not consider it complete because it does not include the sequels, then at least it includes Phantom of the Opera and Creature from the Black Lagoon.
