Just thought I bump up thread in case the have they sale again this year. The website is still up with last year's titles which is the way it was last year until shortly before the sale started. Last year did seem like a close out of the event with many $1 and $2 titles. Sales didn't start last year until December 6th.

Interesting. There is a title list, but it's half sold out (last year's??)
Also, last year's password is not working for me, & my browser says the site's security certficate expired in October.

The only thing that definitely seems updated is it does state copyright 2019 & it won't take last year's password. Surprised the site's still up if the program is done. Most of us only pay for 1 year's hosting in advance.

I think given the language of the e-mail and the rise of digital this sale is probably dead in the future as well.

Fuck-you all and we're using our money for ourselves. Have a GREAT day!

Don't email us. We'll email you. If you do email us, you're going to get an auto-response because we're taking vacations with money we could have used for better purposes. Have a GREAT day!

Kind of strange. I would have thought that this sale generated a good bit of revenue. I guess not

I'm guessing the various labels located in California have less leftover inventory to write off as a tax deduction. That probably endangered the sale more than anything else.
