I'm sure its not just me, but when looking through the pages of this thread there are two general responses to the items in order lists:

- Hey, that person got a couple of items I have/want. I need to check if the other items they purchased are a good deal.
- Why would someone buy that crap?

The first response always drives me to add a couple of titles to my orders (two so far).

A trip to dvdpricesearch shows that no other store has these in stock except DVDplanet (DDD sister store), and on Amazon used copies go for $20 for Exorcist and Empire Records, and $15 for the Chariots of Fire.

So either a small batch was found somewhere and DDD/DVDplanet's got 'em, or it was some kind of listing error. Has anyone received these titles yet or had a shipping confirmation on them?
I think they're just leftover stock they're trying to get rid of..

I haven't got mine yet, although if they DID send it via media mail it's not expected for 5-10 business days from the ship date so I'm not worried.

Exactly. I added 5 titles just by scanning through these threads.

Every time this sale is on, I discover a few titles I'd never even heard of. Last time it was FOLLOWING; this time it was THE TUNNEL.

If your order is taking a little longer than expected.............I just received mine and they combined different orders into one shipment. They even put a note on the invoice that they did this to save money.

It is okay with me, if it means we get these good sales more often.......

I've never heard of that movie and am having trouble finding out much about it. Have you seen it? How did you hear about it? Have you seen "The Official Story"? (just wondering if it's a similar type story)

I am still putting together my meager list but want to pick up at least one Spanish title, I had been looking at Dias de Futbol but the one you picked up sounds better.

I often 'plan' to pick something up the next time DDD has their sale, then I typically don't remember most of those titles. The thread always reminds me of what i need to get and offers a few suggestions to boot.

That's right! 2-5 business days to arrive in Canada, but held up another 1-2 weeks at Canada Customs. They've got to attach those customs & duty tax forms on the packages.

Almost forgot:

BEVERLY HILLBILLIES V.01 ULTIMATE

Never did see any reviews but I guess its probably the best out there. I sure hope the title song is on this and not some crap music like on the Public Domain BH titles.

If you want to pick a title in Spanish, I would recommend Cronos.

I only placed one small order this time around, compared to the $500 I spent over the summer. I'm getting better controlling my impulse buys I guess.

This was a blind buy based on an earlier post in this thread. Someone either recommended it or I just happened to notice it on someone's receipt. Have not seen "The Official Story". I'm more into crime / thrillers. "Nine Queens" ("Nueve Reinas") was also another one I watched recently that I liked.
