Guess you haven't told him about the big sale at DD or that he could get 'em even cheaper at Amazon.com.
Actually he knows. He's the one that offered to pay me $110 since he doesn't have a CC and I was charging them for him. I mentioned the first season discs and he said sure...consider it an early Christmas present.

Anyone else get an automated telephone call from DD to tell you about the sale? I've always gotten the email solicitations but this is the first time I've gotten a phone call.

"Hi. This is Deep Discount calling to tell you about the big 25% off sale......."

Anyone even remotely interested in documentaries should purchase it, especially at a post-discount price of $16.78.

That's a fantastic set. No Volume II?

Wow! Are there any other Criterions that much cheaper than the DVD Planet price?

In-Stock

Is there an easy (ha) way to change billing method? For some reason my credit card has been getting declined at some places (even though at the gas station it works fine, and it's actually a debit card), and I'm worried that an order with only a backordered item, when it comes in stock, will try to get paid for, decline, and get cancelled after the sale.
Failing that, a secure way of cancelling the existing order.

Ugh. Thought my 2nd order was my last order at DD. This is definitely last order as I probably got everything I wanted (that was in-stock).

Ordered:

Vanishing Point (Widescreen)
Switchblade Sisters

TOTAL: $13.01

Sarah Jane Adventures S1

Torchwood S2
Doctor Who S4
DW: Infinite Quest
DW Encyclopedia (book, not 25% off but part of DD's Mega Sale)

Plus a Sonic Screwdriver, two 5" Daleks and a voice changer for my boy for Xmas, and Doctor Who: The Movie (R2) (McGann) for myself.
I've gotten in the habit of waiting for the sales to do my Doctor Who purchases. When the sales started this month, I purchased the releases from August through now from DVD Planet (whose prices on the old series titles were better than what DD had), so there's a lot of DW viewing going on in my family right now.
