Heroes HD DVD Cheap on Amazon

Al_T3D · 14-03-2008, 13:08

As hinted to in the title, I just bought the heroes Complete Season on HD DVD for £21.97. The SD DVD is double that on there. Thats my bargain of the month.

Excellent, it looks like the Universal price slash has finally hit the UK dealers

Yep, a few people got orders in and then it shot back up in price almost as if Amazon saw the demand and decided the HD DVD market was still worth exploiting

DVD couk have it for £29.95

Well, it arrived Saturday this morning, I'd only ordered it Friday afternoon, glad I didn't go for the Guaranteed next day delivery at a lot of extra cost, as it arrived anyway before 1pm. Anyhow, the picture quality is excellent, except the un-aired pilot seems to be SD, which is no real loss as it's pretty bad anyway.

I notice it's on there now for £34.97, still not bad, better than the £68+ from Woolies, Jeez that shop annoys me, they seem to add a fiver on everything, Gits!!!

Yep once again (just like Amazon) they drop the price of HD DVD, they get a flood of orders and the price goes up again

It's really going to be a culture shock when I finally stop buying HD DVD and add Blu-ray and have to pay normal prices

Well, a sub $250 BD player from Samsung later this year should help!

A little ironic if the Funai player eventually turns up and mainstream suppliers already have cheaper products

Then again if Funai take advantage of the cheaper optics that are on offer now their initial $300 price tag will be greatly revised.

For anyone who is interested, amazon.de are selling a ton of HD-DVDs for 10 euro's each !

They contain the english language track, they ship to the UK, and ofcourse HD-DVDs are region free. Bargain.
