24,99 EUR is a joke, already released last year it never dropped below €20.
It's not even cheap in the UK (£16.91) or US ($19.96). | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played. [Ken Cole, DVD Profiler Architect] |

I think IronMan also doesn't dip very low in general and has even risen in price compared to release date on occasions. I think that's the general case for Marvel's releases. The Incredible Hulk hasn't dropped (not that I've watched it closely). I think Iron Man finally dropped when the sequel came out, but I didn't wait that long. Anyone wanting all of the pieces of the The Avengers puzzle are going to be shelling out a bit of cash. | | | | Adelaide Movie Buffs (info on special screenings, contests, bargains, etc. relevant to Adelaideans... and contests/bargains for other Aussies too!) | | | | Last edited: by W0m6at |

| | Posted: | | | | I'm still waiting for the Star Trek film BD to drop; I've bought the film on DVD for friends twice now and both times the (one disc) has been 75% off the original RRP.
The 2-disc DVD has held out a bit more but even that is available at less that 1/3 of the original RRP
But the BluRay... started out with an very high price RRP anyway (£30!) and has yet to drop much below£18... I can get 99% of DVDs films on release date for less than that! | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | I payed a crapload for my Star Trek BD but I bought the one with the Enterprise. It's one of the best collectibles I have. I was really impressed with it when I opened the box (unlike the Bat cycle I got with my Dark Knight set - still can't believe the wheels don't roll...  ) As far as BDs actually dropping in price from what I see it's happening already. There are many sales where you can get titles for under $10.00. You have to put it into perspective a bit though. It took many years for the $5.00 bin to appear at Wal*Mart. Now $5.00 DVDs are everywhere. BD will get there eventually. I don't know the numbers but I do know it's market share isn't that great yet. As it's share increases (if it increases) the prices will drop. You can get players for $100.00 if you look hard enough. HDTVs are getting cheaper every week. It wont be long before you see a $7.50 Blu-ray bin somewhere, there just has to bee enough older releases to make it happen. |

It's not even cheap in the UK (£16.91) or US ($19.96). 7,98 €  24,99 €  (x 3,13) 4,99 £ 16,92 £ (x 3,39) 18,99 $ (?!) 21,49 $ Two months later the B-rD price is still ridiculous. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played. [Ken Cole, DVD Profiler Architect] |

They're two films I actually want to upgrade from my DVD copies, but there's no way I'm paying between $25.99 - $32.99 for either of them. I'd even be willing to pay up to about $19.99 for them, but (locally at least) I've never seen them go even close to being that low. | | | | The night is calling.

It's not even cheap in the UK (£16.91) or US ($19.96). At October 29th, Amazon lowered the price to 18,99 EUR. At November 1st, Amazon lowered the price to 14,99 EUR. (or 11,-- EUR, if bundled with two other Paramount B-rDs, for a total of 33,-- EUR) At November 2nd, Amazon lowered the price to 12,99 EUR. 11,-- EUR, yes, that's ok. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.

You probably already did, if not, might be a good time to check out again your friendly neighborhood online shop. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.

11,-- EUR, yes, that's ok. Today bought at a 4 for 3, so I got it for ~9,75 Eur. Btw, Star Trek and Iron Man have been also available. I hate it to be patiened to wait for good prices, but my wallet thanks it.  |
