Best Buy offers year end HD DVD sale

23 December 2007 18:59 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 7 comments

Best Buy has begun offering a year end "buy two get one free" deal on HD DVD discs.

The company is advertising over 200 eligible discs, meaning most, if not all, of the HD DVD movies the retailer carries qualify for the deal. Prices range from $24.99 to 34.99 USD and after the discount the effective per disc price is lowered to between $16.00-24.00 USD, making it as cheap as new release standard definition DVDs.

You can view the complete list here, but a few of the new release blockbusters available are 'The Bourne Ultimatum,' 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' and 'Transformers'.

The deal is scheduled to run through Saturday, December 29th and both offline and online. As an added bonus, there is also free shipping on all HD DVD discs.

Importing is where it's at. I just got the full 5 disc HD DVD edition of Bladerunner The Final Cut for �18.10 including delivery from Amazon USA. The UK version is a 2 disc set for �17.95. Amazon USA have also been doing a BOGO offer which UK residents could benefit from. Result. [ + quote]
