James Bond Blu Ray Collection Vol. 1 - £35 at HMV (in store)

Hi,
I just bought this boxset from my local HMV - price is reduced to £35 for 6 discs with special features. The films are Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Thunderball, Live and Let Die, For Your Eyes Only, Die Another Day.

Still showing at £85 here -
hmv.com: blu-ray: Bond 6 Pack: 6blu: Box Set (2008)

I don't know if this is an exclusive offer but the lowest price on the web is £50.

Cheers,
Simon

Well, they're still available anyway - looking forward to the next boxset release. Hope it doesn't contain Diamonds Are Forever.

Diamonds Are Forever is great! It was the first Bond film I ever saw at the cinema as a child.

It will be quite a while. They have stopped releasing them. If they start again, they will probbably start from the first film.

Yep, and then they'll have different artwork and new 'exclusive' extras etc.

Milk that cow until it's udders bleed!

I don't care about different covers as long as they do the slip cover in the same style as now.

Goldfinger has been out for some time. What's to stop them selling all the ones out already and start from scratch especially if they have different artwork.

Just picked this up, Spotted it amongst their hideously overpriced selection. £120 on the label on the back of the box but a nice big pink £35 on the front
