I bought 11 in total. Couldn't really name a 'best bargain' though as they were all roughly the same price - £5-8.

I guess 'best bargain' would be some of the AUS ones that were $7 each. Can't remember how many I had before the sales (was roughly 40-50) but I now have 122. My fave's are my bladerunner briefcase, heroes season 1 and T2 Ultimate edition (german one).

I have battlestar galactica seson 1 box set for £12.70 off amazon marketplace as my bargain.

For me it was the three Bourne films for £20 from Play. Three brilliant films for £6.66 each. Also just bought Blood Diamond and The Kingdom for £4.99 each from HMV.

What's this nonsense about the sales coming to an end?


There's still plenty of movies I'm watching and waiting till they hit the £5 and below price..

Re: What fire sale hd-dvds have you got and what was your biggest bargain?

I've been remarkably restrained and only bought one, Tremors from Play.com at £2.99 (£4.99 less a £2 discount voucher).

Much as I love HD-DVD I can't make myself go out and buy lots of cheap disks because at some point in the future I'll have lots of disks and a faulty disc player.......

Just picked up the Star Trek Original Series 1 Box Set for less than £20 delivered! (amazon... now back up to £100 )

Sounds like a bargain to me!

Get a spare player? They are cheap too. 360 add on is now £40.
