Amazon $2 DVD Sale: Dinner for Schmucks, Face Off, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Mummy, The Rainmaker, The Scorpion King $2

i was just about to post on this subject. Dont be jumping in on this for the trade purpose. amazon is not stupid. there is no deadline for trade-in, but just like amazon sale prices on new products, trade in prices change frequently, sometimes 3-4 times per day on popular products. That's right - per day. Just because you are seeing a $4.35 trade in value right now, does not mean it will stay the same. Just think about this - you and many others are trying to do the same. Everyone's delivery date will be different. As soon as first few who got early delivery enter their trades, price will go down, because quantity "on hand" will go up for Amazon.

merchant pricing is what i do for a living, but there really is no rocket science here. This happens all the time.

I thought we locked in the price quoted for NEW items since there is no issue of grading?

From Amazon: "Do you guarantee the trade-in price listed on your website?

Yes, if your trade-in is postmarked within 7 calendar days of submission and the item meets or exceeds the product eligibility criteria."

Dinner for Schmucks is dead for me

$1.99 is WAY too much for Dinner for Schmucks. Horrible movie.

Yeah, that guy doesn't know what he's talking about. The trade-in values are fluid. They will go up and down as demand suggests, but when you lock in your trade-in, you lock in that price. They give you a week to ship it in. It's also a good idea to check back and see if the price changes. In cases like these, where there's a chance it won't be received in time to ship back to Amazon, you can cancel the original trade-in and resubmit them and the clock starts over. Loves me some Amazon trade-in!

I'll run over to Best Buy, buy the movies I purchased to trade back in, send THOSE in to Amazon, then take the ones I receive from Amazon and return them with the Best Buy receipt.

And spend $20 in gas in the process!
