Too good to pass up

[sg1padawan]

Thanks to likethesun for the heads up:

VirginMegastores.co.uk has S1 Doctor Who (2005) for £6.99.

Yes, you read that right. And considering the boxset is still ridiculously expensive out here, I just ordered it. £6.99 is what it was processed as (therefore, if it's a glitch - likely - then I'm hoping they will honour it) and £4.50 for the postage. AU$26 (

Yeah, likethesun thought they'd stuffed up because it still says £36.99 elsewhere on the site. But the shopping cart only said £6.99, my order total came to £11.49 so I'm hopinghopinghoping that it's all fine and they'll leave it as is.

Hey, EzyDVD did it a few months back when I grabbed the Roswell S2 boxset. I ordered it at $9.92 and the next day they reverted the price to $79.95 (obviously a mistake the day before!). I still only got charged the $9.92 though. :D

I wish they'd spell Chris's name right though. It's Eccleston not Ecclestone. Morons.

Well done though :)

It's Eccleston not Ecclestone. Morons

Uh. I know. What is it with people wanting to put an 'e' on the end of everything. I mean you even pronounce it 'ston' not 'STONE'. Grrr.

Well done though :)

Hee. Thanks. I'm just glad to be going back to work on Monday. a) I can stop spending. b) I can start replacing all the money I've spent while I've been off! LOL

Haha. I just saw this down the bottom:

Starring
Christopher Eccleston
Billie Piper
Christopher Eccelstone

WTF?? LOL

[debs7]

That must have been for the secret epiosde hidden on the DVD where the Doctor is split into 2 people one played by Chris Eccleston and the other by Chris Ecclestone

*snort*

Wow! That's really cheap! Even with the exchange rate to Australia dollars, it's still cheap! I think I might have to order it too. Thanks for the link! :)

[sg1padawan]

Hey, I meant to ask - did you end up ordering this?

[kaaatie]

Yeah, I did. For that price I couldn't resist! :)

[sg1padawan]

Heh. Don't blame you! The main reason I ask is, have you received a notification that your order is now on back order??

[in_the_bottle]

Damn, they reverted it back to £36.99!

[sg1padawan]

Aw, damn! :( Bummer that you missed it. I knew they'd changed it fairly fast.

I'm watching my order thing like a HAWK. Keeping my fingers crossed that they don't change my order amount or contact me about paying the extras. *flails*

What a deal! Man, I wish my Christmas money would come in. In the states, there's a special on Amazon for Doctor Who seasons 1 & 2, but I'm still shelling out $112 for the set :l. But I have free two day shipping, so maybe that will soften the deal a bit.
