My hauls from the Astrovision SM Makati Sale last Friday night.

Superman Returns - P350
Blood Diamond - P350
The Departed - P350

Sayang, di ko na nakita ang Shrek 3 and Ocean's Thirteen. (or naubos ba?)

I think sir ito yung 1-disc na nakita ko rin kanina(Halos magkapareho kasi sila ng print and case). Nagkamali lang siguro si sir rico_g. Sinagot ko rin yung tanong ko. :)




Sorry. got mixed up with the receipts... yes Spiderman 2-disc is 550.  ???

I was convincing the sales ladies to include the Magnas that got released yesterday to the 50%-off sale like the other titles that were released just this week, but they wouldn't budge. These are  The Kingdom, Atonement and Elizabeth - The Golden Age, still priced at Php 695 each.

They budged already. But only for Elizabeth: The Golden Age. And it's only a 45 peso discount, down to 650.

Still better than nothing.  ;D

Mabilis naubos yung stocks. I'm glad I picked up Planet Earth on the first day.

My haul from different Astro branches in the city:

Friday night: Astro RP, Manila

Scent of a Woman P150
Disturbia P299

Saturday night: Astro SM Makati

Stranger than Fiction P299
Waitress P275
A Bug's Life P175
The Iron Giant P150 (replacing my older IG DVD which has a ton of scratches)
From Here to Eternity-Superbit edition P299
Planet Earth P1200 (I hope local distributors also come out with Mythbusters seasons)

Sunday morning: Astro Virra Mall

The Thomas Crown Affair
P175 (Steve Mcqueen version)
Spider-Man 2-Collector's DVD Gift Set P550

Thought about getting the new Predator 2-Disc since it was cheap, but I wasn't really a fan. Good action movie, though.

At Vira Mall there was this girl asking about the Spider-Man 2 gift set from one of the salesladies just as I was holding it. The saleslady told her they didn't have any more.

I thought about just handing it over to her instead because I really didn't mind. Then I thought that can't be their last item on stock ever, and I couldn't stay because I wanted to get home already.

I hope she stuck around for a bit while longer because there were still some boxes that haven't been opened yet and I've been reading how a lot of the members here keep finding this particular giftset on sale everywhere at Astro. Hope she got lucky  :)

I went to makati last weekend, trying not to pass by astrovision stores so as not to get tempted. hehe. But fortunately, I passed by Music One. I can't believe that they priced the Planet Earth DVD from 1500 to just 600. So I immediately bought it. So much for self control. hehehe.

Hi guys!

I bought The Little Mermaid DVD today for P175. Its my first time to buy a disney animation. Upon viewing I noticed that it is full screen. Ganito ba talaga yung mga Disney animations? or mga R3 versions lang ang ganito?

That was clearly mispriced... but we at PinoyDVD know how to take advantage of such occurrences.  ;D Darn, masaya pa naman ako sa 1200 ko...

By the way, in case anyone's looking, outside Astro V-Mall, I saw that Stardust already had a "50% Off" sticker. Inside Astro, though, they said it wasn't supposed to be included yet. Stick to the outside Astro sale, since inside, all the new titles (Stardust, 30 Days of Night, American Pie: Beta House, etc.) are not discounted.

Are there still plenty of stocks of Stardust in the sale outside of Astro Vira Mall? How about the newest Magnas, are they still priced above Php 650?

TIA!

P600 na lang? what????????

Swerte mo bro. heheheheh

Weird nga eh. In Astro SM Makati, these titles (except Stardust) were priced at 50% off during the sale. But on the first day (Friday), their prices were not yet slashed.

After I bought my copy from Music One, they immediately placed another copy into the bin. And it was again priced at 600.  Since the shrink wrap of the copy that I bought had a tear, I had it replaced.  So maybe it was not really mispriced. (Or maybe the whole batch was mispriced, hehe)

Anyway, sorry guys. I was hoping to post this news right after I bought it so that you guys can also get your copies there. Unfortunately, I had to go to Laguna where I had no internet access.  Will do next time....   :)
