Best Buy can suck it!

I'd pretty much stopped going to Best Buy because you can find blu-rays online for at least $10 cheaper. When I wanted something on release day and was willing to pay the extra, they'd always be out of what I wanted by the time I got out of work.

I figured yesterday would be different seeing as Flight 666 on blu was a Best Buy exclusive (at least until next month). Wouldn't you know it, they'd only received a handful of them and they were all gone by 4:30 PM. Suck!

I tried 8 stores yesterday. Future Shop was the only one that had it, and so I called and asked them to hold it for me (I later went over and got it).

Well done, my Canadian friend. I see that it's available on blu-ray from Amazon.ca for $25. I suppose I could get it from there but after the shipping costs and the time, it probably wouldn't be worth it (the US Amazon price will only be $15).

Forced to wait a month for a blu-ray or import it... now I know how the rest of the world feels like.

Hell yeah! Canada rules! I live in Edmonton where I saw Maiden live for the first time on June 6th and it was the best night of my life. I was crushed that I couldn't see this in the theater... Maiden are my life and I own pretty much everything by them.

F--king awesome movie, best ever IMO. I've watched it like countless times on Blu-Ray, lol. And what's awesome is that Sam Dunn is Canadian too, HELL YEAH!!!!!

Canada may in fact rule, but that's no reason to rub it in.

I'm seeing Metallica in October in Toronto.

Dude sorry to hear that. I was at my Best Buy at opening on the 9th and they had a lot of stock. Blu-ray, DVD, CD and they even had the double LP. I was surprised seeing as Maiden didn't come to Vegas. I therefore thought places wouldn't stock up on their stuff.

I got my Blu-ray at Best Buy on June 9th for $14.99.
