Shane_B. Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 It was a bad weekend. The good news is, my wedding/graduation/funeral/formal occasion suit still fits. So there's that at least. Sitting at home afterwards last night I wanted to watch a movie to distract myself. I can't think of a better genre to watch after a funeral than a zombie flick. Flipping through free movies on YouTube I came across Night Of The Living Dead 1990. The Savini remake. I was thinking, man it would be really great if they gave this the royal 4K restoration treatment. To that Batcell Boy Blunder went. I did a quick search on the net and low and behold, "4k restoration including the uncut restored version with deleted scenes. Release date ... SEPTEMBER 23RD $39.99 Pre-order now at amazon, walmart, target, and other online retailers" Straight to Amazon I go. It's not even listed on Amazon. Went to Bestbuy, Walmart, Target dot coms and all the preorders were sold out and it's unavailable. I couldn't even place my order and wait. Pop on over to ebay and there they all are. You can buy them all day long. Lowest one I found was starting price ... $89 + $15 shipping. I'm all for capitalism. That said ... there really should be a limit on how many preorder people can place because this is scalping and that's not right. It's just as underhanded as daw subscriptions. There, I made it "music"related. This isn't the first time I've seen this. I've had to wait for years for some movies to drop back down to retail price. All because of the preorder situation. I suppose I'll have to cave and order one on ebay. Maybe I'll say it never arrived and get a refund from ebay and screw the seller like they're screwing me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gswitz Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I'm sorry about having to wear your suit. I had to wear mine last week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the 2nd time this year I've had to wear it. Sorry to hear you had to wear yours too. I think what I'm going to do is hit the stores on release date. Halloween is coming up, so I may get lucky and they'll have one in stock. Best Buy has one little rack they keep them on in the back of the store. They used to have isle's and isle's of Blu-Ray's and UHD disc's, but they are online only now except for new releases. I'll try my luck there.

mettelus Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Is interesting that you post this, since the FTC just recently filed a lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster for the exact same thing. Not only was the "ticket limit" per patron bogus, but spambots were scarfing up all the tickets to resell at a higher price. Here is a link to one of those reports if you hadn't seen it already (or can just search for one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
