master_q 0 Posted May 24, 2003 Me too [Like I have said several times . . . . I buy my sets at Best Buy because you get a free extra bonus disk. And another good news is that Best Buy seems to have lowered the cost to a regular price of $99.99! Last time it was around $115 ] Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdigs 0 Posted May 24, 2003 Do you think that they will eventualy come out with a box set of TNG dvd's and DS9 and then Voyager? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
master_q 0 Posted May 24, 2003 Do you think that they will eventualy come out with a box set of TNG dvd's and DS9 and then Voyager? All of TNG is already out VOY will most likely come out after DS9 does Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted May 24, 2003 Yes, Master Q is quite correct, all 7 of the NG DVD BOX-SETS (better hurry) have been released. So far I have not had any trouble being sure the bonus disks are attached, if the shrink-wrap appears to have been altered at all I refuse it and ask for another. My total price for each box is about $112 including tax. I have herad it said VOY Box Set’s will start their release’s in early 2004. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdigs 0 Posted May 24, 2003 I already own TNG's dvds ( are you kidding!) I mis-wrote my question..I should have been more clear. Is it a possibility that Paramount will release the full 7 seasons of DS9, Tng and Voy in a box..so that we don't have to buy season 1-7 of each series..when we can just buy a box with them all?

Oh, I see. Anything is possible, but I don’t see any plans to do so. They probably won’t though (they might, but at this point no one can really say) And to buy them all at once would be a lot of money. I don’t see Paramount doing that Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tank 0 Posted May 24, 2003 I don't have any of the DS9 sets yet, I guess its time I start! There is a store near my house that sells the season sets used for $59. They also sell them online at secondspin.com but online they cost $69. Still not a bad deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ktrek Posted May 25, 2003 Master q, You are spending way too much money for your DVD sets. Sam Goody records and also Suncoast video are owned by Best Buy. They also have the bonus disc. Their price is also $99.00 BUT if you are a member of their Replay club you can save money. For every $1.00 you spend you get a points that equate to savings certificates. They have certain days where if you pre-ordeer you get 500 points. They also have triple point weekends where you can triple all your points. My wife and I always try to take advantage of their system. We averaged with the certificates and the Paramount $25.00 rebate offer about $70.00 a season for TNG. You do have to play the game but you can have all brand new seadled copies at a decent price. The biggest drawback to this process of course is waiting for your rebates and certificates, but since you were already putting $99.00 on the table this should be no problem to you. Have a good one!
