A Professionals Public Service Announcement

[przed]

Whilst doing a regular check of my Amazon UK wishlist to see if any prices had changed, I notice that the box of all four sets of of the re-mastered Professional disks had dropped down to £46.97.

I grabbed it, of course.

You can find it here.

OI! So getting it! And the region-free player to see 'em on.

Yay! And region-free players are cheap these days.

Thanks! I only still needed Season 3, but they're all on sale so now my collection's complete. Also grabbed the second season of Hustle.

A complete collection is a very good thing.

('Course I now have two complete collections with the old ones, but I'm not going to complain.)

[gilda-elise.livejournal.com]

I have the old set, too, and have no plans of getting rid of them. :-)

Sooo, those are prettier than the other DVDs that they put out, is what you're saying? *doesn't stand a chance*

justacat, shayheyred and I watched the same episode back to back in both versions in England (justacat had just picked up the re-mastered version) and the difference was pretty amazing. They've cleaned up all the negative damage and done a major colour correction.

If you pick it up, will you do more Pros vids? *eg*

*goes to Amazon so she can make pretty vids* You are a bad, bad person

[przed.livejournal.com]

I'm not bad, I only vid that way. ;)

(I think I should be getting a commission from Amazon.)

You're a bad bad bad bad person. And we love you. And Amazon. *eyes credit card sideways, gives up and just hugs it*

Just doing my public duty. *g*

I hate you so, so much.

::prays for strength to resist the siren call of remastered Pros::

[przed.livejournal.com]

Well, I hated you for getting the first box so cheap when I paid full price, so we're even. ;)

[tovalentin.livejournal.com]

Crap! They're back up to £90!

::sulks::

If it makes you feel any better, they still haven't shipped mine. (No, I'm not checking the order status several times a day. No, not me. Nosireebob.)

[tovalentin.livejournal.com]

Not in the least. Hey, LMK if you ever come across that again, okay? Maybe I should look on Blackstar/whatever its new name is.

S says she'll buy my old set to help me finance the new one. :-) But not £90 worth.

[przed.livejournal.com]

Mine shipped! Now I'll just have to start bugging the mailroom.

My usual strategy for monitoring prices is to add stuff to an Amazon wishlist and check it every week or two. (The Pros set is now off my wishlist, since I've bought it, so you might want to set up your own wishlist and add it.)
