This set is region free therefore you can buy it from amazon.co.uk for 24 pounds (on checkout, they'll remove their taxes and add 3 pounds shipping) which ends up less than $40 shipped (there is a very small change that the US/Canada will charge import taxes but for something of this price they usually don't). 3 weeks ago I bought the Alien Anthology from there for 17 pounds (it's still this price) and with shipping and conversion it ended up being $28 (I didn't get charged import taxes) The only difference is that the US release comes in a digibook (like Star Wars) and the UK comes in a 6 disc blu ray case but for the price, I'll live

Won't be buying that particular bump but just a bump on Amazon.UK. I keep an eye out for deals there because sometimes the deals are better than you will ever see in North America. So far I have been impressed and have found them to be almost as fast in shipping as Amazon.com
For instance, I ordered the complete Band of Brothers Bluray and it cost me about $28.00 Canadian in total and I had it the same week I ordered it on the cheapest shipping method.

Damn, I missed the deal. It shows $64 now. I was still thinking "good Price" until I realized that there was only 13 or 14 episodes made.

If you haven't seen the show, it was really good in my opinion. Maybe not worth $64 though. Then again, I picked it up a couple of years ago on DVD for some crazy low price like $12 new.

I bought/watched the movie Serenity a few times, always thinking I was missing something, not knowing what it was, then a Google search revealed Firefly. I first rented it, then bought it on DVD. Later it became available on blu-ray and I bought that one also. I think I paid around $50 for it from Amazon at the time. It's one of my favorite TV Sci-Fi shows. It's a shame there was only one season. Made by Joss Whedon, who also made Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Dollhouse, plus other stuff.

Patience. That series seems to become a deal on Amazon.com more than any other.
