All right, who`s taking the p... er.. michael? £24.99 reasonable for a bare-bones disc??? I baulk at paying that kind of price for a box set!

Yeah, I`ve gone with £7.99. As far as those 3 votes at the top are concerned either as above they are taking the p**s or they;ve just got more money than sense-perhaps they are Premiership football players?

I thought £7 but it`s not there ;-)
There are £1 gaps.... Shouldn`t it be £5.00 - £6.99, £7.00 - £9.99 etc ..
There`s 2 CD-Wow vouchers worth there ;-)

£2.99 is just about right - is a fair price to pay.

Remember when Fox put out a bare-bones, non-anamorphic Titanic DVD for £29.99? They`re probably the 4 people who bought it. :D

LOL

Seriously, though, I think RRP`s are still too high - and we are talking RRPs, not final street or online prices. Top line movies should be around £15-16, back catalogue around £10 and bare-bones £5 IMHO.

I think barebones/back catalogue should be between £7.99 and £9.99, with new releases or special editions around £15.99.

I don`t think you should n`t pay more than a fiver for a bare bones DVD. A bare bones DVD is almost as bad as, perish the thought, a VHS cassette!
