Honestly even if I was rich and did have that amount of cash just laying around I'd hopefully rather give it to a charity of some kind, or to a homeless person. Crooks like WB don't need more cash in their pockets. Hanasían wrote: Aredhel Ar-Feiniel wrote: I have a friend who actually purchased it. It's currently on a pre-order sale for $200 off!

Don't bother getting ticked off, Jax, it's not worth the time and energy.

At least you can buy all the previous extended ones for much cheaper now. This collection is silly and a complete scam anyway.

True true, if nothing else there is that.
Here I go again... but, yes it IS a scam... and that ticks me off almost as much as waiting all those years for it just to find out I can't/won't get it.
Ah well... I've had too much sugar and coffee today in conjunction with one another... I don't need to get myself worked up yet again. lol

I just saw this and was going to make a thread.The article I read say $800 dollars. No I'm not wasting that much on it. I would rather buy the less expensive version and invest money on a nice prop. My Thranduil sword was way cheaper. I'm glad to have the prop than the movies (And I like the Hobbit but it wasn't all that. And it is not worth $800 either).

Ditto.
A good movie sword and the extended versions of all six movies would be way cooler.

You could actually get three licensed LotR swords for $800, give or take. Ridiculous. I think by most peoples' books, 3 swords win by a landslide. Jax Nova wrote: Ditto.

Haha, lol It would indeed. Knowing me, though I'll probably just get the movies and forget the sword. I'm always tight with money... Mostly because I don't make a lot and life seems to love screwing me out of it with constant problems like vehicles breaking down or medical stuff etc.... But.... I might do some window shoping to see what they cost now days.

For about that ( $280 ) I could get all six LOTR movies AND the first six Star Wars movies. At this time I have 0 movies that I own. Last few times I moved I got rid of too much and movies were one of the things that went.
The only things I have ever really missed were my star wars and LOTR movies. Though I'm tempted to wait (again) to get all 9 Starwars movies together in a single box set like they will invariably do.... BUT now I'm concerned that if I wait all that time they might tag on an outrageous price just like they did for LOTR.
Amazon also has several swords from the movie for under $200 So... yeah, I think I'd be better off going that rout but now I'm hesitant to spend the money at all.

The price on Amazon now it is down to $500 still way too expensive for what's offered especially for anybody that owns the movies. The only way I spend another dime on those movies is if they make the Lord of the Rings in a 4K format which I'm hoping they come out with one day and they won't be unreal expensive because I do enjoy the difference between 4K and 1080p but it still wouldn't justify me spending over a couple hundred dollars to get all the movies in 4k.

Well $500 is WAY better than $800 but still.... O_O like you say, still too much money for what is offered. *sighs*
What is the 4K, though? I don't guess I am familiar with that.
