Shortly after a similar promotion by Walmart, Best Buy is offering the remastered Blu-ray edition of Martin Scorsese's epic
Gangs of New York for only $12.99 plus tax (67% off MSRP). The offer is valid online, and store pickup is also available.
This title appears on Best Buy's weekly ad, but in a very confusing way: the cover image is that of the Remastered edition, but the SKU is that of the 2008 first edition. Some stores, after being informed of the mix-up, have pulled the movies from the shelves. However, the retailer's website was updated yesterday so that both editions are now set at the reduced price.
In turn,
Deep Discount has
Gangs for only $9.89 but, in a reversal of the BB situation, the cover image is for the first edition and the UPC is for the remastered; forum members who ordered it are still waiting for their copies so it is uncertain which edition is being sold.
Reminder: don't order
this item; it's the (inferior) first edition.
