Well, I just did the columbia house 5 dvds for 25 dollars deal, but they didn't have all the movies I wanted. So, I went to amazon and searched for Magnolia. Turns out its list price is $30! Same for the Winslow Boy! Amazon had them discounted down to about $25 - but thats stilll a complete ripoff considering I just bought 5 movies for the price of one! I did some searching and found them available as cheap as $21 at playcentric.com - but thats still pretty damn expensive. Anyone have an idea of where to get these dvds at a reasonable price?

Yeah, well, you'll cancel it and they'll keep sending you stuff. Then you'll call them and cancel it, and they'll stop sending oyu stuff.... for a couple months, after which they'll start sending you more stuff. And then you'll call and ask them WTF they're doing, and they'll tell you you signed up again. And you'll cancel it again....

My fiancee had to cancel her credit card account to get them to stop sending stuff.

Use a one-time CC. I can tell you this, once columbia house knows it cannot charge your CC the movies stop coming.
