Samsung BD-P1500 + Matrix trilogy = $225

Great deal. Not the best bluray player by any means, but for the lower cost this could be a good starter. Heck, the Matrix trilogy is worth nearly half that cost already. I was not a fan of the last two movies, but for those who love them all, this is a pretty good deal!

Sale ends one the 18th.

Was this only Amazon? Or did other places have it as well?

Yes but the 'zon has the best price. CC $250, BB $299 & Amazon $226.

I was going to post this yesterday (or maybe it was Sunday), but when I added the two to my Amazon cart and went to check out, I didn't get the deal. Turns out (at least when I did it), Amazon was out of stock and it didn't appear to apply to other vendors. Hopefully the deal is being honored now.

I would like to update my post. I just got an e-mail from Amazon with this deal mentioned - and the total price is now $215! Buy the player, get the Matrix collection for free.

Whoa! That's a great price alone on the player. Free shipping, no tax. I could sell the trilogy for $60 and essentially get the player for $155.

That's what I said at a different forum. Cheaper than the cheapest Oppo DVD player...

With the way the economy is right now just before the holidays, expect to see RIDICULOUS deals going on Black Friday, Saturday and Sunday...heck it will probably be the whole week in order to get people out to spend some cash. People are far more likely to be looking for those deals too.

^ I agree. I've decided to continue to hold out until then. As long as I have a BD player by the time Dark Knight comes out I'm fine.

The Dark Knight will be one of those titles that will get more people to go Blu

I actually bought this same player from wal-mart a few months ago for $422 out the door. I took it back 3 days later because I couldn’t justify paying that much for a bd player that I wasn’t going to use much. Now, I’m glad Idid.
