Some good deals on pre-owner blu ray discs here:

http://market.blockbuster.co.uk/movies/blu-ray.aspx

Enter code 5market for £5 off on £15 spend.

Just picked up The Hunger Games, The Troll Hunter & Snow White and the Huntsman for £12.76. Smile

RE: Blockbuster Marketplace blu ray offers + £5 discount code

While their market place may offer good deals,

I find it incredible that they are still taking orders for "Pre-Order" films some of which don't come out till April, that they have no guarantee of fulfilling if they do actually go out of business.

On that basis alone I would be reluctant to do business with them, it is a little like HMV and the gift cards.

Very few businesses can actually guarantee that they will still be here in April.

People can pre-order with their credit cards and claim a refund from there.

It is nothing like HMV, who announced without warning that their gift cards were worthless.

While I agree very few if any business could guarantee they will be here in April, they are not in administration, where as Blockbuster are, so have a very uncertain future.

It's only sensible to not pre-order anyhting from Blockbuster. I don't think there's anything wrong with Blockbuster accepting pre-orders.

Check this.

"However, they believe that there is a profitable core business and hope to sell the company as a going concern. In the interim, they will continue to trade and, for now, gift cards will be honoured."Read more: http://www.accountancyage.com/aa/news/2237607/deloitte-administrators-to-close-129-blockbuster-stores#ixzz2Ic2I4TQT

If you had bought another blu ray for £4, your total would've been £10 using the code above!

Seems like you can only redeem code once, shame.
