Holy crap, those prices...... Have to be a sucker to buy either the DVD or the Blu-Ray at the full RRP price there. I should hope to see them both be at least £10 less than that from certain places.

Thats better. I still wish they wouldn't put ridiculously high RRPs though as it seems pointless & makes them look bad.
I'd go further and say, why set RRP at all?
In the old days it sure helped smaller independent resellers, but currently they are so heavily discounted everywhere, that the big ones just use the RRP to claim a % off.

In the end it sounds more like a market strategy: set RRP high, sell for a lot less and make people go "WOW, this is just 50% the RRP? what a bargain!"
 
On the other hand, I see something listed at amazing% off, now £expensive, I ignore it & wait until it drops further. As far as I'm concerned, DVDs should be £10 & Blu-Rays £20, & I judge how much good or bad value they are based on their deviation from that & whether it is justified by extra content.

I didn't mean you. In general the words % off attract people, even if the final £ is not that different.

Worst case scenario it attracts people attention and some might actually thinnk it's a good deal and buy it.
Also, both DVD and BD are complete series, so it's 3DVD's and 2 BD's in that case, what could bring the price within your expectations. Or wouldn't?
