Very cool......just purchased it too....thanks for the heads up......what a deal.

[Guest themetfairy]

Thanks bmfc1!

I just ordered two. One for us, and one for my parents - their anniversary is coming up

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Got mine.

[TransMonk]

I pulled the trigger on this too. Thanks for the info.

It looks like I already have a lot of what's included...but I'm a sucker for these things.

[bmfc1]

You're welcome everyone! I saw it at Mets Police so he deserves credit as well.

[Lefty Specialist]

Yeah, for $23 shipped I fell for it, too. Wonder how long it'll take ESPN to realize they're having a fire sale.

If it's still on sale tomorrow and my car repair costs less than $200 I'm in.

Anyone receive this boxed set from ESPN yet? I went to order today and it looks like the web page has been pulled.

[TransMonk]

I don't think it will acutally be released until next week.

From what I understood, this was a preorder for 08/21/12.

had forgot about it .....yeah IIRC it said some nonsense about the 21st.


still, page not being there is a little odd........maybe they realized what a bargain it was.

[bmfc1]

I checked the email and it says "8/21".

[Zvon]

I was gonna order four but I wanted to wait til I checked with all my bros to see if they knew about it. I kinda thought that the deal might be a mistake, too good to be true. Now I wonder if they will honor those who ordered it before it was pulled. If they do, awesome for anyone who did order earlier.

[TransMonk]

Got mine today. 10 DVDs...24 hours..."the most comprhensive Mets celebration available."

A steal at $12.99. Thanks again bmfc1!

cool, waiting for mine....

[bmfc1]

You're very welcome!

[Zvon]

That's great news. Glad you guys got the deal. I don't see anywhere at the ESPN shop to buy that at any price now. Guess Ill get mine thru Amazon.

Kicking myself for not ordering four when this was first posted.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Mine came today!!!! Thank you so much for pointing this out, because I would never have been able to afford this otherwise.

[G-Fafif]

The real deal! Mine came today. Was just in conference with it before realizing I'll have to go on corporate retreat with it. Thanks to bmfc1 for shining a spotlight on this offer. He's a funny guy. (Funny how? Funny like severely discounted box set funny.)

[Guest themetfairy]

Mine arrived today as well. Thanks again bmfc1!

Score for you guys. Saw this before it got yanked, but didn't pull the trigger. Down to 69$ now on Amazon, but knowing what I know, I find that price on the steep side. #cheapass

Me too, but 69$ is getting damn close.

[Lefty Specialist]

Got mine yesterday!



Tanks!

[metirish]

Got mine yesterday, seriously , wow. Thanks again for the heads up, there can be no way this was meant to be $12, it's a steal.

[bmfc1]

It is some impressive package (that's what she said).

[G-Fafif]

On Disc 10 (the "50 Greatest Players" part), on bonus materials, you will find a selection titled "Origins of a Franchise." That is adapted from the film that runs in a loop when you visit the Mets Museum & HOF -- I wrote the script (most of which remained intact through the 2010 editing process). So when you watch it and hear Gary Cohen talk about how there's no such thing as a "casual" Mets fan, et al, that's mostly my doing.

I had no idea it would show up there, received no additional compensation for it and am unbilled in the package and on the disc, so you might say it's my claim to obscurity. But I did write it, and I'm quite thrilled to discovered it landed in this handsome package.

Wow - that's awesome!

Deep digging bump alert! (page 11)

Got this a few weeks ago and the first thing I viewed was the 86' 16 inning NLCS game. I saw the game on TV live, but had not since and had forgotten the details. 4 hours! Man, if anyone wants to see why many consider Mex to be one of the best first basemen ever, just watch this game.

This package is awesome and even well worth the regular/full price. Looking forward to viewing the rest.
