![Jaws [Universal 100th Anniversary] [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [1975]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/5689/5689983_sa.jpg)

2 copies per store and no shipping allowed?!!

I gave this a 5 star rating for the film and the potential of owning it on Blu-Ray but Best Buy really dropped the ball on this product! Was told the store only received one copy and most stores only got two. I immediately did an online search by state and showed not a single copy within 300 miles! Why promote a classic exclusive product with so much advertising on Discovery Channel's Shark Week if you know there will never be enough product to meet demand? They wouldn't even offer a rain check or discount on another product. My expectations of being disappointed in Best Buy's sales tactics are far out-numbering the pleasant experiences I'm getting. And being a Premier Silver program member is worthless.
What's great about it: It's classic-It's Jaws
What's not so great: No copies in stores within minutes of release
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Does not include the extra DVD

I was really disappointed the disk did not come with the "advertised" bonus disk of performances of Elton through the years. The Madison Square Garden show is outstanding though. The uncompressed audio is amazing. Since I ordered this through bestbuy.com, I did not know the bonus disc was not going to be included as advertised.
What's great about it: The blu-ray of the MSG show is outstanding in song selections. The PCM 5.1 is superb
What's not so great: Did not include the extra DVD of performance through the years
I would recommend this to a friend!

I based my review on the availability of the product at the time of the release. Best Buy.com was/is not shipping the product on online orders. It was/is only a store pick up item. If you notice the review, I gave the film the highest rating possible. The service of Best Buy is what I gave a one star and would have given less if I could have. I now have this Jaws Collector's Series Digibook and I stand by my original review. The film and digibook is the best blu ray release this year but it doesn't change the fact that Best Buy mis-projected the popularity this title would generate and was not prepared for the demand.
