So less money I’m fine if bestbuy don’t want my money but the Sunrise colour vinyl I like but not when they release it in June not to get any stock at all at a $30 price tag to rerelease them 4 months later with a $45 price tag lol sounds like a bestbuy thing.

"Anna" which I wanted, was also not released here in 4K, but on a positive side, you can order these titles from Amazon.com on sale at equal or lower than the cost from buying it in Canada (HST included of course).

Now that Amazon.com can charge you in Canadian Dollars, it's easier than ever to compare pricing.


Thanks @jacques1400,@leprekon

You have answered a question concerning why Canada will only get certain movie titles in bluray and/or television series title in DVD. I have always found aggravating to have to make a special order for certain tv series like Netflix's Lost In Space in bluray when they are only being offered in DVD in BBYCanada. I go to a store called CINEMA 1 (not ready to abandon brick and mortar) and they to have to special order certain titles in bluray because they were only released in DVD; but when I go to this store I see many older customers are still sticking with DVD and are not ready to even switch to Bluray let alone 4K.
