Poker DVDs

I recently purchased DVDs with bonus money I got from PokerSourceOnline.

I've found that you can get more items by getting points at PSO, and then shopping at Amazon than buying items directly at PSO with points, so got my Amazon Gift card.

I've also found that usually Amazon has not the best prices, but the sellers on Amazon do have very competitive prices, so I bought thru the sellers at the Amazon Market Place, and paid with the Amazon Gift Card.

The items I've bought are:

1) Howard Lederer's Secrets of No Limit Hold'em, Amazon Price: $12.99, Bought it for $1.27 from down_to_the_penny_deals
2) Howard Lederer's More Secrets of No Limit Hold 'Em, Amazon Price: $11.99, Bought it for $5.49 from pokersuppliesco-com (Texas Hold Em Superstore)
3) Howard Lederer's "Tells" All, Amazon Price:$7.99, Bought it for $4.29 from pokersuppliesco-com (Texas Hold Em Superstore)
4) Annie Duke's Beginner's Guide to Texas Hold'em (Masters of Poker), Amazon Price: $10.99, Bought it for $10.42 from caiman_com (Caiman.com)
5) Annie Duke's Advanced Texas Hold 'Em Secrets - How to Beat the Big Boys, Amazon Price: $10.99, Bought it for $9.89 from caiman_com (Caiman.com)
6) Poker Secrets From Poker Champs, Amazon Price: $8.99, Bought it for $6.23 from www_dvdmagnet_com (DVDMagnet.com)
7) World Series of Poker 2003, Amazon Price: $30.99, Bought it for $10.35 from salttheearth1 (Amazon Midwest zShop)
8) World Series of Poker 2004, Amazon Price: Not Available, Bought if for $29.99 from pokersuppliesco-com (Texas Hold Em Superstore). Same item was available on the ESPN Shop for $19.95, but I prefered to use my gift card
9) World Poker Tour Season 1, Amazon Price: $71.99, Bought it for $33.28 from caiman_com (Caiman.com)
10) World Poker Tour Season 2, Amazon Price: $35.99, Bought it for $22.50 from jims_hawkshop
Items 2, 5 and 7 were highly recommended on the 2+2 Forum on Books and Publications. Item 6 was also recommended. I bought items 1, 3 and 4just for completion, also because they were cheap.

I also had to pay $2.49 for shipping to the US for every single DVD.

Altough a very few items were more expensive this way when you add the shiping charge, than buying dirctly from Amazon with the FREE with Super Saver Shipping, I choosed to buy them outside at the Market Place because in this particular items Amazon had shipping times from 1 to 2 weeks, against 1 or 2 days at the Market Place.

And my friend Carlos is travelling soon to Argentina, so I had to get this free international shipping :-)
