| Posted: | | | | This is just a general question of what others do with a multi-movie box set where the individual movies are available separately. What I've done in the past is I put in what I paid for the set itself and leave what I paid for the child profiles blank (or $0.00), but it got me thinking that maybe it'd be more accurate to leave the box set price blank and split each movie by what I paid.
What do you guys do? |

| Posted: | | | | I usually put the price I paid in the boxset profile, and zero for the contents. Never really put much thought into it to be honest.
However, if I buy a bunch in a "3 for £20" offer or something similar, I'll split that among the profiles. | | | Last edited: by northbloke |

| Posted: | | | | Locally, I do it the same way as you.
The main database should have the SRP in ALL profiles if the children have their own UPCs and were previously released individually. | | | Hal |

| Posted: | | | | Same as the others. I put the full price in the boxset parent and leave the child profiles set to 0.
Only ones I split the price are the "double" packs where you pay once price for 2 individually UPCed movies each with thier own keepcase and they just shrinkwrap them together. I've noticed recently Target and Best Buy have a ton of these now.
I also do not split the cost for special deals like a Columbia House situation where you buy one movie for $25 and all the rest are $5 each. I know some people take the total price paid for all the DVDs and then divide it evenly between them all. I'll put $25 for the one they charged me full price and $5 for the rest just as I paid for them. | | | "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" - Douglas Bader "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Douglas Adams |
