$15.99 to $20 will likely be the price of the 1-disc. The 2-disc has a MSRP of $39.99, which means most people will pay between $25 to $30. The latest Sin City: Recut & Extended would be my most recent example. I paid $27 for it. I tried to find it for $20 or less, but couldn't anywhere. Someone mentioned finding it at their Wal-Mart for $20, but the my local Wal-marts were selling it for $31.

With the studios now releasing 1- and 2-disc versions simultaneously on opening week, stores are giving its discounts to the 1-disc versions to the $15-20 price range. The 2-disc sets are not receiving the same discount, especially if their MSRP is $39.99.
