If anyone is looking to score a Blu Ray player for cheap, check out your local Walmart for a Sony BGP-S2500. It's a Walmart exclusive that was a black friday deal that no one wanted. I picked one up for $45.
Manual is here https://docs.sony.com/release/BDPS2500_EN.pdf
It has HDMI, but no Coax. It has WiFi but no RJ45. HDMI cable not included. No 4K upscaling.

The Nerds have confirmed that MasterCard, Discover, Citi and select Chase cards offer price protection. Visa doesn’t say which cards offer it as a perk. To find out whether your Visa card offers price protection, call your card issuer.

Buy drive from Amazon. If you have Amazon Prime, you should get it in like 2 days. Then just do a return on the new Amazon drive. Don't think there's a restock fee if item is unopened and within return period.
