    Just to let you guys know, I ordered the Alien Quadrilogy Box Set on February 5. It arrived on February 10 and only cost me about £33!

    First time I'd used DVDSoon and I'm well impressed.

    Cheers for the reply m8. would be good to get this site name around.

    Just shows how other sites are ripping you off, compared to dvdsoon's prices.

    just be careful when ordering anything over £18 - as dvdsoon now mark the value on the package and you may well get stung by customs and the royal mail handling fee too.


    www.dvdpricecheck.co.uk is worth a try to double check the prices at several places including www.dvdpacific.com and others that can often be as cheap or cheaper

    www.find-dvd.co.uk is another good price checking site - but only for region 2 dvds.

    On the price check site. i did a search for Rain Man for a example.

    It says the total at dvd soon is GBP8.59

    Which is not the case.its £6.50 as there is NO shipping charge.

    The price checker is adding on postage.

    i presume it'll be updated shortly - DVDsoon just recently re-introduced their "free" (at the same time tons of prices went up - but it was just a freak coincidence - honest) postage offer.

    Dvdsoon was free postage, then they started charging which made me stop ordering BUT there back to free postage and i didn't notice any price increase as u discribed.ive so far bought 34 titles from there, no customs charge on any,and all cheaper than pacific.

    i said they "re-introduced" their free postage, m8.
    A lot of the prices definitely went up - that's a fact.

    And you're pretty luck if you've not been stung by customs on things over £18 because they now declare the actual value on the package (they never used to). DVDPacific are cheaper occassionally and (well the last time i used them they didn't) they didn't declare the full value on the package. Even dvds from cd-wow are begining to get hit by customs occassionally.

    I read about possibly getting stung by Customs before I ordered the Alien Box Set but thought 'what the hell' and I was lucky. I guess its just the same as when you come back from holiday - sometimes they check everyone's suitcases :whistle and other times there's no-one there at all! :thumbs

    Cheapest DVD site I have found and used for the past 2-3 years is

    www.cd-wow.com.hk

    It the cd-wow Hong Kong site and charged in $HK and for example
    Underworld is $HK89 which collates to £6.10 ish, they always seem to be
    £1 or so cheaper than cd-wow.com or cd-wow.net

    cheers
