    I've used www.amazon.co.uk and www.amazon.com (US) quite a lot and always found them to be decently priced with some good special offers and pretty fast to turnaround the order and deliver it. Also, their website is massive and has a huge amount of information on it.

    Blackstar ( www.blackstar.co.uk ), based in Belfast are quite well known/respected - but the one time I tried using them, I cancelled my order because it was taking way too long.

    Let me say that I used to use amazon alot but I dropped them like a nagging girlfriend after coming across express.com

    They ship MUCH faster than amazon and they are cheaper too! Take my word for it m8.

    Be careful using Express.com, I believe they are in financial trouble in the US. I use www.amazon.com & www.absound.ca for any region1 purchases, but given the downward direction of the euro I buy hardly any US DVD's any more (A&B Sound were hacked recently so their site is down, but they were the cheapest and the site is back up tomorrow so hears hoping they still have good prices as well as better security now). Region2's I tend to pick up on any offers in the shops or xtravision who appear to be cheapest for new releases. One place to check out for good prices is Austrialia for Region 4's. Try www.dvdcrave.com or www.ezydvd.com.au , some Aussie DVD's are encoded for region2 as well.

    try http://www.play247.co.uk

    They have free delivery in the EU, and they stock some R1 disks too.

    Yeah - I used to use Blackstar exclusively because of their outstanding customer service, but they have gone up in price recently, and are no longer close to competitive IMHO.

    Play247 is now my DVD shop of choice ... prices are excellent (from what I've seen). The only flaw is that their customer service aint asgood as those nice Blackstar people. Altho, I did have a disk go astray in the post and they replaced it without question, which is good.

    www.jungle.co.uk have good prices , cheap delivery

    But the all irish www.dmgdirect.com with prices in punts is often cheaper , cause of the xchange rate.
