    Just spotted this on AintItCoolNews.

    An absolutely fantastic price.. only for 24 hours or til stocks runs out apparently. Think Amazon.com still do shipping to Ireland.

    You won't get it cheaper than this.. and be quick about it.

    Prison Break - Complete Season 1

    PS - oh.. and it's the Region 1.

    that's a great price and a great purchase especially if you've not yet caught the program

    Great price, so many shows I have to catch up on!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Timans


    I just bought it for 44euro on CDWOW.

    Oh well, it's pure brilliance anyway.

    I've ordered two, will I be hit by customs or what is the story with amazon.com?

    Thanks.

    I bought two boxsets from them a year or two back ('Undeclared' and 'Lost - Season 1') and both were fine and arrived customs free.

    I heard that Amazon.com don't ship via the warehouse they have in Germany anymore so customs could get you, not 100% sure on this though. I can't even remember who told me.

    If I am hit by customs, how much is it likely to be roughly?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Mezcita


    Feck. Just remembered the whole customs thing after reading your post and I've just bought 3 sets as prezzies.

    As far as I know anything under $50 should not be taxed. Over that and they are able to apply charges of 21%. The way they do it is delivering a letter rather than your item, which states that as soon as the extra amount is paid they will deliver.

    That said, I've bought things from the States before which got through.

    If you bought one you are under the customs threshold.
    2 or more puts you over most likely.
    Charge around ~21% I think of the cost plus about €5 handling fee.
    So about €13-14 on two, still a good price.

    Is it possible to get them to send the three seperately?

    They will send the three seperately anyways.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 864 ✭✭✭Aedh Baclamh


    But Customs will still hold on to the 3?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    Typical, I was just in New York and bought it for $47
