    Link here.

    Yes, HD DVD = Betamax, etc, etc. :rolleyes:

    ..but if you already have a player, this is good value at 6 quid a disk!

    Dunno what they're like for delivery times and look like they're expecting a lot of orders for this deal, so delays likely I'd say, but at that price I'll be happy enough! :p

    Attention International Customers
    This title will incur a $20.00 shipping & insurance charge in addition to the international price.

    So is €31 all inclusive? Any custom duties?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 324 ✭✭johnnyflav


    I've just got my receipt from them, paid with paypal, says

    Sub-Total: $AU31.66 (GST Free)
    Delivery costs will be added where applicable.

    Your delivery option for this order is:
    All international orders are shipped "Air Mail" via our postal system.


    Didn't charge the $20 supplement or the shipping. I've not ordered from these before, should I be worried...:confused:

    Good point - As it says on the site, customs duties are payable according to your country's policies.

    There are threads here covering what is and is not likely to incur duties.

    €31 includes the additional AUD$20 shipping and assumes no additional duties, but, of course, your mileage may vary. They will also mark your package 'gift' if you would like to give to as a present-although they say the price is also printed! :)

    Sounds good to me so, cheers. If it stays under the €35 mark I'll be a happy camper.

    They're shipping is very slow but I ordered stuff of them a while back and it eventually arrived. The shipping prices arent on your invoice but there is a list of shipping charges on the website somewhere


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,650 ✭✭✭shayser


    They will charge the €20 insurance/shipping, but they will mark package at a value below the €22 (actually marked mine AU$22).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 324 ✭✭johnnyflav


    Alright got the total bill from paypal

    Authorization Amount: $32.00 AUD
    Capture Amount: $51.66 AUD



    Funding Source Used

    MasterCard Card XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX: €31.68 EUR

    So as OP said, close to €31 (even with the ridiculous exchange of paypal)

    Great bargain :D:D

    And it's been shipped today.

    Says "Currently out of stock" on website. Looks like I was too late for this one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,995 ✭✭✭✭blorg


    Anyone know of anywhere else that is doing HD DVD clearouts? (Preferably with cheap/free postage.)

    I just went through and ordered four harry potter films individually (they are only missing the chamber of secrets) along with Land of the dead and the frightners all in HDDVD and It came to a mere €24.00 with change. I'm sure chamber will pop up somewhere to complete the collection later.

    Most online shops. I got heroes season 1 for £25 + £2 for delivery from amazon.co.uk. Also got BSG season 1 for £19 (including delivery) from dvd.co.uk. HMV.co.uk are selling loads of hd dvds for £5 but charge another £2.50 for delivery.

    All hd dvds are region free so check out amazon.com, you'll ger really good prices with the exchange rate at the moment.

    This offer is up and running again guys.
    Same link as the OP

    EDIT: When I checked this while ago, the price was actually $34.83 + shipping. But when I went to order it a few minutes later, the price had reduced to $31.66 + shipping! Strange, but true!

    Cheers, just ordered there. Didn't tell me how much shipping was going to cost though. Still a great bargain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭Doodlebug


    Yeah they must've just come back in stock - mine were only dispatched today. BTW, shipping is AUD$20 for this box-set as mentioned above.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭Doodlebug


    Well they arrived this morning anyway. For anyone wondering what delivery times are like - thats a good sign I think! Delivered in 5 days - not bad (even if it went out of stock for a week almost immediately after ordering!).

    Alls well that ends well! :) I would order from them again anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    What value did they put on the package ie. did you get charged VAT?

    I had it delivered last week, they marked the value at $20 so I didn't get hit with VAT.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭Doodlebug


    Ditto for me! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Mine arrived this morning, and they also put the value of $20 on the box.

    Excellent service in all fairness. 10 days from Australia and no tax. Delighted.
