    Buy it at Amazon.com

    Should work out at €44.56 with shipping... a bargain you can really "sink your teeth into"! *

    Of course it's liable for customs at that price.. but even if you were charged, it'd still be very good value!

    * I'm here all week... please tip your waitress!

    €44.65 - Region 1, got a notice about it being R1 and that some Amazon.com customers had trouble with Regional Code Enhanced discs even with Region Free players, hope I didn't make a mistake :D

    ha, insane. I've just started watching Angel again..

    Sorry.. should have mentioned it was R1 alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,582 ✭✭✭TouchingVirus


    Ahh no, sure I knew it'd be R1 because it was coming from over there, it was more the whole "Beware, some people have had problems with Regional Code Enhanced discs even in their region free players" that got me thinking that this was a bit of a 'risk'. I found no evidence this boxset was once of those enhanced DVD's though :)

    What's the deal on ordering from amazon.com instead of co.uk?

    Likelihood of getting customs stung, and delivery time?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,582 ✭✭✭TouchingVirus


    Delivery time was 10 days and the sticker on the box said it came from Auckland in NZ not actually the USA.

    If you order a tonne of stuff from Amazon.com and it shows up in customs with the docket saying $500 USD is the value you'll get torn asunder with customs - As usualy it comes down to what you bought, how much it cost, and general luck :D

    I got stung for VAT @ 21% but not customs duty? Strange..... I think Customs and Excise are paying a lot more attention these days :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,582 ✭✭✭TouchingVirus


    That's pretty crap there smccarrick, but even at 21% VAT it's a bit of a steal

    You can buy this off amazon.co.uk for not much more that the price in post 1, considering the current exchange rate.

    Also, great deals on buffy, Babylon5 and others.

    I was looking at The Wire 5 DVD Boxset, and on amazon.com it's $89.99 (E65ish) and amazon.co.uk it's £89.98 (E95ish)

    Its £86 on the hut, with free delivery, and no nasty surprises from Customs and Excise.
