This in not a COM post, I don't even live in Scotland:

I was in Glasgow over the weekend and I found a shop selling DVDs pretty
cheap

In Sauchiehall Street, at the bottom of the hill next to Burger King and
the Barigain Bookshop, its up a blue painted staircarse. The sign
outside says something like "Trade Music and DVD" but I went in anyway
and it was just ordinary public. They had chart stuff at £14.99 or
thereabouts and a load of older stuff ant £9.99 and £12.99.
They had CDs and videos as well.

Again, not a COM post. I promise.

Maybe they meant trade as in exchange?

Yes, They're very good. Another good one is "Widescreens" of Trongate
if they are still going (I haven't been for a while.)

In London MisterCD sells dvd's for 12 quid brand new in shrink wrap, bought
a few myself, mainly music ones tho.
Selection is relatively good but not brill.
The best thing is walking into Virgin's just round the cnr and seeing exact
sames titles badged up at 19.99 - what a rip off.

Are there any other stores in London selling inexpensive DVDs?

I KNEW someone would ask this :-)
I am 99.9% sure its in Berwick St Soho. If you go down from Oxford St its
about a 2 min walk and its on the right hand side with a small yellow shop
front.
The only other road i may be getting confused with is Wardour St which is no
big deal because they are next to each other and run parallel to each
other - so basically if it ain't one- its the other.
Most chart CD's are £10 too. In fact most CD's are from £7 with some real
bargains (all brand new too)
The only downside is that they only accept CASH as payment AFAIK - but
check.

Good luck and happy spending
