Hi

I would be grateful if anyone could tell me where to get the cheapest DVD's
in the UK (pref non mail order).

Many thanks

Does the non-mail order not include Region 1 DVD's & Internet Purchases
then?

Various Shops are doing offers, e.g. WH Smiths buy 1 get 1 half price....

The best deals are to be had on the Internet though...

That's a toughie - it's usually mail order that is the cheapest,
because they don't need to pay for a shop, staff etc and can order
stock when required instead of having it sitting around waiting for
customers.

I personally use

http://www.play247.com
http://www.dvdmod.com
http://www.dvdworld.co.uk

There are many others...

Has sadly finished!


WHSmiths/Woolies still do 'Buy 1, One 1/2 Price'... (Most are slightly under
RRP as well...)

MVC do good prices, plus there's loads of £2 off vouchers around...

Game are doing 3 for £40, although they don't have a terribly extensive
range.

I live in the United States and since I find the best stuff on DVD
comes out in Region 2, I tend to import my DVDs from the Netherlands
from a place called DVD Express. Shipping to Britain I think is €3 +
€1 (4 Euros) and I think they have titles a few pence cheaper than Play
247. The URL is http://euro.dvdexpress.com/. Their sister company,
http://www.dvdexpress.com/ has a great Region 1 selection as great
prices too, if you like me were to get an out-of-region player with
NTSC support.
