Bargains at DVD Soon & DVD Pacific

The thing DVD Box Office when I used to use them took as long as DVD Soon (technically longer as all the DVDs took weeks) but the big difference was they replied to your e-mails!

It's really not asking to much to expect e-mail replies. I don't know they bother with an e-mail system.

To me a few quid is only a few quid. I won't miss it.

Wow I thought you'd never say that. If it comes from you it must be true/fact :mrgreen: . True I have lots to watch in the mean time but that doesn't mean I don't want these DVDs. I hate waiting and having orders outstanding.

I've since posted on DVD Swaps so we will see if they reply to my post.

p.s - Motorcycle Diaries also on my order is a new release.

Here at DVDSoon.com, client satisfaction has always been of utmost importance

Welll that's a load of marketing bollocks.

Thanks for the e-mail. I never got a copy of it and I'm a customer too!

UMD looks like an interesting technology making it possible to watch movies on your Sony PSP. I can't see it really working though with portable DVD players.

I can't believe they're going ahead with two HD formats though. DVD-A vs. SACD all over again :twisted:

Sorry I keep posting this, Dressed To Kill (1980 movie) is $9.98CAD @ DVD Soon, but I don't know if it is the SE.

Also the case is bilingual.

This is the DVD Soon etc . . . Bargains thread.

The Last of the Mohicans: DC - DTS (only the R1 DVDs are the DC) for £5.05 -

http://www.dvdsoon.com/show-title-detai ... r_id=10040

Speaking of TLOTM my DVD finally shipped today. Which is great but "The Motorcycle Diaries" that was only released last month is still as "On Order", which makes no sense as I'm sure it can't be hard to get hold if.

I also finally recieved an e-mail (actually the same e-mail again 2 hours later) from DVD Soon clearly copied from some FAQ to say it could take 4-6 weeks to get a title in stock so I'll wait a wee while yet.

The Last of the Mohicans I paid 3 quid for it

get in there early and they are cheaper, then they go up in price, so you can miss out.

Why are you repeating yourself?

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 02 Apr 2005, 13:49

I have a bad memory

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 30 Apr 2005, 13:00

How much does DVD Soon shipping cost if you dont have the Fidelity Card thing?

The Lone Wolf + Cub films are $15.98CAD.
Dressed To Kill SE is $5.98CAD

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 30 Apr 2005, 13:58

$1.49 the last time I checked.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 30 Apr 2005, 17:12

DVDSOON are staggering at the moment

I have bought over 40 titles in the last 2 weeks all well under 4 quid, most are just over 2 quid for me, some new ones and some oldies, but really I cannot go wrong with them for them prices! it takes some time to find lots you want as theres soooo many dvds out there, but I have spent hours looking and found some stunners!

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 30 Apr 2005, 19:54

Do you do ANYTHING else except buy DVDs? I'm curious do you eat and sleep?

Brad is DVD Soon working for you? I've tried to log in to my account (finally decided to order something

) and I get:

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 07 May 2005, 12:22

The site is only down as its sooo busy as the prices have been slashed so much, I saved about 25 pound by cancelling all my orders and reordering them, thats how low the price are! some are just over 1.50p!!!!!!!! big box sets 5 quid with 7 dvds!!

the whole site latley has been lowering and messing with prices and they cannot get any lower at all. Its amazing, and I wish the site worked better, but its just too damn busy to order everything

I have managed to get some goods, just keep trying as hard as you can as its worth it.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 07 May 2005, 15:19

I'll check out DVD Soon thanks.

I don't sorry know Romero is your man on this one.

p.s - I've moved the TLOTM talk to it's own thread.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 May 2005, 16:23

Another one for Romero..

How do you change your billing details at DVD Soon?
Since I moved house I want to enter a new billing address. It lets me enter a new "shipping" address but the billing address stayed the same (my old house address).

There doesnt seem to be an option to change it.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 07 May 2005, 17:07

Email them and ask it seems the way

actual using that little old change shipping address can make a mess of your account, so best to email and ask them to do it for you

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 May 2005, 17:09

Thanks Romero

I asked them to do it for me.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 07 May 2005, 17:43

Hope they do it quick for you

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 07 May 2005, 17:59

LOL you don't half like crap films "Bring it on" it awful. "Cardigans, The : Live in London" looks interesting though.

I had a look and tried to "advance search" for all DVDs under 4 bucks but the page did nothing. I clicked "submit" it then went to a white page and stopped loading. Weird.

Did that to me a bunch of times when you use PowerSearch. Keep trying it should work eventually.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 07 May 2005, 22:45

Okay cheers. I will do. I'm glad it's not just me.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 08 May 2005, 00:01

Dont bother searcing like that its pointless, just pick a company like warner and look thru all there titles will take you a few minutes to scan all there titles for cheap ones, I went thru all Fox, Warner and Univeral titles took me about 15 minutes to scan about 3000 titles for cheapo ones, problem is I owned most the best deals

still theres thousands of amazing bargain.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 08 May 2005, 00:07

and I have never seen Bring it on so I have no idea if its crap, it just sound and looks interesting so far

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 08 May 2005, 00:16

and Bradavon your gonna get wrong on DVDFORUMS for writing in the DVDSOON Bargains thread

it says ONLY post if you have a deal

It says it all over the thread and in the title, so you will get wrong for that and may get a black mark :shock: you only commented on a bargain and didnt acctually post a bargain and thats a big no no

That's no excuse. If they can't be bothered to pay for a powerful enough server then I can't be bothered to buy from them.

I just tried btw and got the same. I'll try one more time tomorrow. It's not like the title I want I really really want.

There search engine still doesn't work. If I can't find cheap titles then what's the point in the option? I could do what you say Romero but I've already spent enough on DVDs this month and unlike you I have a limit

. I get to the point where I think just because it's cheap it doesn't mean I need to buy it!

Before you say it the DVD was a sub £5 one so I'm willing to wait for those (if I could bloody order it).

romerojpg wrote:and Bradavon your gonna get wrong on DVDFORUMS for writing in the DVDSOON Bargains thread it says ONLY post if you have a deal

A big thanks for the heads up. I've edited my post so should be ok.

Another dumb DVD Forums rule. I was giving useful info too!
