The CD WOW Bargains Thread!

True but I'm not including that as it pauses during the DC and as you say only has DD2.0 (which is especially odd when the IC has DD5.1/DTS). Fair enough "technically" it too is the DC but it's equally a mess.

John Ford's Prisoner of Shark Island: Master's of Cinema - £10.99 before discount. (Brad, buy this.)

R3HK Johnnie To's Exiled Uncut LE - £8.99 B.D.

I didn't know that this film was released cut. When, why, where was the film cut and by who?

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 20 Dec 2006, 18:44

Is Exiled any good?

p.s - No films for me (probably) until after Xmas.

Reportedly, it's cracking - I haven't seen it. Anyway if it is anything like Breaking News then it should be great.

Breaking News was a turd, I hope its bugger all like that in any way

Volver: HK R3 - £8.99 before vouchers (£1 voucher link already applied): http://www.cd-wow.com/detail_results_2. ... ffid=14753

With DTS over the UK R2 but virtually bare-bones, compared with the 2 Disc SE coming to the UK. I'm waiting.

Fearless: Director's Cut HK R3 for £9.99 before vouchers (£1 Link already applied):

http://www.cd-wow.com/detail_results_2. ... ffid=14753

English Subs and DTS confirmed.

Lovely £7.99 thank you very much

Superman: 4 Disc SE - £7.99 before vouchers (£1 already knocked off):

http://www.cd-wow.com/detail_results_2. ... ffid=14753

Beware it's likely Disc 1 will include the Remixed Mono track and will be hard to replace. I paid a bit more for the UK R2.

Miami Vice region 3 £5.99 before discount and voucher. don't really fancy this but at £3.99 might give it a go 8)

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 11 Jan 2007, 20:18

Nice price. Pity the R1 DC is much more. How come you don't want the HD-DVD?

p.s - I've added the first £1 reduction.

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 11 Jan 2007, 22:47

Don't fancy the movie tbh but i figure at £3.99 if it's any good i can sell/trade it on at no loss then pich up the combo later 8)

Where from? No where I've seen.

It's $22.95 from the USA CD WOW which is £11.72 and £10.50 from DVD Pacific so both more than £9.99 at CD WOW UK.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 13 Jan 2007, 17:14

Who cares, both prices are shit. Wait a few weeks/months and they will be a lot less, over 10 quid is a joke for any dvd.

Oh that doesn't count as all DVDs will be cheaper down the line. If you want them now £9.99 is a good price.

So not shit at all really.

Thanks for the heads up on Lady in the Water Romero.

I'd like to see it too. I've liked all of his other work and would like the HD-DVD Combo but it's way too pricey on such a risky purchase. If I can't then get rid of the R3 I'll just give it to my brother.

That's virtually the same price as renting it which is what I was going to not. Which is good as I can't be bothered to mess around opening a rental account somewhere, there is no local rental store in my town any more.

Crikey now I've managed to get the USA Voucher working again it's dropped "This Film Is Not Yet Rated" to £7.98.

Shame their are no US Voucher Codes

It's weird how some things are cheaper at the UK Store with £2 off but others are cheaper as the USA Store. For example: Fearless is £7.99 vs. £8.52.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 13 Jan 2007, 19:54

There are USA vouchers, but you have to dump your UK acount with CDWOW and jojn the USA one instead

that way you can get USA voucers, like the footy score ones and the Big brother ones etc..

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 13 Jan 2007, 20:01

Not so Mr. Romero. I just paid £2.64 for Lady in the Water and used my UK account no problem:

https://www.bulletsnbabesdvd.com/forums/ ... 0585#70585

In short you CAN use your UK account. I'm not sure what gave you this idea as I've used my UK account loads of time as CD-WOW.US.

@ Eva / Romero: Is £6.92 still shit for "This Film Is Not Yet Rated"?

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 13 Jan 2007, 20:49

Damn I'd like to get the DD Seven Swords for the commentary

Should I get rid of my HK SE?

grim_tales wrote:Should I get rid of my HK SE?

That's up to you. If I wanted a better version I'd bother. It will only be £6.92 delivered.

I have the 3 Disc HK SE with Full-rate DTS (the R1 is bound to be Half-rate) + English subtitled Director's Commentary but I suspect the Bey Logan one is better, Tsui Hark has never been very good at commentaries.

Actually I'd say the R1 Two Disc SE and HK R3 Three Disc SE are about even. I'd opt for the R1 SE now as Half-rate DTS is fine and it means they've not needed to split the film across two discs.

The extras are much better on the HK R3 Three Disc SE than the HK R3 Two Disc SE. All are English subtitled too.

What example are you basing this comment on?
