Anyway to get more than £2 off?
Two options:
1. £2 Off
2. USA Voucher Link + $2 USA Voucher Code = $13.95/£7.30
So no £2 off is your best bet.

. Sendit haven't given out vouchers for months, years really.
All I can suggest is searching Google.
Did that and couldn't find any.
Oh well. Is cause x-files box sets are £12.89 each or something like that there and my girlf is wanting to get some, so thought I'd see if I can save her even more money!

Bugger, first one in ages:

I'd ordered The Prestige R3 which is the same price as Casino Royale R3 which I pre-ordered (maybe that has something to do with it?) and that went through fine.
It's
"very" much pot luck, hopefully it's not a new trend. Prices:
1. The Prestige R3 - TWO USA Vouchers £7.37
2. The Prestige UK R2 - JUST USA Voucher link £7.90 (cheaper than the R3 with the USA Link) - It's cheaper than using no link but a code
3. The Prestige R3 - ONE UK Voucher - £8.99
So in short it's still worth using the USA Voucher Link but no voucher code, it's still cheaper than using any UK voucher period. I wonder if it's more touchy to use the USA instead of UK links/vouchers?
Hmm shall I re-order? I was in two minds to order in the first place. It's a good film but it's not like I need it right now.

cd-wow.US University of Iowa voucher link is dead, it has been replaced by a voucher code.
http://www.cd-wow.us/uiowa
The days of wine, roses and cd-wow.US voucher combos are over.

I am sure I have heard rummblings of another one just like it, will have to see where I read about it soonish

but there was 2 or 3 like this Ioah one a while back, need to see if they are lurking. As hell I use this $ one more than any others, in combination with the $2 off vouchers too makes dvds so cheap.

You must be misspelling stuff on purpose a lot of time. Eg your constant misspelling of Kurosawa as Kurasawa.

Whatever, it just makes you look dumber in the eyes of others. Whatever floats your boat.

Your tune would likely be different if this place was run like a dictatorship like TheDVDForums.
This forum does brush close to Fascism whenever that douche-bag Toge awakens every once in awhile.

Well obviously as I cannot swear or tell people my mind on there

(or talk about vouchers etc..)
but I still do the spelling mistake thing, only for one reason like I always have done. I dont read most of what I type as I type so quickly as honestly I cannot be arsed to spend 10 minutes proof reading etc.. some people spend so long on some post it makes me ill reading them, get to the point I say ussually.

Doh!

. I wonder if CD WOW are going to crack down after the recent BPI ruling. I had one of my orders cancelled not long ago.

Bugger! Thankfully my last order using the Iowa link was sent last week.
I hope there's a replacement lurking somewhere.

The IOWA link still works, but what's this guff about being for USA/Canada only? They've added such a disclaimer at the top right of the page. I'm not using the UK site so I can pay more than Americans do. Stuff that. I'm gonna try an order later this evening and see if it still accepts. I'm not wasting money for no good reason.

Well it's accepted my order... so we'll see what happens next?

Yup most vouchers and links are not for anyone but the UK, but people still get their dvds, rarley do people get turned away

Guys please report back if you get orders cancelled or they dispatch. As Romero says the majority of the time it actually goes through fine.
I've had one order cancelled but haven't tried since, no reason other than nothing I want. I do have a CD on pre-order which hasn't been cancelled but it's not close to ship date yet.

They've changed it back

Yeah, but you've seen the new disclaimer?
All I'm saying is that they would technically be within their rights to cancel non-US/CA orders.
Fingers crossed.

Yep. I knew what you meant, thanks though. I'm not being sarcastic.

They always have been, if you've used two vouchers one way or another. Hence why I asked if people could post their outcomes.
