£11.20 for Rambo 4, holy shit! Nice one thanks dude. Cheers for the heads up on their prices. I was going to wait for a few days until I get paid but won't.

Cheers Salty. It was £10.99 ($21.85) and is now £11.50 ($22.85).

Yesterday was hectic at work. I was in Oxford all day and then had to rush back to get to the Theatre. For the first time in weeks I didn't get a chance to use Bullets

well the HD DVD of 2001 was as cheap as £3.60 so no that Blu Ray aint

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 26 Jun 2008, 19:18

Dude, you cannot compare HD-DVD with BD directly. They're different formats, not everyone is Dual Format. The question is, is this a BD bargain?

.

p.s - Where was it £3.60 anyway? I'd be interested for that price.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 26 Jun 2008, 19:22

£3.99 at HMV + 10% Quidco, or Play with 4% Quidco

but your stuffed now as they sold out instantly, even I was considering it and I am no fan of the film, but its one of them titles that everyone jumps on, so you have to be quick

Between HMV and Play nearly all have droopped to around £4 (some wont budge mind you).

Fifth Elemnt went up $1 today

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 26 Jun 2008, 19:39

Doh! You're right

.

It's an amazing film. It's on my BD list but for that price I'd have picked up the HD-DVD.

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 04 Jul 2008, 18:44

i received an order from these the other day,they seem to reship from the uk and the packaging had no value on whatsoever.so i don't know if this means they are customs safe or not.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 04 Jul 2008, 18:52

Oh yeah, my Rambo cardboard box is the same. Surely it must mean they're customs safe?

Are there any Tower Records stores in The UK?

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 04 Jul 2008, 19:04

Tower pulled out of the uk a few years ago. i thought i heard the usa division went bankrupt a while back.this tower.com are connected to caiman.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 04 Jul 2008, 19:15

Ah, that would make sense then. Caiman have an Amazon.co.uk listing under the username Caiman_UK.

They definitely ship from within The UK. I think we can say with 99% assurance Tower.com are Customs safe

Batman Begins blu-ray £11 delivered

http://www.tower.com/batman-begins-chri ... /112085340

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 24 Jul 2008, 00:32

for info i ordered witchblade the complete series for my brother last week,around £23 & shipping,way cheaper than anywhere else.it arrived yesterday with no value on the package so no customs

they obviously like MT reship within the uk.btw the $4.99 shipping is per item not per disc unlike axel or pacific,so a big box set costs the same as a single disc.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 24 Jul 2008, 11:45

Fantastic, thanks Salty.

Any ideas on this one? -

Do Deep Discount mark the full value of both items on the parcel (like Amazon) or just the one you paid for?

Received Sarah Connor yesterday,about £17 delivered and a week before release day.this lot are great !

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 14 Aug 2008, 21:03

Nice one. I'll probably get that when the UK BD is "cheap", oddly the BD is getting the extras but not the UK DVD.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 26 Aug 2008, 17:37

During e-mail conversation, I asked and this was their response:

"Caiman is our parent company, but we are a separate business entity."
