Hi
I was wondering if anybody could help me, I normally order from Play and/or discemporium but I have seen a couple of sites that are based in Canada and offer free shipping (not sure about Customs duty though)and they sell titles that play don't and for reasonable prices eg. bring it on £13.39 etc. so what I am asking (in my long winded way!) is has anyone used DML Sales or Video-Now and if so can you share your opinions before I order.
Thanks

Yes to absound.ca (my fav)
HUGE NO to Video-Now (not just a personal opinion - although it is - other forums concur that they are the proverbial conical steaming pile of !"£$%^&*)
dvdboxoffice do "free" postage but have become a bit slow (and their prices arent that hot - to compensate for the postage?)
dv-depot are decent enough pricewise but not as fast as absound
All just my opinions of course http://www.wvip.co.uk/ubb/biggrin.gif

Yes - its www.absound.ca (http://www.absound.ca)
As previously mentioned the site is pants but they are cheap & quick (2 days from Canada to UK! - usually 4-5days) They appear to have just started to do DVD-A at a sensible price (ELP Brain S.S. is about £15 inc postage)
Check out the "On Sale" link & head for DVD - They are still selling the Spagetti Western Trilogy for about £7.20p! each - Enjoy http://www.wvip.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif
