Has anyone been using R3 suppliers?
If so can you recommend any decent ones?
Or as anyone had problems with R3 suppliers? Are they worth the hassle?
For all your R3/R0 needs:
www.dddhouse.com
I've ordered loads from them over the past year; never had any probs.
Very cheap.
e.g. they have the R3 Battle Royale at the moment for HK$40 which is about £3.60!
To be sure not to get 'stitched-up' with a customs charge, I only order 2 discs at a time.

Hello
Do the prices include shipping?
How long can you usually wait to receive your DVD's?
Can you turn the Chinese subtitles off?
Cheers

thudspud - re your queries ...
Do the prices include shipping? - $HK30 usually for shipping
How long can you usually wait to receive your DVD's? - < a week
Can you turn the Chinese subtitles off? - Yes certainly on Western films that I have bought so far like Spy Game The Others
BTW this refers to DDDHouse - top supplier IMO - I only buy one at a time too to save on C&E hassles - my only "complaint" if that's the right term is that they used Recorded Delivery which usually means I have a trip to the Sorting Office as they always seem to call just after you've gone out !
www.coolashop.com doesn't include postage, but well good prices.

Do both these places sell real DVDs or HK-Silvers?

Der - Both appear to sell both DVD & VCD versions - I have only bought DVDS VCDS do not appeal to me on any level ...

Hi, I meant are the DVDs genuine or are they 'Hong Kong Silvers'. I remember when I was in Thailand I could not find anywhere that sold genuine DVDs, they were all HK Silvers.

They are definitely GENUINE Hong Kong Releases, not pirates/ dvd-silvers.
Where they have a 'western' movie for sale it is the official R3 release; (i.e 'The Others') most of the older stuff is not region coded.
Labels they stock include Universe Laser, Chinastar & Megastar releases.
Top DVD supplier.

Excellent. Thanks for the link then. Now if only I could find a R5 supplier outside of Russia. . .
