Hi,

Can I just check that this company is custom friendly as I wanted to order I am Legend blu ray gift set and Wanted blu ray gift set. Seems to be the cheapest I can find on the net for these titles.

I've done a few searches and found some conflicting views that they are and in other threads that they're not.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Have i got a case if i complain to these?ordered 2 items ,on their own under customs limit but over if shipped together.well that's what Tower did and i got hit with an £11.60 charge i thought as these charged $4.99 per item that meant orders would be posted individually

You should have allowed one to ship then order the other.
