WHERE CAN I BUY THESE TWO HD DVD's?

LES TRIPLETTES DE BELLEVILLE (THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE)




A France only release with no english language options I believe.


And:

ELEPHANTS DREAM







I know there is a German HD DVD of this, I'm not sure about any other releases.





I've put a 'wanted' ad in the HD DVD classifieds section, so if anybody has these to sell please respond there.

Any help is very much appreciated

If problems with Amaxon then Xploited, although not the cheapest, are good for most imports.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Oddly enough I can find the German version of Elephant Dreams on Amazon France, but not the French LES TRIPLETTES DE BELLEVILLE

Does Amazon France charge the same flat rate of six euros for postage as Amazon.de? If so, I'd rather order more than one title from them to make it worthwhile.

Again, thanks for the suggestion!

Xploited Cinema is the only place I can find LES TRIPLETTES DE BELLEVILLE.

It seems strange to be ordering a French release from a US vendor. Their price of $36.95 takes the cost just above the £18 customs limit, so I'll be stung for tax as well the postage on top of the price of the disc. So if it's possible to buy this closer to home i.e. within the EU that would be my first choice.

When I've ordered from them they're customs friendly so should be no problem.

customs dont charge every package thats over £18

its more of a random process, whereby you should expect to be charged but sometimes youre lucky enough not to be

Thanks guys, I've ordered LES TRIPLETTES DE BELLEVILLE from Xploited Cinema.

The price is a bit of shock after the El Cheapo fire sale deals on HD DVD's

At least it's on it's way
