Thanks: Gave 85, Got 240 | Amazon TV Boxset Deals inc heroes
Just browsing through amazona and noticed some cheap prices for boxsets
Desperate Housewifes Season 1 £14.98 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Desperate-Ho...tit_10_rdssss0
Without A Trace Seasons 2 and 3 £9.98 each http://www.amazon.co.uk/Without-Trac...6890013&sr=1-2 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Without-Trac...6890013&sr=1-1
Heroes Season 1 Marketplace seller £17.72 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-lis...O/ref=dp_olp_2
I actually got this earlier this week. Seller is in OZ but its the official UK R2 release and a bargain at half the amazon price.

Balls, I just ordered Heroes and then realised that it's the standard DVD version.
Tried to cancel but can't see where, hard to believe they are packing it already, onl ordered 2 minutes ago. |

As far as I'm aware you can't cancel a marketplace order once it's placed.
Might be worth contacting the seller and asking them if they would cancel the order?

The eight disc set of recent Miss Marples (Geraldine McEwan version) is £12.99 (or £15 instore)
Sorry - complete rubbish. I meant HMV. Good deal though!

When you've got over 1000 dvds you kinda start to appreciate those single amarays that can hold 7 discs.
Personally, I can't wait for a cheap AU release of Smallville S6.
