Re: What HD DVD player to buy?

Keep your eyes peeled to the classifieds on a daily basis. DVD and Blu-ray Player Classified Adverts - Page 3 - AVForums.com Think in the region of £50 min. Trouble is that most sellers are bundling their players with some HD DVD discs and this pushes the price up....but you are immediately in possession of a decent collection and player and it's an excellent HD set-up for silly money.

Hi,I'm a trading Mod in that section and BrianPK is right they do go for £50.If you also look you will find some cheap blu-ray players come up now and again.Have seen some go for as little as £45.

My gut feeling is:

E1=£40
EP10=75
EP30=50
EP35=75
XE1=£150-200
