Re: Samsung BD-P1500/XEU - Blu Ray Disc Player

Its £171.50 now what a bargain. I bought mine from Amazon about 3 weeks ago when it was £189. I read somewhere that Amazon refund you the difference if they reduce the price in the first month. I just had a look on Amazons website and I can't find any mention of it.

Can anyone confirm if Amazon do this?

Edit: I've fired an e-mail off to Amazon CS - worth a try.

Yes they do,

Find a link on their page that allows you to contact them. Then send a email there to them asking for the price difference back for the item. They send you email to confirm when its done.

Re: Samsung BD-P1500/XEU - Blu Ray Disc Player

Down to £166 inc the extra disc - so tempted by this - would replace my PS3 60GB as that just overkill for some movies

Is it way better than the Sony BD300?

I think so, but how much better will the Sony BD350 be?

Re: Samsung BD-P1500/XEU - Blu Ray Disc Player

You should have addedd one from the list through the link provided on the BD-p1500 page and then added a code when you checked ou tot get the free film - if you have paid already might be best to give customer services a ring and plead for the free film!
