Where to buy R1 DVDs?
Now DVDSoon are about as useless as a chocolate teapot, i have no preferred R1 supplier to use. I was wondering what peoples 'preferred' supplier for R1 disks are at the moment?
preferably someone cheap and with free delivery but im option to any suggestions...............where is the best place to order from right now that offers the best balance of cost and service?

I use playusa.com. They aren't cheap, but they are reliable.
I've not used them for ages but the DiscEmporium were very good... unfortunately they too aren't cheap.
However, as I get older I far more incliend to pay a bit extra for a fast and friendly service.

amazon.co.uk marketplace sellers (new and used)
As I get older, I try and save as much money as I can.
just type in NTSC after the disk title you are looking for, great prices too.
playusa.com are a bit too pricey for me (most of the time)

PlayUSA are ok for anything under £18 but dont try ordering anything over that amount unless you are happy to pay any customs charges.
Personally I use either CDWow, Axel Music, Movietyme or Loaded247 for my R1 orders as they have good prices and are all customs friendly.

I would say CD wow but it is also worthwhile checking out axel music, I've just pre-ordered Star Wars Episode Three ROTS for the handsome price of £9.99... Which is not be sniffed at!!!!

DVDImport.com (Canada) and DVD Pacific (USA) have low prices
- the former could take a while to fill your order and deliver, and will take payment immediately (i.e. before shipping) in CA$
- the latter is transparant regarding item availability, and also charges shipping which may still keep your item(s) cheaper (remember the £18.00 customs limit on items value), and charges upon shipping in US$
Have also recently used Playcentric.com, which is Canada-based and charges (upon shipping) in US$ - very competitive pricing.
Playusa.com is usually quite expensive.
CD-Wow may be cheaper on occasions (esp when using e-vouchers), but its R1 catalogue is limited.
