I am tempted, but can you imagine the customs charges on that?! £300+ easy... Also it looks very fragile, so what would you do if it turned up all smashed up? Not very likely that you would get a replacement...

DVDslimited ship from the UK so no customs!!!
I'm sure with the cost being so high they're going to make sure it arives it one piece. Having said that can't afford one myself  |

yep dvdslimited are taking into account customs charges they will have to pay by importing it themselves presumably. So considering the cheapest this set was going for was £140 in Japan with a maximum of £40 customs charges. I don't think a £70 mark up for something like this is that extravagant for a dvd retailer.

I phoned them at around midday and they had between 12-15 left. I know of about 3 or 4 people who have bought one since, and no doubt all the talk regarding this place having them in stock on three different forums will have an impact! I rekon they'll be sold out by the weeknd and so do DVDsLimited themselves!
