Cheapest place to buy Two Towers: EE (R1) for Xmas?

Yes I know I could use DVD Price Checker

- but I want to find the cheapest price and also garantee (sp?) the US cover (no French writing

), I think I could get it for £16.99 (£3 off) from CD-WOW with a 10% off link + a £1 voucher, will they have the US cover?
Or is it cheaper anywhere else?

Around £18 delivered from [url=http://www.dvdpacific.com/item.asp?ID=540753]DVD Pacific[/url] - garaunteed US cover (no French).

No customs either cos price is around £15.

I take it you're only interested in the R1?

As for the version on CD WOW I'd imagine it's the US R1 but the best thing to do is ask them:

help@cdwow.com

Oh and use DVD Price Checker

p.s - How is £18 around £15?

Yeah I'm only interested in the R1.
If CD-WOW have the guarantted US cover I'll get it from them I think

Brad,
Bisc means the price before shipping (it'd be about $5US as they charge for shipping per DVD in the set) is around £15.
I think I may have got the US cover when I ordered FOTR from CD-WOW (that was back when they werent customs friendly) but the sticky thing on the back of the card had a French translation on it as well as English and a Canada "14A" sticker, it didnt look like the Canada version though.

Does anyone with FOTR: EE R1/R2 (maybe the R2 is the same I don't know) know how to get the Two Towers preview on the 2nd disc?
For the R1, Profiler says - "Highlight Chapter 40 - the last Chapter on Disc 2 and press down on your remote" - clearly thats' bollocks - Chapter 40 is not the last chapter, 48 (Fan Club credits) is and I've tried it there too but all it does is get me back to the start of the scene selection menu.
Wierd....
EDIT - done it, you had to highlight Chapter 48, not 40 - then you got the Two Towers (Theatrical Version) preview.
Brad have you seen TTT: EE? (I suspect you have).

E-mail CD WOW and ask, they'll tell you which version they sell. To be safe just ask if it's the Canadian R1 or US R1.
