That's an amazing price. I'd pick up the R1 if I didn't already own the UK R2.

Do they only last one day?
£11 is an amazing price for 24 S5. I haven't seen it.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 22 Nov 2007, 19:24

As it's a Black Friday deal I wouldn't imagine it lasting too long.

How do you get it to display in £?

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:00

it displays in pounds for me at the final checkout stage.there is also a switch currency button there.don't know how you managed to get this to $13 shipping

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:14

$13 = Expedeited (sp?) shipping

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:19

why are you picking the dearer shipping option.just pick standard international shipping.you aren't in a hurry for it are you?

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:25

No, the price still doesnt display for me in £ BTW, only $

There's no button.

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:40

well buy in dollars then,it might even work out cheaper.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 23 Nov 2007, 15:52

Thanks. Seems too - 44p off

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 23 Nov 2007, 21:05

There is a button directly below where it says what the total is. It's not very clear. I couldn't see it at first.

Standard delivery at Amazon is still Airmail. Expedited is just expensive.

Where are you getting "£11 delivered" for 24: S5 from?
Int'l shipping is $13.

Try choosing all shipping options next time

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 24 Nov 2007, 09:31

Don't worry I chose the cheaper option ($6)

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 24 Nov 2007, 15:39

Phew! I was up all night worrying

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 24 Nov 2007, 16:07

I'm glad you can now sleep soundly

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 01 Jan 2008, 23:54

For once a decent selection:

You can save additonal 10% if you were enrolled in the High-Def program.
Also, if you use your Amazon Credit Card, then enter DVDSAVE5 code at the final checkout to save additional $5 off over $50

Blu-Ray discs are coming out to be like $6 a piece for those with the above program/credit card.

I think I'll go for Die Hard and The Shining. Fox BDs are ordinarily expensive. It comes to $36.92. £9.28 each, cool.

Any ideas guys about the "HD Program"?
