Where from Hung?

HungFist · Post by **HungFist** » 14 Oct 2012, 13:51

eBay.

There's an affordable new edition coming in a few months. But with pretty ugly artwork. You'll find it on amazon etc.

I got that when it first came out and seem to recall it being cheaper than the single UK version, bargain of the century!

Received:
Synecdoche New York (US Blu-ray)
The Shiver of the Vampires (US Blu-ray)

A nice surprise as they were ordered on 24/08, didn't arrive, got refunded, then received an e-mail on 11/10 saying they were being held at customs and to disregard said e-mail if I'd already been refunded. The packages hadn't even been opened, so perhaps the seller just hadn't paid enough postage or tax.

Indiana Jones BD set
How I Spent My Summer Vacation BD

Both trades at CEX...having another spring clean of my collection

Someone traded their INDIANA JONES collection already? Judging by CEX prices for Blu Rays I bet you had to 'spring clean' a lot of shit to get those.

Do CEX or Cex (sex) as it says on the logo taken Region A/import BDs/DVDs?

Do you prefer them to Music Magpie?

They only accept titles that have a BBFC rating.

Let me know what you think of the Indonesian score compared to the US one.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 23 Oct 2012, 19:44

Of course

Actually now the BD only cost me $17.99 all in because Amazon gave me a shipping refund when it arrived a week late, thanks Amazon

you get more in cex if you exchange rather than ask for cash,music magpie are handy if you have a shedload of region 1's you don't want...excpect buttons though sadly

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 24 Oct 2012, 03:34

Not looking to exchange titles so I guess Magpie is easier as they pick up your boxes via courier and many of my titles are imports.

How much are the customs fees in the UK?

gasteropod · Post by **gasteropod** » 25 Oct 2012, 15:01

Received: Blade (UK Blu-ray).

Edit: Wow, the picture quality is amazing, the film looks brand new. If only I had a surround sound system capable of HD audio.

A bomb, customs fee for The Gsme BD was 11 quid

Or do you mean the customs limit? In the UK the limit you can buy without incurring customs is £15.

why do you insist on buying from places that are a magnet to customs? surely you'd be better off paying a few quid more and buying from somewere customs-safe

I think it's 20% of the cost of item in custom taxes plus £8 post office handling fee. So if I'm right that would be £12 for a £20 item. If the item is liable for tax (i.e. over £15) then so is the postage.
