1. The films/shows may be unique to the UK.
2. Even if UK shows are available the prices are horrendous eg Red Dwarf Amazon canada $219.99 (marketplace $132.68), Amazon UK GBP22.47 (= CAD$36.00) |

Plus the cost of streaming I suppose you could add to that.

Re: DVDs from UK
Hi All
Just an update about BLAH DVD from the UK, have brought loads of dvd and stuff, never had any probs from customs ( touch wood ) and they are really quick, had some dvds that arrived after 4 days , can't complain about that. catch you all later................ |
Re: DVDs from UK
I bought my last DVD's from amazon uk and didn't have to pay extra postage for sending to Canada - they came in split packages and I didn't get charge duty.
I always check the prices on all the sites and work out $ - £ what is the best deal even if I was to pay duty etc.. and with the present exchange rate the UK price always wins. I even priced the Apple Ipad and it is a better deal in Commet UK than BestBuy in Canada or US. the only think we have to watch is buying blue rays - it is hit or miss if they work, some do, some don't although we got told to buy a cheap blue ray (Walmarts) as it will play all regions. Disney DVD's in particuarly were lots cheaper in the UK - the only thing was we then don't get disneymoviereward points, although they now have a UK one so I can email the points to my daughter. |
