Anyone ever purchased from www.dvdcrave.co.uk?

On the look for some certain DVDs cheap and came across this site (https://www.dvdcrave.co.uk) selling them for a decent price.

Have never heard of this company before, so a little wary of purchasing. Just wondered if anyone has shopped with them before?

Thanks in advance

    recently bought 3 dvds from DVDCRAVE.CO.uk when they arrived they came from Malaysia all look well dodgy and don't play. No phone number on site (alarm bells should of rung there) and they do not answer emails. So what is next step to get money back ???

    Not to be confused with https://www.dvdcrave.com.au, who are really great ...
  • I so wish i looked on her first, we ordered 3 DVD's from them they all arrived from Malaysia although it's a uk site, none in cases and it looks like fake copies as they are roughly finished and don't work.

    read the T&C first i wish i had, it says non-refunable and non-returnable, says everything, i also thought i would be protected as they only accpet payment via paypal but they only cover you for the delivery of the items.

    DO NOT BUY FROM THEM, wish i could do something to get the shut down.
  • Do not order from this website, they sell illegal copies of DVD's send out of Malaysia (if you are lucky enough to receive them at all) and they do not even work.

    This website is a copy of the Australian website of DVDCrave so be careful do not use www.dvdcrave.co.uk.

    I think it's a buyer beware situation.
    These are my thoughts and no one else's, so like any public forum advice - check it out before entering into contracts or spending your hard earned cash!

    I don't know everything, however I do try to point people in the right direction but at the end of the day you can only ever help yourself!
