    i have 2 agree, amazon prices are usually cheaper than most, they would have to be, or why would so many people buy from them?, Dave

    I e-mailed them today and although the reply was pretty generic, they did apologise and advised they would "push" my order through to get it quicker.

    Lo and behold, 95% goods have now been despatched.

    You could sign up for 1 months free trial of Amazon Prime, then cancel after Christmas.

    I ordered 2 dvds on Sunday, one turned up on tuesday and I am still waiting on the other. That was with free postage.

    Really? So that's why I paid just £49 for the complete Buffy the Vampire Slayer DVD set on Amazon when everyone else wants well over £100 for it?

    And most of the time I find Amazon cheaper even without a sale.

    Was that the season 7 box set or if not let me know which one it was.

    I think it might have been this - the complete set ie ALL the series. Not £49.99 any more though £59.odd:confused: , but still better than the £179.99 RRP.

    I'm very impressed with Amazon today. I placed an order for an external hard drive for my computer on Monday 8th, and since I didn't need it urgently I opted for the free delivery and so I was not surprised to have the checkout tell me estimated despatch would be 11th December and estimated delivery window 16th - 22nd December.

    I couldn't believe my eyes when I found it waiting on the doorstep first thing this morning Friday 12th. Full marks for that one Amazon; thankyou for the speedy service and for saving me some money. :T

    mmmmm That is cheap a bit to cheap really must be a misprint/error on the product somewhere.

    Might find disc 6 is "debbie does dallas" or something:rotfl:
