Cheaper dvd site - anyone used before?

I would keep clear of this website. Absolutely no contact details on the website which should be the first warning indication.

WHOIS gives the domain name registered on 03-Jan-2009 to:

37 West Parade
Bury
BL2 6RU
United Kingdom

This address is nonsense anyway as Bury is BL9 area. Definitely one to avoid.

Several of the covers for the Disney DVDs appear to be knock off. This is probably someone selling cheap Chinese fakes. Avoid.

I'd also recommend find-dvd. Use it all the time.

This looks dodgy! All the DVDs I looked at had region codes of 1,2,4,5. It's rare to find regions 1 & 2 together on 1 disc let alone on all the discs.

Postcode is for Boundary Drive, Little Lever, Nr Bolton, about 3 miles from Bury.
I concur with eviebea, AVOID.

Have you had to pay much in customs?

I did buy from these. I'm sure the films are fake. Dodgy covers and quality not perfect. Avoid them!

Me too. I always check the price there first before ordering any DVD

i wish i had seen these comments earlier - my order from dvdbits.co.uk didn't arrive. they don't reply to emails either. avoid like the plague.

they say recommended by ARAMF Movie Association - does this exist?

Just to concur.. the postcode is a Bolton one and "West Parade, Bury" does not exist.

It's a scam.

It's just not worth taking a punt on sites like these, not when sites like Play.com are so competitive anyway and don't charge for postage. Also, the HMV sale tends to be pretty good. To be honest if you cross reference those 2 sites you'll tend to get a good deal...
