I spotted this on another DVD website.

You can get the last season of "24" for around £11.87 ($12.99 + $6.47 shipping).

24 Season 7 DVD

It is also under the £18 limit for customs so you won't have to pay any import fees.

Note that this is from the U.S. Amazon website so you will need a DVD player capable of playing Region 1 DVDs.

The U.K. Region 2 24 Season 7 DVD box set is £32.68 on Amazon U.K. which is the cheapest according to Find-DVD.

  • Good find, great price.

    Does anyone know if the widescreen format means that watching on a normal TV it has the black banding top and bottom? (Really annoying!)

    Depending on your TV or DVD player you may be able to set it up to play at full screen.

    Personally I get anoyed when I'm missing something off screen and getting titles cut off but I guess you can't please everyone.

    Good deal.

    Any chance OP of adding 'Region 1' to your title as I've just spilt my beer all over the place in premature excitement...

    Royal Mail charge an £8 fee for collecting the import duty which they keep, so you get stung by both Royal Mail and HMRC. Although not for this "24" box set because it is below the £18 threshold :D
  • Think this has just gone up in price to over £18!

    Drat!
