E: 30.4.05 10% off DVDSoon.Com Voucher

Stumpy

See here for details - will give you 10% off any purchase, but I think you can only use it once per person.

Code=TIMESMA05

The site is canadian, but you can convert the currency using a exchange rate converter like this one.

Edit - forgot to mention, this seems to be open to all

Stumpy

There is another 10% off code from DVD PriceCheck here - again open to all, available until end of April:

Thanks Stumpy! I use these quite regularly and 10% off one of the boxsets I just ordered has taken it below the £18 for customs charges

jtorry

the price on the package will be the pre discount price.

How much would the customs charge be? First time I've bought anything from Canada, and they look like having some good deals so may go back

I've only had to pay customs once - once a DVD box set costing about £28 - had to pay around £9 I think. Was frustrating, but still saved loads of money as the Region 2 DVD box set in the UK was £60.

Blimey - I'll have to make sure I avoid that then - I was expecting you to say a couple of quid. An additional 30% on top seems a bit excessive.

Royal Mail's handling fee is £4 and customs on a £20 boxset was £3.50 so all in all if your boxset was £20 you would have to pay an additional £7.50 in charges.

DVDSoon used to mark all their box sets etc. as being worth £18, even when they cost more than that, to bypass customs charges. I don't know whether they still do, though. You might be lucky!

They mark all of their packages the proper price now (I think they got told off by customs! a while back). Depending on your postie and local customs you can still get lucky though.

I used to but dvd's from the USA and got stung with charges until i noticed that you could get it gift wrapped for $2.00 and the invoice would have $0.00 next to everything thus it was classed as a Gift with no value it was a while ago but not sure if anywere still offers a service like that anymore.
