Hello everyone i appreciate you looking at this thread, and hopefully you can help me out.

I live in Australia and as the months go on it seems as though region B are usually the ones getting douched when it comes to new releases. I've been thinking about this for a while now and the region locked release of Ichi the Killer clenched this decision that i need to buy a Region A player.

So my question is which shop online would you recommend me buying this player from as im pretty concerned about packaging, warranties and whatnot.

Also i doubt this but would there be any problems when updating firmware being from another region?

Finally what player would you recommend? i've been using my ps3 so im really not in the know when it comes to stand alone players. I dont want the cheap option, i also do not want the most pricey. I'm lookin to spend around $800-$1000AU.

Thanks for your time...
