I cannot buy directly a Region B player. Oh, I can buy Region B Blu-ray titles just fine from Amazon UK, but they will not sell me the hardware.

I was looking for a rather inexpensive (read that as entry-level) Region B Blu-ray player and see some well under 100 pounds on Amazon UK. I could add an additional shipping address to my Amex and Amazon accounts, ship the Amazon UK order to someone in the UK, and pay someone to ship it to the Americas.

I've done something similar to this years ago with a DVD player (not due to region coding, but because it had a VGA video output) through Canada, but now I am looking for a viable solution through the UK.

Any takers?
