I just bought The Crow, Transformers and Thirteen Ghosts from Amazon.uk and it was 39.03euros which is $60 USD right? So how come it's so cheap?

Thats sterling pounds not euros which equivlates to 76.39 plus exchange rate fee charged by your bank

Did you use amazon marketplace? As these are not popular films so people are trying to sell them off cheap. Also they may have removed the sales tax for you which is 17.5%.

The price seems fair as if you were in the UK I wouldnt pay more than £25 which is about 30 euros.

I couldve sworn you had a negative rating on your feedback - you and legitballinpimpinspinnerhubcaps solve that little dispute?

Jesterkeeters · 05-08-2008, 05:26 PM

I just recieved the email saying my movies have been dispatched wish there was a cancel option...lol

You just bought The Crow and its region locked.

Next time, always check the BD Region code (Forgot the website).

Jesterkeeters · 05-08-2008, 05:27 PM

It says region free at the site so I assumed it would work

He's...aware...of...that...

...I already did though.

Jesterkeeters · 05-08-2008, 05:30 PM

NARMAK · 05-08-2008, 05:37 PM

Well, i am assuming that TF is not blu lol, not sure bout 13 ghosts either, generally prices are more expensive compared to US, you maybe got the odd 'lucky to find an import bargain from rip-off britain to US' lol

Jesterkeeters · 05-08-2008, 05:38 PM
