Buying bluray films from ebay :)

[matts4it]

Every one knows about the usual online retailers like amazon and play.com. But I was just wondering what your experience is of buying bluray films from bidding sites like ebay? Wheather its a good or bad experience.

In the past I have bought a few from ebay. And each purchase I have been happy with. Usually they have been watched once type sales.

Today I purchased The first knight from ebay(again a watch it once type film) for £3.71! A bargin!

eBay is great. I've had a few bad experiences, but compared to all the good deals I've done there it's peanuts.

And the great thing about buying from eBay is that almost every seller is willing to write down the value of the shipment. There's a NOK 200,- (about $32) limit for importing goods to Norway without paying tax. If the price of the item is more than NOK 200,- there's a 25% fee to pay (pluss some extra crap).

So eBay is great for more expensive stuff, like box-sets.

I am not a big fan of buying common items off eBay unless I see a steal of a deal. I go to eBay for items that do not have an established market or retail presence, like collectibles.
