While I'm aware that Amazon.com help fund firstones through their advert, for those in the UK that isnt especially helpful.
[url="http://www.HMV.co.uk"]www.HMV.co.uk[/url] provide full season box sets for £69.99 (inc vat exc P&P). However, HMV are completely out of these, in all their stores, and direct from the website.

Dear Eamon

Thank you for your recent email.

I have spoken to the supplier this morning regarding this item. At the moment they are currently out of stock of this whole series and are awaiting a repress. Regrettably this will cause a delay but I am unable to tell you for how long. As Christmas is round the corner now, I would imagine that this should be back in stock soon.

Unfortunately the shipping time stated on our website doesn't apply in this case. Some larger stores may have some old stock left still.

Apologies for the delay in your order and I hope it does not cause too much inconvenience.

Regards

    When will the season sets be available?
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    That all depends on how well the first DVD does.

    You see, if the first run of DVDs arent out yet in the US, how long will it be before the season boxes (if they come) arrive in the UK?

    I consider £70 a season quite reasonable for videos, even if in 2 - 3 years time I replace them with DVDs.

    It is theoretically possible that the DVD's could be in the UK before the US. That's what happened with the tapes.
    Doesn't seem very likely though. :-(

    You think you've got it bad? It will be years before even the first DVD gets here.

    Both correct. When those two things combine, I get zone 1 dvds over the internet playing on my multi-zone dvd drive! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Just on the topic of DVD's and the internet... I've used Play247.com recently and find their prices very good. I got American Beauty Region 2 for £9.99 incl vat and delivery. Much better than paying prats like HMV and Virgin £19.99 for it. And they're CD's a well priced too. I got Stainds new album (which rocks!) for £8.99 inc vat and delivery... again much better than paying £16.99 at HMV and Virgin.

    Oh well... not long now until the B5 DVD's arrive.... I can feel it in my bones!
