RE: Cheap R1 and R2 Discs, and great Comparison sites

WORD OF WARNING: If the package containing DVDs is worth less than £18, then you don`t pay VAT and IMPORT DUTY. If the value exceeds this you are liable to import duty. The postman will demand the money before handing the discs over. There is also a post office clearance fee to pay (I think it`s £1.50) in addition to the VAT and IMPORT duty. Sometimes you get lucky and you don`t pay. When I had a box of discs arrive via DHL I was not asked for any duty payments - great I thought. However 1 to 2 weeks later an invoice arrived from DHL for the duty due plus a whopping £10 administration charge. Therefore I suggest being careful and order 1 DVD at a time to avoid duty even if postal charges are more. Avoid DHL shipments as you get stung if duty is payable.
