Region 4 Buffy?

Tricks (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Friday, 21st September 2001, 21:30

Hi
Feel a little guilty coz only seem to post here when want a question answered. Must get around to answering some myself in the future.
Anyway,
Seeing as the Aussie exchange rate is more in our favour than before, I`m interested in getting Buffy series 2 from EZY DVD. About £48 if your interested.
I just wondered if it has all the same ingredients as the UK set, and if it also has the problems of the scratched discs with it`s packaging.
Also, I suppose if someone has found it cheeper then I`d be happy to save a bit of cash too.
Thanx alot
T

£48 You are likely to get hit by customs
Its better to order the 2 parts seperately. It will still work out much cheaper than uk prices. remember to get it marked as a gift. I have the season 1 from aus. the packaging is different to the uk version(3 amray cases in a box) but the discs are identical. Season 2 i have the uk version so cant comment on the aus version. but it should be different and better. I think ausralians are much more cautious about protection and packing (they also have no warner bros snapper cases either)

The R1 cheapo can be found here : -

Parts 1 & 2 are packed in transparent Amaray cases - 3 to a box

see :

http://www.michaeldvd.com.au/Reviews/BuffyTheVampireSlayerSeason2BoxSet1.html

They are also R2/R4 coded.

Ezydvd have been quite good in the past customs wise - I ordered at least £40 of disks (5 James Bonds) and not a sniff from Customs. But as Dicanio says, the risk is all yours, if you wish to take it...Jim!

Thanx for your replies.
I take your point about customs, have gotten away with it thus far but don`t really want to get caught.
Decent sites too, I must be the only owner of the first series that never knew it opened out into a crucifix, doh!.
Might see if I can get it in the WHSmiths BOGOHP sale with the 3rd series but the second is proving a little ellusive at the moment. I think they must be redoing the packaging or something.
Cheers again
