RE: Buffy Season 1 boxset under £26 inc delivery
yeah i got this link in my email today and didnt hesitate to buy it. Great price. I emailed them to mark it as a gift but have not had a reply as of yet. suppose they are still asleep down under or summat.
RE: Buffy Season 1 boxset under £26 inc delivery
Thanks for posting - indeed a bargain. I`d been after this for a while but wasn`t prepared to shell out a fortune...now only if they`d bring the season 2 box set down ;-)
In addition they`re doing selected DVDs for AU$9.95 if your order is over AU$50 http://www.chaosmusic.com/shop/salefeature.asp?specialclass=CDVD . To be honest the movies all look pretty guff (TV movie city), but maybe someone out there wants one of them.

Like dicanio I`d mailed Chaos to ask them to mark this as a gift.
Received this e-mail this morning from Chaos:
"I have followed this up for you and unfortunately the item has already been shipped to you.
In regards to marking items, all item item are marked as small parcels, as we do ship items in bulk and cannot single out items to mark as gifts.
If there is anything else I could do for you please contact me."
So if anyone is ordering from them be aware that you could get caught by customs. Pretty poor, I thought, for a site that also lists prices in US dollars and obviously exports a lot.

W*nkers. I didnt even get a reply. Lets hope they mark down the value of it on the sticker then. When i ordered scary movie from them, they marked it as AUD$20. Hopefully this marking down and the postage and packing charge not included, it should come to about £20 and will be overlooked. This is the second time they have p***ed me off. I emailed them to cancel another order which was "processing". They emailed me to tell me that they couldnt as it was shipped. I checked my order status again to find it was still "processing" a day after i recieved the email. Last time im using these idiots. Good price, Crap service. Stick to DVD Crave. Competitve prices, Excellent service

Got this today. Not bad service actually. 4 days is about normal time for aus delieveries. Great that i didnt get hit by customs though. I dont wanna put it up on this thread but they did something really great to get it past customs. Hats off to them. Now if only they could reply to their emails......Great box sets. 3 discs each with its own amray case. When i opened it surprise surprise there were no scratches on the discs and the boxes will hold and will keep them safe. This boxset is great. Why couldnt they have used this idea for season 2 aswell? This is what happens when u try to be 2 clever.
RE: Buffy Season 1 boxset under £26 inc delivery
Yeah its pretty cool, I got the Sopranos season 1 from these guys a while back with no Customs grief. Now if Sopranos Season 2 arrives intact it will a fabulous McG 3 H M Customs 0 :-D and a saving of over £100 on high street prices.

Arrived this morning and my worst fears were confirmed - it had been stopped by customs. £7.65 payable. BUT postie didn`t collect! Do I remember correctly that if they don`t collect when they deliver, then you don`t pay?? He just asked for me to sign for it as special delivery.
I won`t be using Chaos again. Despite it costing AU$69.59 they`d marked the package as having an insured value of AU$100 with postage costing AU$13 and insurance AU$5 - no wonder it got stopped.
I don`t know what they`d marked on your package dicanio that got it through, but I`d be wary ordering even a single dvd now. Most places devalue items not inflate it!!!

RE: Buffy Season 1 boxset under £26 inc delivery

RE: Buffy Season 1 boxset under £26 inc delivery
I didn`t - as far as I remember there was no option for insurance (it was early in the morning tho`) and even if there had been I wouldn`t have checked it. The only options I saw were for Air Mail or Express Courier. I picked Air Mail.
Cut and paste from account page:
Complete BUFFY BOX SET - SEASON 1 BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER DVD 1 AU$63.59
Subtotal: AU$63.59
Tax: AU$0.00
Shipping: AU$6.00
Special Shipping Discount: (AU$0.00)
Special Discount: (AU$0.00)
Member Credits Applied: (AU$0.00)
Total: AU$69.59
End of cut and paste.
So for some reason they decided to inflate the shipping by $7, the price by $36.41 and produce an insurance charge from somewhere. It also wasn`t the usual little customs declaration sticker, it was a six part document. Well strange!
