Play247.com is well known for its cheap prices (due to being VAT FREE), but TESCO.COM are currently running another VAT FREE fortnight with all games and DVD`s FREE of VAT, making them, on average £1 or more cheaper than play247.com. BUFFY SEASON 3 is only £54 (£9 cheaper than closest competitor).

There is a thread running at The DVD Forums about people getting screwed by Tesco`s over multiple item orders. People have been ordering 2 or 3 DVDs in an order to save on postage. But Tesco`s have been changing them into single orders and so you get charged postage on each DVD making it quite expensive. Beware!

Just ordered Godfather boxset for under £40.
I also ordered Face Off. If Tesco do charge me £1.75 per DVD they are infact breaking the law. The total order (with 1 p&p) came to about £50. If they take 2 p&p making the total £52 they are taking an unauthorised amount of money from my account. Haven`t read the other threads but if they do do this I`ll be contacting them with this info demanding my `stolen` money back.

Just ordered 5 DVD`s. You have to specify that you want to receive them as a single delivery. They have emailed me to confirm the total charge (£67.24). I agree with sparkster, if they then split the order and charge multiple p&p they are contravening the agreement.

Taken from their main page
"Delivery is only £1.75 per order no matter how many items you buy from our music, video, dvd and games warehouses."
If they go against that then you`ve got a valid complaint.

Blimey! Give them half a chance to get the delivery out! I got some Taliban AK-47`s at a reasonable price you can have to rampage round your local Tesco`s with - never used and only dropped once. >:D
Nice bargain, I finally caved in and bought Godfather. Ta.

Is it safe to order from here as there is no padlock was on the bottom of the checkout page? Or is the padlock and https just missing from my screen?
