Help! do I pay in Canadian or US dollars?
O.K., so I`m eventually taking the plunge and buying 2 discs online-from DVD box office, `Gone in 60 secs` and `The 6th Day`
Thing is, I`m not sure whether to pay in canadian or US dollars? Am I right in saying canadian dollars works out cheaper? It seems to, unless I converted the currency wrong!
Perhaps anyone who has used DVD box office can advise me?
Cheers

Bigboy, I use DVD boxoffice & DV-Depot all the time and I always choose to be billed in Canadian dollars.
The only thing with DVD Boxoffice is, that the titles can take between 9 - 13 days to arrive & only 2 - 4 days with DV-Depot (with their DHL option)
You pays your money....
If you don`t mind waiting, go for DVD Boxoffice if not, go for DV-Depot.
Hope this helps, Longsightboy

Many thanks, Longsightboy
I shall `ave a butchers at DV-Depot before deciding - time isn`t too important but if it`s only a couple of quid, it could prove useful.
First time I`ve heard of these bods on this site - good are they?

Canadian is definitely cheaper than US dollars, but be careful!!
If you order BOTH titles at the same time, you`ll be over the £18 customs limit and if they catch the parcel, you`ll have to pay 3% on top of the discs price for duty, then 17.5% on the new total for VAT!
Order individually...it takes a while to get `em, but sure saves a bit in the wallet! :o)
AIWA 370 (officially) ROCKS!!!!!

Rah! Thanks Jimbo, not aware of that cunning customs clause!

If you want to pay in australian bucks you can get Gone in 60 Seconds for about £14 inc shipping from ezydvd.com.au and it comes in about 5 days.
I have used them a few times with no problems.

"The only thing with DVD Boxoffice is, that the titles can take between 9 - 13 days to arrive & only!
My last 2 disks from DVDBO took only 6 & 8 days respectively.
also BigBoy if your DVD`s are pretty close to 18 quid I would get from Jersey based www.play247.com
DVDDepot have been spanked by customs on lots of occasions.
