Help needed - Does Jaws exist on DVD

HI people, quite a newbie on here so not sure if this has been asked before, if so sorry for repeating.

Anyway

I`ve been looking for the past few weeks for Jaws (the original fim) on DVD as a christmas presewnt for a relative but iam unable to find it anywhere. I`ve looked on Play.com & amazon & Cdwow but can only find the sequels, Jaws :2 / 3 / 4, but not the origianal on DVD.

Anyone know the reasoning behind this at all as it seems weird why this is no longer available

Thanks for your assistance & help in advance.

It has been released, but pretty hard to get. Try here.
Or check around here.

Well it definately exists on DVD because I have it. Only reason I can think is if they withdrew it from sale in preperation for a Special Edition sometime next year maybe.

Just looked at a few places, seems it has been deleted. It is advertised on Amazon.co.uk for £25 and up!. :o They seem to think it is rare.

EDIT: beat me to it while I was typing

If the lucky recipient can handle multi-region, it`s available for about a tenner on region 1 here. That`s DTS but there`s a 5.1 version there too for a couple of quids more.

I bought it from DVDSoon a couple of weeks back for about £6 - it was a DTS version.




Oh my God, Bear is driving! How can that be?

It might be worth checking your nearest Virgin Megastore - the one in the Meadowhall Shopping Centre had loads last week in their 5 for £30 offer, but the Sheffield city centre store today didn`t have any!

I got mine from Game a while back for £6.99 but it is a slightly different cover to the 25th Anniversary Edition, although the features are identical!

Cover can be viewed at:

Does anyone know what this is? Is it some sort of euro import version?
