Simpsons Series One Box Set - R1 and R2
Hi
Can somrbody please tell me why the region 2 Simpsons is £31.99 on Play247 whilst the exact same region 1 version is only £17.99
Both appear to have the same release dates?
Is there something I am missing??
Thanks

£14 if you buy R2 ? ;-)
RE: Simpsons Series One Box Set - R1 and R2
Where from?

Big A,
He means you would be missing £14 from your pocket if you bought R2.
If your player is multiregion get R1, I am.

Sorry long day at work!!!!
Cheers Mate, Region 1 it is then.
I knew that UK DVDs were more expensive but this is taking the p***.

The reason it is 17.99 is to get past import restrictions, which means Import duty can be charged if the item is 18 quid or over (36 or over for a gift), you will find very few single DVDs from R1 at Play for over 18 quid)

Yeah, but they`re not going to sell it at a loss just to get past import restrictions, are they?
RE: Simpsons Series One Box Set - R1 and R2
Play managed to get a good bulk order deal with the R1 version (this kind of discount would be impossible with the R2 version) this allows Play to sell it at a 40% discount. (Also the RRP of the R2 version is £10 higher than the R1 version)

But the extras look different and this is a three disk set - are they in fact identical or not?

Works out at approx £26 at ezy....with Simpsons Guide to Springfield book (worth £10) thrown in. Question: will the book mean more postage charges??? And what about customs (it genuinely is a present for my son!)
