Page 1 of DDDHouse Question.........

Just out of interest, What are these people like to deal with? Cant understand How thay can flog DVD with postage for around 9 quid before it seems that are available in the US? Second thing, Did I see someone say goods from DDDHouse have to be signed for, Is it send recorded or something?

Great retailers.

Taking your points in turn :

(1) Easy peasy to deal with - they send you an e-mail confirming your order, and a further one confirming despatch : allow about seven days after getting that one for the goodies to arrive.

(2) The reasons the prices are cheap is that they are Region 3, not Region 1, and usually bereft of any extras. Having said that, most recent R3 releases come replete with a dts soundtrack (eg The Others, Shaoilin Soccer, Battle Royale)

(3) Goods don`t have to be signed for, just usual postie delivery. You can also get away with up to £36-worth of orders, as House mark is as "Gift" and just have someone`s personal address on the outside, rather than the company name.

We love Region 3 !

Hey listen to Clayts. He put me onto DDD and I`ve just placed my third order. They are easy to deal with and like Clayts says they e-mail you order confirmation and despatch information.

I have e-mailed them myself and they have always responded quickly. Shaolin Soccer and Battle Royale are well worth the money, but even without the extras the discs are worth buying from DDD.

Just had confirmation from DDDHouse, The film has been send Registered Air Mail. Thay did say expect delivery in about 7 days if not spotted by customs, Shouldnt imagine there would be a problem with customs, Would there?

There shouldn`t be, unless you ordered something big and bulky like the entire U333 collection (you`ll get that joke when you receive your discs !)

I have used both dddhouse and coolashop loads of times and they are both excellent retailers.

I`ve had no prob`s whatsoever with them.

As for region 3 disks, well I have Shaolin Soccer and Battle Royale both DTS and for less then £9 each.

Most disks you don`t get the insert but who cares.

On some disks you don`t get all the extras but again who cares. Most extras are dross anyway!!

Regarding customs, they did open my copy of Shaolin Soccer for some reason.

Just a heads up to let y`all know that `House will not be sending out orders between 11-15th Feb, as they are celebrating the Chinese New Year.

AFAIK you can still place orders at their website.

got stung by customs on an order from DDD !! :(

my order of 4 DVDs totalled to around 26 pounds and was marked as gift, etc. but I still got a bill of 6 (+3.5 by Royal Mail) from customs !!

Is there anything I can do? or just pay up and sulk :((( . . . .

You could argue it was a gift from the bloke on the label, but I reckon they must have sussed it out already, sadly.

Unlucky, mate...
