Seems to be a Malaysian site (prices are in Malaysian currency), and I agree the prices are low, especially for R1 stuff.

Looks legitimate enough, and the prices do include delivery.

Too good to be true ? Who knows...

Anyone tried them before ?

It does seem too good to be true... but I`m feeling lucky, what the heck, maybe I`ll give them a whirl.

I especially liked one of the comments on the help page:

"Is Adult Movie available? (Porno)

By the Govern Law of Malaysia, Selling-Exchange-Distribution Pornography of any kinds is a Crime and will get us in JAIL for a very long time. Please do not request or ask for it."

It really is a different world over there!

Nah, I chickened out after seeing the payment page - it doesn`t appear to be secure (no "padlock" in IE), and it`s a bit "amateurish-looking" for my liking.

Probably is too good to be true - I`ll give it a miss.

Loved the info on the company page :-)
"Our online payment system is a 124bit Encryption Firewall with Thunderball Effects along with a Phantom Worm Virus back up. In pure layman terms, It is indeed the best and the latest technology available today. We do not handle your secured payment, it is done by pro who knows about the business and will constantly update the system as the hi-tech world changes all the time. Meaning Shopping with us is safe and sound (Peace of Mind)."

Well that should make you feel safe :-)
Might be worth reading the `Ebay worries` thread in general forum.

>>>"I chickened out after seeing the payment page - it doesn`t appear to be secure (no "padlock" in IE)"

If you right click on their checkout page and select properties it gives you the information on your current connection, looks secure to me:

SSL 3.0, RC4 with 128 bit encryption (High); RSA with 512 bit exchange

also the URL of the checkout page starts https:// - not 100% sure about this but I think the `s` is for secure connection.

I have shopped from another big online company before who didn`t show a padlock in my browser. They explain why it wasn`t there but I cant remember the reason now.

Are the DVDs pirates? £8.30 for the Terminator seems too cheap!!!
