RangerGirl Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 (edited) It's as if Amazon know how skint we all are after C7...All the DVD boxsets, seasons 1-6, are only £20.97! No idea why, since they're usually twice that, but who cares! Lord knows I need something to get me through the C7 withdrawal symptoms...

Colonel Jack O'Neill Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 They were all about £23 for along time but looks like they have dropped the price again, better tell my sister as she has Season 1, 3-5 and I have 6/7 and she has been after Season 2 for awhile.

Moderators DavidB Posted May 7, 2005 Moderators Share Posted May 7, 2005 I'm quite interested in getting them if they're cheap - out of interest do you think they'll ever re-release them in different and cheaper packaging like Fox has with X Files/Buffy/Angel etc? I mean I know £20 IS cheap enough as it is, just worried about shelf space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I know £20 IS cheap enough as it is, just worried about shelf space I suppose it is possible but the packaging has been getting cheaper as it is, Season 2-5 has the DVD cases in thick card boxes but Season 1 and 6 come in really thin card boxes which are really easy to damage. What they should do is re-release them in the packaging that the Dutch R2 releases are in, takes up the same amount of space as 2 DVD cases and I personally think the packaging is alot nicer.

Colonel Jack O'Neill Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 (edited) Only £28? I spent about £52 on season 7 from amazon. Got my Dutch Season 7 set for just over £30 delievered, it has all the same extras as the UK set so why pay more when you can get the same and in my opinion better version from elsewhere.

stanmarsh Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Nah, was free P&P from orders over £19 and I bought a few other things as well. I have a weird thing about my DVD's. They have to bought in this country and region 2, I'm sure other people have other quirks like that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some people who will not buy any Region 2 because of the higher prices and 4% picture speed up, I always go for the release with the best features, usually it is R1/3 but sometimes its R2, in this case I went for the lower price and seeing as it is also Region 2 it will play on my friends DVDs players which are not mutli-region.

RangerGirl Posted May 7, 2005 Author Share Posted May 7, 2005 God, those Dutch boxsets are so much nicer. It really does bug me that the UK ones are so amazingly bulky...apart from taking up shelf space and the extra money you pay for packaging, it just doesn't look nice. Meh, but now that I've got three seasons on region 2 I don't really want to fork out again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebredy Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Colonel Jack O'Neill where did you get the Dutch ones from, if you don't mind? (I mean what site) They look really cool and so I thought I might get them for my boyfriend for his crimbo and birthday presents if there not to expensive, they would certainly be different....As he is in an SG group with me and always watches it when round my house, oh and has no SG dvd's at the mo it seems an ideal gift for me to get him LLAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
