Your right about ebay- You might get it cheap- but the shipping will drive you crazy, you may not be able to get exactly what you want- or buy 2 or3 other sets or movies you like with it to save on shipping ( they dont always have what your looking for-) - plus the added scare that you dont know about these folks, as to wether they will send you what you though you bought- or the fact that it may of been opened already ( or a rewrapped used copy ) or the truth behind when youll get it- or if there ordering it for you and having it sent from the orient-

Hello
Yeh, ordering the odd one or two dvds is ok, but when i order, i like to buy lots of dvds together. This postal strike is killing me. I'm supposed to have some dvds in but the post has gone awol!
Oh yeh, from surfing around, I have to say, Ebay really is the cheapest! I mean, I bought the love hina 3 dvds set plus specials for only $20 altogether including shipping!
Thanks for the link on Animeniacs, I'm gonna check that out now!

I don't know, yesterday I saw the news with the UK map. Most strikes are in the north. The south west is still ok, but any letters some those areas are left out. Today being saturday (busy) I only got 2 letters in thepost!

I was watching Sky News just now and it says that its 16 Million mail a day pile'in up and they started to block out the envelope holes on the post box in my area now.
Plus the royal mail's busy day is christmas and its going to get hectec soon, so the royal mail should just give in and let it go back to normal, i've got mail and bills waiting :mad: Now they say by christmas double shifts will be appended due to the making up of the lost time. That's definitly worst for ya.

They should just raise the price of stamps. Compared the USA our postal prices are pretty cheap in general. Not to same level but i would be willing to pay a bit more for reliable service and better services.
The news said it cost them about 28p to deliver a first class letter... so basically there is little profit. Just raise it by 5p and give them their payrise i say. :o
