Well even I didn't think you'd be dumb enough to pay 30 quid for your
average DVD. Most of mine cost about 12 quid.

If you want the new releases thats what you pay.

as it happens, I get my films from the bargain bucket. I dont think I've payed 8ukp for any of them.

then again, you get what you pay for - the bargain bucket ones are factory seconds or ones people have returned (albeit woring).

I picked up 'Lost in space' for 4.99 the other day, and had to argue with customer service because the disc had little scratches (evidently had been used) and the box was shabby.

as the disc plays, I was happy wenough to take it but I insisted they replace the box (ie. swap the case inserts with a better box).

but I dont go to 'bargain bucket' cinema screenings, so I wont compare them to bargain bucket DVDs.
