Title: What Percentage Of Your Blu-ray Purchases Are Online?
Post by: Blu-devil on Apr 30, 2011 at 12:50 PM: Curious as to how much of your Blu-ray purchasing is from stores such as Amazon, HMV etc.
I for one refuse to purchase Blu-rays from stores here in Cebu because of the price and quality.
I simply cannot justify paying $40 for a movie at Odessey when I can purchase a superior version from Amazon for up to half the price, and that includes shipping. If you shop online who do you use?

Post by: Kd Jb on Apr 30, 2011 at 01:46 PM: 80% order from amazon courtesy of Doc Oreoshake. Yung iba from forum sellers. I agree mas maganda packaging ng mga bought sa US, ganda ng slipcase..pang collector tlaga..

Post by: Ady001 on Jul 31, 2011 at 10:40 AM: I am a new member in the forums and I'm trying to make my collections as online as possible. I now have a "source" for any Amazon.com related purchase I make so I'm quite lucky.

I just bought The Complete Metropolis by Fritz Lang and Evangelion 1.11. Mga 1,852 lang nagastos ko without the taxes.

I have NEVER been charged any fees, saying that the person in charge of customs at Philpost Region 7 is my neighbour. DHL is another matter,thieving c@nts.
