So, my Mum wants War and Rememberance DVDs for her bday. Amazon, Play and Ebay all have it for about £87.

My brother found it cheap on "ondvdmall.co.uk". To me the website looks DODGE... weird English and only one review online by a username that has reviewed 4 other dvd sites (that I never heard of) and given them 4 or 5 stars.

But my brother likes a bargain...

Anyone heard of this website?

Thankin you x

Nope but if you run their name through a google search and stick '+ reviews' on the end; it will very quickly become clear if they are too be avoided

Brighton - even Hove!

I'd pay from a trusted site and not give out card details to the suspect site either!!!

Do a search for dvd price checker and you'll find a site that compares prices.

Have a look on a site called quidco where you can get cashback when you shop on various sites.

Check the supermarkets. Asda often have good prices on CDs and DVDs.

Thank you! Am trying the price checker now!

Yeah, I think I'm going to veto it and use amazon!

Always better to be safe than sorry. I always thought I was a good judge of websites on the rare occasions I shop online but some scumbag fraudulently tried to use my card to but luckily my bank spotted it. Still a pain to have to wait for a new card though.

I have a pre-paid card that I use for online purchases. Search for escape card, you can top it up at the post office. That way all that can be spent is what is on the card, I only put money on when I have purchases to make and then only to that amount.

Looks like they are based in Hong Kong. In their FAQ it says they declare it as a gift on the customs form but you can't rely on Customs falling for this. Would it still be cheap with customs duty and vat added? For a knock of?

funny thing is there are a lot of fakes with good websites so it does make you wonder what a bad website means!

If it is a lot cheaper I would avoid. too good to be true perhaps

Yeah it is less than half the price of amazon.

I never thought about it being knock off from China. I used to buy them all the time when I lived there... but if it gets checked at customs will probably be confiscated if its not real!
