    Import US DVD's Amazon Marketplace?

    Anyone used Amazon Marketplace before? I'm after some Region 1 DVD's (Invader Zim - yay) and the price looks right but I've never bought this way before.

    Oh mighty Hexites, please impart your wisdom and tell me if I'm being a tit!

    Ta muchly, Andrew.

    PS Happy New Year for later guys.
    They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.

    I've just bought a DVD from www.amazon.com (last night as the american version is different and the UK version is missing bits) - but not through the marketplace - it gave me 3 different options for postage / cost all fairly reasonable - cheapest was $7, next was $10 and priority was $18 - hope that helps - hopefully the marketplace seller will have the same kind of prices.

    If you mean buying from private sellers through Amazon, then I've been both a buyer and a seller with no problems. Check the seller's feedback though obv.

    Thinking about it, the only problem I've had was when someone tried to buy a video off me but their card got rejected. They then left me negative feedback complaining the item had not been recieved. Amazon refused to remove it, saying they leave them there 'as a service to our customers'. Yeah, you're doing your customers a real service by making it look like I'm an unreliable seller even though you can see yourself that the sale never went through. Muppets.


    Sorry about the rant.

    Rich :¬)
