Hi!

I just wonder if I were to order the nightmare on elm street collection (9 dvds), do they charge this as one item or the acctual (9). Please answer on both shipping method.
Tried to test this at their hp but I got scared that it would be placed as an order.

The fastes shipping method is international mail, do anyone know which company they use?

Hi Kim,

They charge USD $ 7.95 for the boxset.

Boxed sets are charged as one (1) item at Amazon -- that's why I ordered X-Files Season One from them!

Anali,
How safe is the package when mailed to Manila?

I tried both DHL Worldmail and DHL Priority/Express. Both had no problems arriving, although Worldmail took a lot longer than I expected (nearly two months). The real thing to watch out for here, however, is the Customs people. Packages from Reel and DVDExpress sail through without a hitch, but they jump on anything that says "Amazon.com" on it and try to slap on hefty "processing" fees. Sometimes the only way to get out of it is to namedrop any politician's name -- oh well.

I bought the R1 Star Trek Next generation box set of Generations, First Contact and Insurrection and was only charged for one DVD shipping.

These are excellent movies which I play on either my creative Encore DVD 5X or my Onkyo DVD

There is no sign of these movies being released on R4 yet
