re: International Blu-ray deals
It went up 4 pounds. Still not terrible.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-li...6703945&sr=8-1 The previous link was to a copy on the US site... |
re: International Blu-ray deals
WTF is wrong with my browser? These links seem as if they would go to the UK site yet I wind up at Amazon.ca
|
re: International Blu-ray deals
I'm getting sent to the US site when I click the link. No matter since it seemed to have already went up in price. But the redirect thing is weird.
|
re: International Blu-ray deals
Well, I was sent to Amazon.ca but I am in the US... no matter, the CTR thing works. Thank you.

Many AmazonUK links are perfect, but when clicked I get directed to amazonUS. Using things like Noscript and a other add-on things can help, but the easiest is to HOLD down the CTR key and click the link. That usually sends you to the link instead of redirecting you to you local Amazon |
What if I don't have a control key?
How many people still use computers to access this forum? Aren't we in a mostly tablet/mobile world now?

re: International Blu-ray deals
^What he said.
PC >>>>>> mobile for any internet activity. Regarding the redirects, I believe uBlock Origin can be configured to eliminate that bullshit. I never get redirected. |

I like a full size monitor and real keyboard. Even Laptops i find make things far less friendly -- a phone or tablet I find completely bonkers and for emergency only. It's one of the reasons I cringe everytime I read of a website upgrading to make it more usable. Over teh last several years I've generally found that to be completely backward. Every upgrade basically is to make 5 inch screen more usable -- 80% of the material is removed, instead of lists of 50-100 items on a single screen, there are now 2-3 and 10 clicks to accomplish what one did before. |
re: International Blu-ray deals
There is actually a huge deal going on right now at Amazon Germany. It's 3 items for the price of 2 across a huge selection of BDs, DVDs, LP sets and CDs.
https://www.amazon.de/b/ref=amb_link...d_i=B01J20B7IW The reason why this deal is great is that many expensive items that rarely get discounted are included. If you are hunting big game in music box sets, there are some steals. Remember to put the site in English at the bottom for easier reading. |

re: International Blu-ray deals
I should have specified tablet. Yeah, phones are for calls and texting and a few other things, not great for reading websites. But I've barely touched a laptop or desktop outside of work since the iPad was invented, don't miss them at all. Maybe I'm in the minority, but could have sworn stats I've seen made it seem otherwise.

The lack of keyboard, and having to use what translates as the same "mobile" version of the forum, will always make the PC my first choice. I might try the Chrome book eventually if I could pry it away from my wife and daughter.

re: International Blu-ray deals
I surf on tablet, but posting polls, typing long-ish responses, partially deleting quotes, etc. are all easier on laptop.
Off-topic ;), but I hope everyone got in on the Universal Monsters deal who wanted it. I got it or a similar set from UK, and it's great. I will dig into it again this month. |
re: International Blu-ray deals
I bought this set at 10.99 pounds and it was very worth it. Nice steelbook and this sucker is region free as I've tested the UK version myself.
