I've used them for two or three years now, and never had a problem.

I get amazon.co.uk shipments faster than I do from amazon.com sometimes, and always faster than I get from DDDVD.

My most recent order (two weeks ago) was placed on a Tueday evening - and I received it the following Monday!

Two things I especially appreciate with amazon uk: they remove the VAT (tax) for shipping to the U.S., and the one box set I ordered (3-DVD Karate Kid set) was counted as 1 for shipping costs.

They were probably just happy to finally sell one



Just kidding!

It takes about 3-7 days with standard shipping. Like renaldow said, they always ship faster than DeepDiscountDVD.

i've only ordered from them once, and it was as speedy as everyone else can attest to.

amazon.co.uk is even faster than amazon.ca (Canada), go figure?! Just ordered "Nausicaa" from Amazon Japan am very curious to see how fast this arrives to my doorstep.

I placed an order with them, and it was delivered to me before I got out of my chair.

(hyperbole, yes, but they are fast!)
