Network dvd sale

BARGAIN! Bought Sid James/Peggy Mount 60's comedy George and the Dragon for a damn sight less than HMV have it for! That's my evenings tied up for a while - curse you Brunt for such a good link! (and it's not even pay day yet!)

I've got nearly 50 discs heading my way...now how to smuggle them in so Nick oesn't see them before slowly putting them on shelves and attempting the old "I've had these for ages" routine...

After browsing the extensive catalogue on that site, I have come to the conclusion that my elders and betters were lying to me. I clearly didn't watch too much telly as a kid as I have never heard of about 74% of the programmes listed.

Anyone know of a similar cheap dvd site that isn't limited to old ITV programmes?

I've found sites before that claim to specialise in DVD box sets, but they often seem, shall we say, less than reputable, so I wouldn't be in a rush to buy from them and then find out that I've just paid 50 euro for a dozen DVD-Rs in plastic envelopes.

Has anybody actually received an item they've ordered from that site? Ten days and it's still "Processing.."

Nothing here. Was wondering about the delay myself - guess they've been inundated...?

Got this e-mail today re my order;

Please note, when ordering titles from our website, that the software navigates the purchaser from our website to Worldpay (to take payment) and then back again to the Network website to finalise the order.

If you interrupt this redirection back from Worldpay or your browser security settings are configured to automatically stop this from happening then your payment will be taken but your order will not be finalised and your items will remain in your basket (which is local to the machine you are using). When you complete a purchase from the Network website you will have confirmation emails from both Worldpay (for payment) and from us (confirming your order details). If you do not have the latter then your purchase has not completed correctly.

If this is the case then please contact us (via the Contact Page), stating your name, address, order details and Worldpay ID (it's in the Worldpay email you will receive) and we will complete the transaction for you and ensure that you receive your order.

Which I guess explains the delay, but is still annoying!

Nah, the delay was caused by a greater demand than expected. A hell of a lot of people are getting that mail, basically everyone who signed up for mailings. I've recieved my first lot.

I sent them a (possibly needlessly) snippy e-mail last Thursday and got an almost immediate reply claiming my discs had been sent out on the Wednesday. They did arrive on Friday, but the invoice with Thursday's date rather gave the game away. So, they may well have a backlog, but get in touch and you can jump the queue.
