Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
I also ordered on DVDPacific, after cancelling on Tower, and since friday they still not tried to charge my order though the money is waiting on my bank acount ! I think it's very complicated to order to United States, except with amazon but wich is more expensive !

Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
Yeah, it's frustrating to be a student Just got an e-mail from them which said the set shipped yesterday.Pete Martell wrote:Actually,they tried to charge my card two days ago,but the balance went a bit low after buying a Family Guy boxset
So,on Monday i'll be putting some money on my account and see what happens.
Don't worry,they will ship it to you.It usually takes 10 days to arrive to Europe.

Yes ! Shipped too !
Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
Hats off to DVDPlanet - got mine shipped to UK for a total of $98 including only $2.99 shipping (which I can't believe got it across the Atlantic in about 10 days). Also no prohibitive customs charge. That about £67 (damn our currency collapse!) so I'll definately use the again. Thanks to Dugpa for the heads up about the discount coupon.

No prob, but it was Pete Martell that did the detective work to find the best price. I just passed the message along.

Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
How did you use standard shipping?That's for the US only!98$ minus 3$ for shipping makes a 95$ total for the item,while it shouldn't cost more than 88$...bobkind3 wrote:Hats off to DVDPlanet - got mine shipped to UK for a total of $98 including only $2.99 shipping (which I can't believe got it across the Atlantic in about 10 days).

Sorry - you're right, just checked billing info. $90.72 in total. I think they had some server problems because I couldn't view my order online. Excellent deal given that I usually get some custom charge slapped on (well the charge is minor but the postal service (Royal Mail) slap a standard £10 handling charge even if the duty is as small 50p!)

You are still the first person that managed to have standard shipping on an overseas order
Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
Hi all - well despite my moaning & bitching I've now secured a copy of this set! I was pleased with the service i received from the seller so would like to recommend them for anyone buying from within the UK.
I ordered from the USA company CAIMAN via AMAZON UK. They were offering the set for £70 via their Caiman Bargain imprint. What impressed me was that they depatched the box the same day I ordered it, I received it in only 7 days (and this is in the week before Christmas), and there was no trouble whatsoever with Customs & Excise - in fact the box appeared to have been sent from within the UK. Not sure how they work it - maybe they send batches of goods over to the UK prior to advertising them for sale - but however they do it they are very competent at supplying to the UK. I've used caiman dozens and dozens of times actually and they are consistently excellent - and no, I'm not an employee or a share holder!!!

Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
I got a question about the condition of the dvd set because on amazon.co.uk it says that the Lime green set that Caiman is offering is only in used like new condition. So can you please let me know about the quality of the box set ? Did they send you a new one originally sealed in plastic foil or did they sent a used version ?cubist wrote: I ordered from the USA company CAIMAN via AMAZON UK.

Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
Hi Mb3 - yes I saw that when i ordered it and decided that as long as it was "like new" then I could live with it. However, having now received the item,which was sealed in platic foil (though that doesn't prove anything really), it sure looks like a brand new copy to me - all DVDs are spotless, no marks on the box, it contains the sheet of paper advertising his Lynch Coffee... I think it's new.Mb3 wrote:I got a question about the condition of the dvd set because on amazon.co.uk it says that the Lime green set that Caiman is offering is only in used like new condition.

It was also very well packaged to minimise damage in transit.
Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
Thanks a lot for the quick reply cubist. I think I'm going to order a copy even though the price is a little bit over 80 pounds right now. Anyway it's still cheaper to buy it there than on all of the other sites so thanks again for the hint cubist.
Re: Best Price Info for the David Lynch Lime Green Box Set
The way poor old sterling is going it may well be £90 next week! I agree that it is the cheapest price available for the UK that i've seen. Go get it mate.Mb3 wrote:Thanks a lot for the quick reply cubist. I think I'm going to order a copy even though the price is a little bit over 80 pounds right now.
