    Where are you Canadians buying your DVDs?

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Where are you Canadians buying your DVD movies? I used to buy everything from Canshop.com. They informed me that they will no longer have pre-orders. I dont understand why, and no reason given. I used to pre-order for month, and they would be delivered as they were released to my door, with a flat 5.00 shipping fee. I have not found anyone to come close to there pricing yet. Any help?

    A copy of recent letter from Canshop:

    executive decision. Please check the site frequently as the new

      Come on Bruce, what about your buddy at A&B?? Even when I worked at Future Shop we had at least a LITTLE bit cheaper prices on DVD's... not much tho...

      I buy mine mostly from Chapters when there's coupons available, and sometimes from Future Shop especially their weekly half price disk. This week it's Erin Brokovich at $14.49.

      There is also a plug in available by a company called www.borderfree.com (BrentL can correct me on this one) that charges you a service fee for bypassing your disks through customs, at least I believe that's what they do... I haven't been able to install their plugin. Will maybe try Netscape instead.

      Other than that, we're SOL. (and my suggestions aren't even that good!) *L*

      Good luck!

      In the meantime try www.goldfishlegs.com and Canadian DVD Talk

        Your right Paul, Len can only get me a small discount, they come out at good prices, but the store is a couply of hours away, and I do like them delivered to my door. Chapters is not bad, when you calcalate the shipping, Future shop seems to been the best so far, with there free shipping.
