Page 1 of Friends Season 9 for £37.99 at Play.com

www.play.com now have all the Friends boxsets at the promotional price including series 9
thats series 1 to 6 at 17.99
and series 7 to 9 at 37.99

Can you provide a link, as it`s showing as £73.99.

Cheers

This would be still liable for import tax at £37.99 for series 9 wouldn`t it?

What do you think?- how much could this add to the price if it was charged with taxes.

Thanks.

BTW this must be the best price for series 9 though surely.
Anyone know anywhere better?

Just looked on site

IT SAYS £73.99

I think i will leave it at this price. I wouldn`t pay any more than £50 for this so i will be waiting for it in the sales.

OK found them at £37.99

Can someone now explain the import tax liability on this purchase please.

thanks.

Thought you were only liable for import duty tax on region 1 dvd`s over £18. Should be okay for region 2 but not 100% sure. :/

Friends Season 7 & 8 (region2) are £28.99 on Cdwow.

good spot ordered one for the missus... should earn me some brownie points?

"I`m going to live forever, or die trying"...

if you search on play for "promotion" it will bring up all the friends boxsets on offer, I have noticed that they are actually not available yet so are in actual fact a pre-order

I don`t get it, why do they have 73.99 boxset available now

but the 37.99 priced one is not available until 27/10/03

Surely they are both exactly the same thing?

Tell me if i`m wrong.

PS. I think any item from Jersey into the UK with a declared value over £18 is likely to qualify for import duties. It just depends on whether it gets caught!

With the likely size of this package i reckon the chances are it will be caught.

I think they`ve done this because of splash

with splash recently moving to Jersey, play will be under more pressure and have negotiated this deal, but obviously couldn`t get the deal till 27/10/03, but to stop customers going to splash have advertised it now.
as far as import duties I have never had to pay from Jersey and I have had a lot, if you visit their region one site they warn you if you will have to pay duty, as they did before the site split, so I think they would say if there was a risk.
