As many of you know, when it comes to modern technology, I would regard myself as...
a)....A complete Muppett.
b)....A complete coward. (Ooooh, it's something new....I should be frightened of it.)

But sad to say, my obsession with the American TV series NCIS has (sort of) overcome this, and led me to risk a few quid, rather than wait for Amazon to sell the item I want in a few months, at something around twice the price.

I want series 10 (which has only just come out on DVD in the States).....and I want it now !

So....
I've actually finally registered with ebay !.....and ordered a copy from a 'top seller' in the UK.

I would ask for you wagers that.....
1).....I won't actually ever see this item (It does seem too good to be true as regards price and being available this quickly....It should be here by the end of next week.)
2).....It WON'T be the region 2 version, as stated.
3).....It'll be a counterfeit.
4).....What have I missed ?

I'm actually not going to be too bothered whatever happens...as far as I'm concerned, for the price, it was worth a 'punt'.....
But I'll be interested in your comments.

Cheers - Phil.

Top seller and UK? Chances are slim you will have trouble but if so ebay is quite good handling complaints. Make a Hardcopy (PDF Print) of the purchased product to verify it was advertised as region 2.

Welcome to ebay, where you make little to no savings buying Pendraken Minis

I'd go for "delivered as ordered".

Region 1

or what ever region Hong Kong is.

Well.....The seller's e'mail confirms region 2.....
I hope this doesn't turn into a hobby......looking at ebay every five minutes, in case there's something useful there.

Would it not be easier to watch it on Fox (Sky 124) or I could tell you what happens having already seen it.

You do like living dangerously, don't you.

Thanks NTM.

I'm afraid I won't contribute to that particular 'Empire'.....So I'd have to wait for 5 USA to broadcast it in a few months time.....
(I know what happens already.....I've read the synopsis of each of the episodes....VERY sad 'person' that I am.) )
I just want to see the episodes !!

Gutted to hear that Ziva is leaving after one or two (?) episodes of season 11.

Cheers - Phil.

I hope it works out OK, my only concerns would be how they've got it available before Amazon, and how they can sell it cheaper as well.

Well the series finished in the US on 14th May so 3 months for the DVD  release is quite long compared to some others

If only Game of Thrones was available on DVD within 3 months!  Nothing until next March I think...

I think I'm half expecting it to be a counterfeit. 
We'll see.

My one experience of something like this on eBay resulted in the seller having "complications" in receiving payment.

"Just send me your bank details and I'll sort it out" Yeah right!

Didn't get my DVDs but didn't lose my shirt

No following that notion. DVDs of such "spread" cost you roughly 1 - 2 quid untill they are in the shop and sold. Which means total cost. So why in god's name must these distributors charge more than 5 quid at all? And why did "A bridge to far" cost me in the region of 25 ? Moreover why did I pay it  

25 for a bridge to far?...I paid 3.99...You were being silly Roland I think
