I am glad to see that other people share my opinion of Benson's World. Although not the largest online retailer, and certainly not the flashiest website, Benson's World offers good service, and keen prices.
Benson's World have recently redesigned their website and many of the design problems with the original site have been sorted out. The design of the site should not be seen to be the most important factor when ordering from a site online, those ... ...Benson's World seems to score high on all these counts.
First of all, Benson's World is a member of the Which? Web Trader programme which is an association set up by the Consumer's Association to protect the interest of UK web-shoppers.
Second, the prices are keen. For instance, prior to it's actual release, I was able to buy a copy of The League of Gentlemen on DVD for despatch first class the day of release. The price? Just £16.99 - £3.00 cheaper ...

Advantages: cheap prices, good service Disadvantages: none
To be honest I had never heard of Benson world until I joined an affiliate programme. The company offer up to 40% off DVD’s and Videos. But do they hold to that promise? Well I will tell you what I have ordered and what I have saved in comparison to other sites offering the same goods.
I recently ordered One DVD (Charlie’s angels TV series) and one video (Lily Savage Live) from Benson world. At Benson world the total cost was £29.44 ... ...items would of cost £36.73 (including £2.75 p & p). While at Black star they would of cost me £32.88 (with free delivery). So by going to Benson world I managed to save £3.44 on the lowest other price I found.
But of course what is a cheap price if the service and delivery lack in quality? Well, actually they don’t lack at all. I waited about five days for the delivery of my goods (although the company say they dispatch orders within 5-7 days). ...

Advantages: fast site, good selection Disadvantages: not always the cheapest but very close to it
I run a web site in my spare time (more on that later) and, through that, I have come across a number of online shops. It still amazes me that some of the more common names in the real world have not grasped the concept and requirements of a decent web site. WH Smiths springs to mind straight away as their site is often slow and unwieldy but enough about them.
Bensonsworld is a very well run site, it loads fast and has as wide a selection as most ... ...to be on offer at about £15 or £16 pounds which combined with free postage makes Bensonsworld one of the top 3 online shops in my book.
Now, price is not everything despite the results of a poll I ran on my web site where nearly 80% of people rated it the most important factor when buying online. What good is a cheap DVD if the shop don't deliver it or won't exchange it if it turns up damaged ?
Also, like many other people on the 'net, I latched ...

...an incredible amount of DVD's, around 50,000 I believe, as well as books and recently they have listed laptops.
