Advantages: Great prices, Easy to navigate layout
Disadvantages: Little stock, no iformation on products

I buy a lot of DVDs and a few videos so I was glad to find this site. The first thing you see upon entering the site is the amateurish site design. It is a very simple and easy to navigate layout, but it looks like they have let a child colour it in with a yellow and blue crayon. Of course, you shouldn't judge a site on graphics only. There is still a chance to redeem itself by offering something special in another area. Price is that area. It also ...
...decorated in a tacky way. I have not been able to find a website to date that has lower prices. I think that they do not keep anything that is not in the charts in stock, however, as all my orders have had to be obtained from the supplier. For this reason, only take up their offer of lowest price if you don't mind waiting a week or more for the product to arrive. If you like waiting, you can also take advantage of the 20 percent discount on pre-ordered ... Read review

Advantages: Huge selection of videos and DVDs, the cheapest prices on the web
Disadvantages: Delivery can be slow

WOW...........what a find. I discovered ‘ChoicesDirect' when searching for a video on one of my personal favourite sites ‘ShopSmart', which allows you to compare prices froma varity of online shops, and noticed that the price on ‘ChoicesDirect' was considerably cheaper than any of the others. So I thought I better check it out. I'm glad to say I was not disappointed. ChoicesDirect (.co.uk) is a web site that specialises in the sale of videos, DVDs ...
...It claims to sell every single video and DVD currently on release in the UK. That's over 25,000 . Hard to believe I know but one search on pretty much anything will normally get you a range of products to buy. It also offers ex-rental videos and DVDs at greatly reduced prices. Although a good idea it is marred rather by the fact that the selection is fairly limited and basically only includes fairly new releases What's more, and this is the really ... Read review

Advantages: low prices free postage and packing
Disadvantages: sends you "junk mail"

We first came across this site while looking for a gift. We had decided to purchase a video boxed set for a relative's christmas gift, and used an online price comparison guide. ChoicesDirect came up not only with the best price, but featured free postage and packing. We decided to place our order with them, and were not disappointed. Within seven days we had our order as promised, even though it was rather late in the holiday shopping season. A ...
...It was by no means a recent release, but it was not a "classic" film either. We searched high and low at all the high street shops. We were even told at Blockbuster that they could not even order it for us because of the age of the film. Then we remembered ChoicesDirect. We logged onto the site, entered the film title, and up it popped. We ordered it and again, within seven days, we had our purchase in our hands. We tend to not purchase movies or ... Read review

Advantages: fairly cheap
Disadvantages: took ages to arrive

Choicesdirect.co.uk have a fairly extensive range of videos and dvds. I decided to buy "Go" from their after checking shopsmart.co.uk for the cheapest price, the movie was only £11.19 and post and packing was free so I decided to go with choices. I found that the whole ordering process took ages .....page after page, OK this may of been for security (and marketing) purposes but most web sites are much quicker. Choices Direct said that delivery ...
...days to arrive. The website is fairly easy to search around and probably will have the video or dvd that you are looking for, and I must admit the price does tend to be very good, but be prepared to wait your order. I found films2 to be a much better company. ... Read review

Advantages: Very friendly (if quaint) service
Disadvantages: Not the quickest of companies

Choices Direct is like one of the little shops you find in those villages that we all drive through using words like "pretty" and "quaint" as we go on our way. It appears to have no ambition to become one of the forerunners in its field, and indeed seems quite happy plodding along with its friends and family as purchasers. But this quiet exterior does hold one secret. They offer a discount on all videos purchased before their release date. For example, ...
...it on 30.11.00 because it wasn't due for release until the 4.12.00. What made the whole thing even better (and made it seem even more quaint) was the little note I got after having processed my order. It came from one of the processers, and told me that he had put my order through, but that I wouldn't get it until after it was released. It was almost like he was more used to talking to the little old ladies that come in. If you're not ni a hurry, ... Read review
