Great DVD supplier
Review of dvdplus.co.uk by AT100

Advantages: cheap, quick delivery, great customer service
Disadvantages: none

I came across this company who sell DVD, CDs and games online and they are very good. I bought 2 DVDs from them and using a comparison website they were usually the cheapest compared with other online retailers. They seem to stock most titles, from current releases to old films. The website is easy to navigate although sometimes a little bit slow. A useful function is that you are able to check how many copies of the dvd are in stock before you ...
...companies who only after ordering the item do they tell you they have to get it from a supplier... The delivery on my orders was fast, the DVD arriving within 2 days of ordering - well packaged etc. When I had to phone them about an error I had made when typing in my credit card details the phone was answered immediately and they were friendly and efficient. If you create an account when you make a purchase you are able to check the status of your ... Read review

the case of the missing dvd
Review of dvdplus.co.uk by PrincessGem

Advantages: cheap prices, free P&P
Disadvantages: terrible layout, wrong information

I found dvdplus.co.uk through what was then shopsmart.com (now kelkoo.com), searching for a specific DVD. This site turned out to be the cheapest option, so I gave it a go. First impressions of the site - dvdplus.co.uk is in fact a re-direct url which takes you to shopcreator.com/mall/dvdplus. The first sign of a company run on the cheap. This didn't bother me at all though considering I was getting a film on DVD for less than it would cost me to ...
...small companies are much more eager for your custom anyway, and thus treat you much better. The layout is poor, lacking on 'back' links, and the basket option failed on me a fair few times so I had to keep re-searching for my dvd. I finally got through to the checkout after a bit of faffing around. This site has a stock check facility, which is quite good, I ran that for the dvd I was ordering and found they had it in stock. So I tried to place ... Read review

DVDPlus my choice for DVD's
Review of dvdplus.co.uk by adm1447

Advantages: Cheap, quick, no credit card needed
Disadvantages: basic website may put some off

Since buying a DVD player a couple of years ago I immediately turned to the internet to buy DVD's to help reduce the extra cost over video. Over time I have used several different stores until I found DVDPlus. I was first put off by the basic web site in comparison to previous companies I used. However the prices shown were cheaper than most competitors. At the end of the day the web site is functional. A Search facility is available on the home ...
...or other. As if that were not enough there is also a search page that adds film board classification and decade film was made. There is also a 'what’s new' page which includes a list of offers, often a long detailed list over several pages. Other sections are latest releases and pre order titles. I have pre ordered from DVDPlus and received my order on day of release. There is a help section which details over several pages how to use the site. ... Read review

DVDs at Video Prices... U...
Review of dvdplus.co.uk by ia_young

Advantages: Bargain DVDs and quick delivery.
Disadvantages: none

I recently received an e-mail from DVD Plus informing me that they were back open for business again. About three or so months ago they had to shut down, obviously owned by a new company they have re-opened. It has been such a long time since I have been on the website that I can’t tell if it has been updated or improved. Anyway it is good that they are open, as from what I can remember the DVDs that they sell were around £4 to £5 cheaper than ...
...The design of the homepage is quite standard for this type of website, in the top left corner is their logo and along the top is their options bar with the following options; About DVD, Find a Film, What’s New, Your Account, Help and About Us. About DVD - This section basically explains what DVD is and why they think that it is the format of the future. Find a Film - This is basically the detailed search of the website. In this part you can ... Read review

U-Back from the dead, cheap bargain now on
Review of dvdplus.co.uk by pakalang

Advantages: dvd at cost price with fast delivery
Disadvantages: just relaunched!

UPDATED 21/04/01: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A few months ago, I've written an opinion about this site informing consumers that DVDplus have gone into liquidation(like what happened to letsbuyit.com)~~the old opinion can be found down the page.. However, a few days ago, I was quite suprised to received an email from them saying that they're back in business, and to launch their comeback from the 'dead', they're having a massive range of sale and bargain ...
...straight to the website and found out that the news is true and DVDplus is definitely back, alive and kickin'! Here's what's on offer at the moment: Buy DVDs at cost... --------------------- How's this for a scheme? DVDplus will sell you DVDs at cost price, and on the check-out screen, you decide how much to offer by way of a tip. If it works for restaurants, why won't it work on-line... Don't answer that. :) Jaw-dropping bargains for the sharp ... Read review
