Streets online used to be a great source for obtaining cheap DVD's, Videos, Books and Games. I've used them several times in the past but recently I've become a little disappointed with them. This was capped off the other day when I received an e-mail informing me that they're going to be introducing p&p charges.
Anyway, as mentioned they sell Books, Videos, DVD's games and CD's. A typical CD costs round £11.99 so straight away you can save yourself a reasonable amount by going over to www.cd-wow.com (£8.99 for single CD albums!). The price of CD's is supposed to be coming down due to their new pricing policy but then add £1 on for p&p and you'll find that there isn't any difference. Luckily the p&p is per order but if like me you only buy one at a time then that's not much use.
DVD's are quite expensive actually and on regular occasions you could actually get them at the same price or less from MVC and that's on the high street! www.play247.com certainly beat them on price here anyway.
Books are not really my thing but their prices seem reasonable enough.
Games, now this is my thing!
I have never bought a game from them although recently they had Crazy Taxi on the PS2 for £31.99 which was the best price I had seen anywhere. Generally the games prices are good but always check out www.simplygames.com first, they're usually the cheapest.
Customer service is on the ball from my experience. You get confirmation e-mails for orders and you can check the progress of your order(s) via your account options.
On the whole Streets
online are good value and good service but they are by no means the cheapest.
