Is 49.99 a lot in pounds?
EDIT: 50 pounds is currently 86 american dollars, so I've descovered that I'm very happy with my full frame editions for now.
Good news is on amazon us DA is 30 american dollars per season, so that means about what, 17 or so pounds for you? Is that a good price?

Ha! I've got no clue the difference between wide screen and normal - due to being pretty dumb and having a TV the same age (almost) as I am (Over 30!! - I may be exaggerating slightly - about the TV, not me)
So I might jsut take you up on the offer CIA - I'll let you know if I don't get R1 cheap when the auction finishes on Friday!!
Who's looking nervous now?

That's an excellent price! Pretty much the same as a round of drinks for 5 in a normal priced pub!!
You may just have to become our US supplier ...

I checked again, and it's like $30 for the first, and $40 for the second, so just punch up Amazon US, I guess.
And widescreen means you get little black bars top and bottom of the screen, like in Firefly. My R1 DA fills the screen entirely, cause it's been zoomed into slightly, so some of what you see left and right is gone. If you have an old tv, and it's not big, full screen is nice, but I would like to see as much picture as I can, no matter what size it is.
But at 50 pounds per it's bloody unlikely.
Chrisisall, a bloake

You might wanna try looking somewhere else for the DVD's cisall - I've seen them for £19.99 a-piece - which really ain't too shabby considering how much more expensive stuff is over here. (I think they're in HMV btw). Oh, and I picked up mine for £34.99 buy-one-get-one-free in Woolworths - only £17.45 each(ish)! So I'm sure if you went looking (maybe try eBay) you'd find 'em cheaper.
Good Luck!

This is the cheapest I found DA here, so if you can't find it for less, ta-daa.
Plus I found a player that plays PAL for $30!!!Is that insane?

FLF, have you ever bought DVDs from the US??
Have tried to buy the R1 DVDs from Amazon US but they won't ship to the UK - you have to use the UK site, which (grr and woe is me!) don't of course have the R1 sets ...
Tres annoying ...
