Just got my Simpsons Season 3 boxset in the post from PlayUSA, to find that the stupid punks in customs have charged me £8.37 Import tax.

I've got a feeling I wouldn't have had to pay it and the parcel wouldn't have been stopped if PlayUSA didn't insist on having the price on the front of the envelope.

Ahhh well, nevermind, I got the boxset a week before it's supposed to be released in the US so it's not all bad.

Some major Simpsonage watchage tonight me thinks.

I can't click the USA or Candian flags, they're blanked out. Oh, and I'd complain to PlayUSA about the sticky tape thing. I hate ANY imperfections on my DVDs. ANYTHING. I AM A PERFECTIONIST! :)

You can change the currency on the site, click on the flags.

Why do the Yanks insist on putting sticky tape on the back of their Simpsons boxsets? It was the same with Season 2, now I've got stick tape crap on the back of the box.

That's odd, as the set is only £24.99.

How come it's all in Pounds - what about the Yanks that want to order their own region? It'd be like putting the Play UK site in Dollars :\

I think I'll wait til October for the R2 release. I hate sodding Region 1s. None of my mates have Multi-Region players because they're silly goits, and so I can't take it round there's and watch it with them, as I do with most of my DVDs.

Good question though - why do Play put the price on? :|

Still, postman thinks I'm rich :0D
