2-3 weeks in my experience + a few days if you get hit by the gits at Mount Unpleasant.

As an alternative, you can use the US traders with storefronts on Amazon UK. Often they are cheaper than ordering through Amazon US. The ones I use most often are Moviemars and AllYourMusic.

Thanks, I thought Caiman had disappeared on the UK site, I used it a lot about a year ago, but lately, this seller is no longer listed in the queries I make.

Yes, I've found this recently too. I've bought quite a lot of stuff off Caiman over the years... Other market place sellers I'd recommend would be moviemars and allyourmusic.

If it's the same price from Amazon Canada you could get lucky like i seem to... the last two items I ordered, where I paid for 'Standard International Shipping' (ie the one that should be 8-12 weeks) they sent it via courier (especially handy whilst the Postal Strike rages) and it arrived within 3-4 days!

Can't say this will always happen but you never know

On amazon, just make sure there is 90 min inbetween each order. Otherwise, amazon will combine into a single package, which increases the value, which means you're very likely to be hit by customs because the package exceeded the tax free limit. The limit is good enough for one dvd/br at the time...

Do not confuse this with the limit on importing from non-EU if it is personal luggage when travelling. That limit has been raised last year by a substantial amount. But the limits on mails didn't change.

If it is important, say it. Otherwise, let silence speak.

It's a bit more expensive, but it's very interesting for items which cost more than the allowed import price. Since they ship from within the EU, you never have to pay taxes on any item ordered from them.

And faster delivery times should check there discounted section on Blu-rays some of those are not so badly priced.
