After the revelation that I could unlock my expensive dvd/vcr/dvd recorder to play any region dvds I wished it too, I was faced with the problem of having too many choices about my dvd purchases. So I have tried to be sensible. I have plotted out in an excell spreadsheet, the prices both US and Australian, as well as the release dates. In many cases the US ones are prefereable as they have more special features than the Aussie ones. Also the prices includ the exchange rate, and in some cases probably the shipping charge as well. There are also some that are not avaliable here anyways...which means I HAVE to get them from the US, if I want to get them at all. So now the hard part is trying to decide which I want to get first. -should I got by release date, or by place in my overal list of favorite shows? Then of course there is the whole limited funds thing..and the fact that there are many dvds coming out here that I want to get as well.
I think I'll see how my work goes, if I get shifts next week and the week after, I might consider ordering 3 dvd sets instead of just 2...or 4 instead of 3 etc. I really want to start with Grey's Anatomy season's 2 and 3...but I should also work out whether NCIS comes out around the same time, and also Studio 60... buying them at the same time will save on postage...or maybe breaking it up into smaller groups, so I don't have to wait as long. -This is something that is going to bug me for a little while...
Damm options! It was so much easier when I had less to choose from!
