A question :
I want to order a couple of dvd's but i live with somebody who has a habit of opening my mail before i get home from work. I've heard that some places dont send the packaging etc which is exactly what i want but will the dvd itself have the name of the film/nude pics on it ? Obviously if it does then it'll be obvious what kinda film it is !!
Hope that makes sense !

The titles are printed on the disc itself so if the package is opened the game is up. This is also true if your package is opened by Customs, they will confiscate your discs and send you a letter of seizure.

Hi there,
Titles that have recently been passed by the censors show penetration but no cumshots or anal sex, this rules out all but the lamest of adult material on the market. This recent case may be viewed as a step in the right direction, but there is a long way to go before we reach the freedom experienced in the USA and mainland Europe. In the UK there is a moral crusade played out by politicians, religious groups, the media etc. whenever the issue of pornography arises and because the law is unclear Customs and Excise will confiscate any material not approved by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC). This includes mainstream films which contain scenes which are deemed too violent, explicit etc.
Unfortunately, we in the UK have a history of not voicing complaints and accept what is fed to us. Unlike the US we do not have a Constitution that gives us the rights you enjoy, and any support for the legalisation of pornography would be met with a wall of protest from the moral crusaders.
Until the law changes the risk of imported porn being seized by Customs exists.
Any US distributors out there considering setting up an European operation? There are only a few dealers in adult DVD's here and they charge ridiculously high prices. Chance to corner the market guys!!!
Anybody else would like to comment?

Couldn't agree with you more Charlie....I only know of two half decent adult DVD suppliers (UK despatch but european based) both of which are obviously cornering a very lucrative market and no doubt ripping us Brits off in the process! As for customs problems..they are STILL a problem..rest assured (I know this certainly exists with ALL companies from the states and yes I have read the other UK topic threads etc and yes packages are still getting seized very regularly).
It would be very interesting however, with this recent ruling, to see what would happen if someone did contest a customs seizure in court..but we (particularly as Brits) dont want our sexual lives/names etc in all the papers etc....who would?
More european based suppliers that despatch from within the UK could set up and make a hell of a lot of money. Are you listening???
