Apologies in advance for sounding lazy but are there any other e-tailers that will ship large orders (upto 6 discs) in one pakage without the cases and for one set fee such as Adultdvdnow.
Me and afew friends each want to buy a couple of dvds each so were going to get them shipped altogether to one address to split the postage cost, however as always there is a problem, ADN are dearer on a couple of the titles by quite a large margin so were looking for alternative companys.
Fivestar are quick but I don`t fancy one of there large parcels getting thru customs (especially with 6 dvds in it) without getting hit for the duty/vat etc....

Thanks

Hello Stolt,
Our orders are usually shipped with the covers intact. But since our goal is to satisfy every customer, we can make special arrangements to fit your (or any other) request. Although we do not charge a flat fee, our international shipping rates are among the lowest in the business. You can check them out here. We look forward to having you as a customer.

Sincerely,

Mario Benner

Hi Mario @ BuyDVDPorn.com,

I think your international shipping rates is too high,
other store use DHL and UPS with cheaper prices.

Since USPS Express Mail can't guaranty 3 days delivery,
I prefer to use DHL and UPS.

The cheapest shipping rates I've ever found on the net is :
$9.95 1-7 DVDs (case included) to UK (use DHL)
$13.95 1-7 DVDs (case included) to Asia (use DHL)

All shipped in discrete packages .

Hmmmmm,

Ok, I think it's a tricky,
there are many stores apply low shipping rate,
but with high cost DVD.

At the other way some stores, provide good DVD prices,
but with high shipping rates .

The choice is yours!

1-7 DVDs with case - $29.00 use DHL and UPS WorldExpress
is the best combination so far (for me in Far East Asia).

I think UK or Europe will be cheaper.

As a sidenote, I believe that fewer stores use DHL for international shipments because of this:

Hi Mario,

Looking at your international shipping rates I have to agree with ookz, in that they do seem a bit high compared to some of the other suppliers, specifically 5-star and Adult DVD Now, who you'll find get a lot of the overseas customers from ADT.

Not that I'm in any position to tell you how to run your business of course, but you might want to have a look at it. DVDadvantage has good prices also, but due to their international shipping costs and such I haven't used them.

cheers,

scipio

DVDXtreme are very similar to ADN in shipping and service. The last time I used them they shipped just the disk and covers in the same type of envelopes ADN use. So less chance of Customs charges.

Shipping starts at $7.50 for 1-3 disks then and $1.50 for each addition.

I have made a little spreadsheet in my free time that takes into account the base cost and the international shipping charge as well as any current promotions offered trough ADV Talk. What I have noticed since then, is (for Canada) that DVD empire usually comes at the lowest price once shipping is included, especially with their current promo.

For example I used My Plaything: Tera Patrick (you can look at the base price for every store on this site), here are my results:
Store Shipping charge-1 item (basic shipping)
DVD Xtreme $5,50
Fivestar $5,00
DVD Exotic $4,00
Adult DVD Empire $5,45
Adult DVD Explorer $7,50
BuyDVD Porn $8,00
Jaded Video $8,00
X On Air $13,00
Gamelink $9,95
Adult DVD Now $14,95
DVD Advantage $30,00

The lowest overal price (excluding 5$ coupons from Gamelink and DVD Empire)were 29.45$ and 53.33$ even tough DVD Advantage had the lowest base price. BuyDVD Porn seems in the middle, only because of the high flat rate; I haven't checked with many titles.

I'd be willing to share my spreadsheet with anyone willing to get it. It's in Quattro Pro format (should work with Excel). I believe it is an useful tool for international shopper, since all you have to do is to manually edit the shipping grid and it will work fine after that.
