What reviewers often mention

🎯

Service quality

Reviewers often mention quick replacements, next-day dispatch, and careful packaging. Several name individual staff who sorted out delivery problems and damage. A repeating criticism describes pre-orders being cancelled and orders left unfulfilled shortly before release.

💰

Value for money

Customers frequently point to prices under major competitors and regular discounts on games and accessories. Many say the pricing keeps them coming back and builds loyalty. Some complaints claim payments were taken without delivery, or that refunds took a long time.

User experience

Users describe a site that’s easy to navigate, with a wide selection and loyalty offers that make repeat buying simple. Positive reviews also mention reliable dispatch for pre-orders and everyday items. Others criticise inconsistent courier performance and weak tracking that disrupted expected delivery times.

🔧

Product quality

Buyers commonly say items arrive brand new, sealed, and well protected during delivery. Many also confirm accessories fit and arrive in good condition. A few isolated complaints mention changed disc content and region-locking, standing out against otherwise positive quality feedback.

📞

Communication

Several customers praise clear, calm, proactive replies and offers to check back on stock. Other accounts describe missing dispatch updates, no replies, and accusatory messages about missing items. Some reviewers were told about supplier stock problems, but felt the explanation came too late.

Overall experience

Reviews divide between repeat buyers who highlight price, speed, and attentive help, and unhappy customers who report cancellations, missing deliveries, and alleged billing issues. This split shows up in both high and low ratings and shapes whether people say they’ll shop there again.

DAISLINE 4/5

Stupid and unwanted movies are irritating. For example, a Blu-ray movie I bought from this company called In Hell, but it is missing scenes from the original DVD version, and even has a different ending. Besides, the customer service is horrible. This movie was supposed to be region 2 and it was region locked. I think I got ripped off and the website is hard to get a hold of, can't find any email addresses and they don't update their facebook page. All I want is a refund because I didn’t get a movie worth my money. Refund me my hard earned cash now!!!
