use this website as a reference when you scout for your HK bd.

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-14-71-13a-49-en.html

Then ask your friend to buy the movie at the BD shop around Mongkok. Price will be cheaper around rm10-20 than playasia.com

Theres a small shopping complex on nelson street (Mongkok) near the mongkok computer centre that has about 4-5 shops that only sell blu-rays.

You need to go down a flight of stairs from street level to get to them, it's quite hard to see. I only found it by accident becasue i saw some blu-ray posters in the entrance and decided to venture downstairs. Has a lot of US blu-ray as well and some of the best prices i found in Hong kong
http://forum.blu-ray.com/asia/76580-shops-...s-blu-rays.html

The shop name "Laser Collection"
The prices there are quite reasonable, atleast its cheaper than HMV HK.

Sure they are not one of those pirated shop in HK ? tongue.gif

nope, bought a few bd from there before.

Its how they display the bd kinda funny.
They display the movies with self printed empty bd case.
You need to ask for the movie at the counter or present the (empty) bd case.

I say its an efficient way to prevent theft.
only that shop have this style of shopping

most the shop does offer 3bd for hkd199
old/not popular movie are in the list and they use BD25.

Sino Centre (mongkok) - basement lvl
There you can find bds below rm100
Maybe that place is where your fren saw rm50 bds
They sell english movies in Japan packing quite cheap
The packing is like what you see at Amazon JP

Those bds I cannot confirm if it is original or not
coz I haven't buy 1 to try yet . . hehe

Yesterday's night, my internet line was down, can't online.  sweat.gif  cry.gif

But why nobody mentioned the US version of The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy Extended Edition now already reduced price to $69.99? Probably already cheaper than Canada version after the currency convertion.  tongue.gif

Pre-Ordered mine yesterday after I saw the new price. biggrin.gif
