Before getting the net, I used to go for long drives to Canberra for quality Private as my locals are crap. Now I will buy direct but....

Are there any hidden charges when buying on line in Aus with a credit card. Do any Aussies have experiences?

Also, do I get something extra for a big purchase? I am going to buy 1 box set of 6 dvd's, 4 more single dvd's and a magazine. Free postage perhaps plus a dvd sampler... How about a free 'old' movie in the warehouse..

The Private Shop offers a great service, take advantage of the free shipping offer when ordering over 100 Euros. There are no hidden charges just what your credit card charges for foreign exchange. I just wish the exchange rate was better :cry: I usually wait until it is at least 0.6 euros to the dollar though.

How long does it take to get here? I get very anxious when I buy on line and I would want them asap.

Give it about a week (but it can vary), when the order is dipatched you will be given a tracking number so you can keep an eye on its progress.

Well, I ordered. I have just been told by UPS that it will not arrive until next friday. That sux. Two weeks because Private sent it via the slowest mail possible. Bloody bloody.

Now I have to work out that I can stay home for that day or I will have to drive to Mascot, an hour away to collect from their warehouse. I don't mean to bitch but I want them asap.
