Dollymarie Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 So you reckon if I go ahead and buy a region one dvd, (i need to buy it now as its for my boyfriends birthday this week) then when it comes if it doesnt play, I can do the unblocking then?Thanks for your help so far, and mnporter2001 are we talking (cough cough) dvd's?Dollymarie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Why buy a region 1 player!?Region 2's are dirt cheap, then get the unblocking info from the instructions above.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thatchermeup Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Go to Richer Sounds like I did and buy a multi-region dvd player (New) for £35. It plays everything from all over the world and because its from a shop, your get your standard guarentee time. Whiteladies road I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "backup" dvd will then play on ANY region DVD player and for considerably less than the prices quoted above .....and as you have bought the dvd anyway, ALL of the above is legal as long as it's for personal use. I certainly can't think of any other reasons people might do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
