[QUOTE="BarMoo, post: 16921, member: 175089"] LOL. My DVD's have so far taken 18 days not to arrive from the US. When they do, they will have been watched by the duty police, I will have to pay an import tarif, then pay the usual 16% VAT on top of all that. The final insult is the trip to some nasty building in West Berlin (which only seems full of ex-pats) to pick them up. Overall, I find that locally bought DVD's are cheaper by far. On satellite subterfuge (JohnMac) - I totally agree with him. I (sic)live in Berlin and I am happy to pay for my mother's licence fee to watch some UKTV over here. Alas, she's hooked-up with a new man who already has SKY. I just hope that things don't get to sticky (for me that is) :eek: However, it was my understanding that the OLD FTV cards will not be affected by the current card replacement scheme - correct? Have Fun, Mark. [/QUOTE]
