Thanks. But it seems they have run out of that particular one. At least that is what they say on their website. I don't know, but do they give rainchecks for items that are on sale?

I hope you meant to write "stock of DVD players" and not DVDs only.
What is the make please?

Yes, you are right - I meant a stock of multi-region DVD players, and not DVD discs.

The brand is Nova Digital DVD - not a known or popular brand.

But then what do you expect for $39 :o

The tragedy is that none of the big players like Sony or Parasonic make multi-region DVD players that are easily available and affordable.


Yes they do make them.....
For the European market :D

They probably won't give rainchecks for the items on Boxing week sale.
Also, they usually don't get this item in stock.

I had checked only a couple of weeks before (when I had originally posted this thread) and they said that they have never had any multi-region DVD players. Best Buy also said the same thing.

So this is very likely a one-time stock.

I suggest go to individual stores and not the website.
I bought from the FS in the Heartland shopping center.
I suggest call up different stores and wherever there is one available, put a hold on it and then go and pick it up.

Best Buy also has the same DVD player, but their stock is limited - when I went there, they were already sold out.

There are 3 different models from this manufacturer, and all of them are multi-region.
The cheapest one was at Best Buy for $25, but they sold out of that very fast :)
The next best was the one I got for $39.
There is another model for $49.

Won't it be easy to just create an image of the DVD and burn it as a multi-region. Blank DVD's are so cheap these days.
