Thanks for correcting... :lol:
Any Quality issues (audio) because of using step-down converter ?

Shipping is very expensive. The package weight (gross weight) is 2.7 kg.

The reason for the increased weight assessment is because DHL, Fedex etc. that BL uses always take the greater of actual weight or volumetric weight (LxBxH).
iShopInternational and probably Aramex SnS etc. consolidate shipments into a container/pallet and then ship. If I am not mistaken, they use the actual weight, hence the lower shipping costs but there is a longer delay since they wait for a container/pallet to fill up before shipping
DHL, Fedex etc. ship immediately on receipt since they will fill up a container or pallet really quick given the volumes they do. They also have their own air cargo transport.

Express shipping does not make much of a difference. Standard gets it to you in 3 days, express will get it to you about a day sooner. That's been my experience as well as that of another FM from their post on the Aramex vs BL thread in the forum.

Beware to buy from USA, I had returned 2 new pan 220 yesterday which bought from amazon. It has hw and firmware issue. Totally fed up with this junk player and you can check my review in amazon under vel. I had Sony s580 and it is excellent for last 1.5 years...tried for region free, but player itself issue..:-(

I saw your review on Amazon US and am curious as to the problem you had with the Mad Men BD. Is this BD region free?
I got this BDP from Amazon US recently and have not had any problems with playback so far (I have region freed the BDP though) with region 2, region free BD's and region 1, 3, 5 DVD's. I don't have the Mad Men BD's as yet to be able to test, but am looking to get the boxset.
Did you have the BDP connected to the internet while trying to play the BD? Maybe it was trying to download something and had problems?

My player has played pretty much everything thrown at it.

BL (I presume Borderlinx) uses DHL, Fedex to clear customs. If duty is levied by customs DHL, Fedex will pay and collect from the end customer unless BL picks up the excess duty for the end customer.
There are other forwarders who clear in bulk and manage to sometimes get through customs by hook or by ....

For excellent sound that won't break the bank, the 5 Star Award Winning Wharfedale Diamond 12.1 Bookshelf Speakers is the one to consider!
