Hey, let me help you out.

Shipping Costs:INDIAWEEKLY

DVD/Video Cassette
Handling/Processing $3.99 Per Order
Shipping $2.00 per item

CD/Audio Cassette
Handling/Processing $3.99 Per Order
Shipping $1.50 per item

NEHAFLIX

Processing/Handling $9.99
Shipping $1.99 Per Item

INDIAPLAZA

USPS Express Int'l Mail: Flat charge of $25.00 per order, plus, $5 per DVD Collection.

You can click on the link to the site and it will take you to the shipping rates page. DVD pricewise INDIAPLAZA is tops them all, they are expensive that's cause they give free delivery to usa resident and they price of the shipping has to be included in the dvd cost.

INDIAWEEKLY & NEHAFLIX, both have good prices. IW will price-match (some exceptions may apply) any website with lower price for a dvd. IW will even beat the lower by 10% further discount.

NX will also price-match any website with lower price BUT will not give any further discount. Prompt response, Prompt Shipping.

Processing = $2 US per order
Add = $ 1 US per DVD.

Rana, I think shuman was probably referring to UK rates? For me it was 9.99 per order and 1.99 per dvd i think (i was in Grenada, West Indies at the time). I don't know the cost to the UK. :)

Yes, i have purchased both from indiaweekly.com, nehaflix.com;
With IW, number of times i did get custom charge, and couple of times they reembursed me the customs.

With NX, haven't got a single custom charge, and they will not reemburse any custom charges according to their policy posted on their website!

now tha's a hard question. it's really your call. i 've provided the facts, you will kind a have to make a choice.

NX prompt response is very much appreciated; stress seems to be out of their vocabulary, if you know what i mean! There are so many vendors, it's not possible to make a correct judgement to say who is the cheapest. NX has very much competetive prices as others. If you find their prices high, you can matches to the lowest price you can find on the net. They will do it before you can blink twice.

IW service is great too. it's not really possible to have them rush to respond to one's concern with urgency. They have busy a very schedule, according to them. Inkey chahaney wale bahut hai, is liye koi ek pe dhyan nahin de saktey. Someday their prices used to be unbelievable and still have some dvds at ridiculous pricing.

Faster Delivery is really independant from vendors. It's really the method of shipment delays now-and-then. If you mean who ships quicker, then again it really depends on how many order does one have and also the level of priority is also a key factor.

NX so far been quick in shipping orders out. There were number of times, there were some sort of delay. But you will precisely know when your orders have been shipped EXACTLY.

IW ships out orders in a random fashion. Usually ships within 3-4 days, number of times the customs badly delayed orders. Couple times especially when i would put the order over the phone, they would ship it on the following morning.. They also have a thing where you can track your order, dont know about others, for me it only worked 50% of time.

Well, GIRL.. you have everything you want to know about these two folks.. if you want to take my advise.. try them both.

thank u. :D
i have tried indiaweekly twice but both times got charged customs & order was sent out after 3- 5 days time after placing.

about tracking same here worked once so 50/50

NX havent tried that before... am thinking of trying it. since u gave a postive thought of its service!

so a question say NX has a dvd at a higher price then IW can u tell them & will they reduce the price?

i have seen that NX take paypal! which is great i use that alot... more payment methods.

Only thing NX charge more for handling then IW.
