This is one of the best websites to buy music/dvds/games off I believe. I have ordered alot in the past (free Delivery) and they have always delivered it fast and effeciently. Once I had a CD with a smashed case so I told them and they reimbursed my account with 1 to cover that. Excellent service! Cheap also.
I think I have spent practically all my spare cash on this website in the past few years. This is the cheapest place to buy CDs and often DVDs and they always arrive within 3 days. If your wanting to buy a last minute present or just entertain yourself its definately the site to use. I spent alot of time ordering films this year to entertain myself at Uni without a TV. I really like the fact you can pre-order new CDs as well so you get them as sooon as they are released.
Play.com is an all round great store for entertainment products. They sell everything from electricals to clothes. There prices are more than reasonable and are generally the cheapest out of most online stores and quite definatly cheaper than high street stores.
Play.com also have regular sales and you can find some good bargins here. The other perk is that with cards like varsity card or being with RAC you get 5% discount. Also you can find discount vouchers online to make your cheap product cheaper.
There is also the play trade service which is average but i do prefer the amazon marketplace.
My major gripe with play is that they are slow with delivery (about 7 days) and they dont offer any sort of first class service. Although atleast the delivery is free.

Play.com offers a range of electronics, cd's, dvd's, books and computer games. All of which is well priced and there's free delivery to boot. Delivery is usually very quick and i have never waited for more than 3 days. Also, they have a wide variety of sales and deals such as 3 dvd's for 10 etc. They are always worth a look if you want something like a film and their playtrade system (similar to Amazon) can give up some good finds. A great and easy to use website.
This website seems to be good for DVDs and CDs etc, however I did buy a few items last Christmas which arrived in a less than satisfactory condition. I bought a slingshot chicken (yes sounds silly I know.... it was supposed to be) and all the stitching was coming undone on it and it hadn't even been used yet. I didnt bother sending it back because it's so much hassle but I doubt I will be buying anything similar to that from this website again.
A quality website for all things entertainment based. The prices are usually second to none, especially when the feature of free delivery on every item is factored into the equation. They seem to have every DVD you could ever want as well as every CD. An easily used website with quick delivery times and accurate delivery of ordered items. A must for any keen music or film enthusiast. I also forgot to mention its extensive video gaming section!
Play.com has very good prices. They offer a large range of cds, dvds, books and elctricals, they also have a small clothing section. Delivery is fast and also free.
Play.com is a good site for buying items from dvds to books. The prices on the site are very good and there are often sales; you can also shop from PlayTrade, where you can pick up new or used items cheaply. Perhaps the best feature of this site is the fact that all items have free delivery, and the speed of delivery means that it is rarely disappointing to shop from this site. Although I prefer Amazon for prices, free delivery on all items makes it worth looking at Play.com before making a purchase.
If you are looking to find CDs, DVDs, Games or Books for really reasonable prices, I suggest Play.com.
I have been using this website for several years now, and never had a problem where my product has arrived late or never at all. The CDs, DVDs, Games etc are all really resonably priced, with free delivery to the UK on EVERY product - no nasty suprise when you check out of high delivery charges!
Whats more they have great sales several times a year where you can pick up CDs, DVDs, Games or Books from around £2.99 or less.
The only negative point to Play.com is that when they deliver your goods, they deliver them in packaging which has Play.com printed really obviously on the front. So if you live in shared accomodation ie a block of flats, people will know you have recieved CDs, DVDs, Games or Books and may steal your package....
But on the whole a really good website where you can pick up some bargains!

I was really impressed by play.com, partly because of the prices (mostly much cheaper than you'll see in high street stores) and partly because of the speed of the service. What impressed me most however, was that when the mistakenly sent me the wrong dvd in an order, I emailed them that evening to complain, and they sent me the correct dvd within two days - without asking for any proof, or asking for the mistakenly sent dvd to be sent back (even though it was nearly twice as expensive as the dvd I had ordered!) Very impressive service, and I would highly recommend them.
Play.Com has grown and grown over the last couple of years, and is slowly starting to loosen the grip that Amazon has got over the online shopping market. They sell a really wide range of different items including, electronics, dvs, music, clothing and gadgets. The site has been made even easier to browse after its refit which was completed within the last couple of months. Everything Play.com does, it does it well, it holds a good amount of the items in stock, the site is easy to browse, the prices are good and they are posted out quickly. The Play.com sales are especially good, and seem to happen every few months, its well worth registering and letting them send you an email when they are on because there are some real bargains on their. It can be so cheap that you will often find people buying things from the sale and then immediatly listing them on Ebay afterwoods to be make a quick profit. Ons small thing to be are of is on many items they tell you a RRP and then the price they are selling it at, this RRP is often quite inflated and on most occasions you would never find that item being sold that high anywere so they do try to exagerate the deal your actually getting. This is really a minor niggle as the overall price you do pay is often very good. Another major plus witht he site is that they allow users to post reviews of items, this means you can read all these before committing to buy and make sure you know exactly what your paying for. I am yet to find any fault with the site or have any problems, from reader reviews I have read it seems that they resovolve issues vey quickly and their customer service is outstanding. Play.com is teaching the online market how it should be done.
An excellent website. If you are wanting to buy a dvd, game or cd, then play is the place to do it, there are always amazing offers on and items are always cheaper than in places like hmv. Its easy to set up an account, and it only takes a couple of days to arrive. Ive never had a problem with thier service. Watch out for the hot picks too- sometimes they take off £20 form items for a couple of days only. Worth checking up regularly in my opinion.
A good competitor with HMV.co.uk and other entertainment/ media companies. Overall, the site is easy to navigate and there are alway plenty of offers but I have only bought a few items from play.com as HMV often offers equal or better deals. It is still like this website and would not hesitate to use it again.
Play stock pretty much every DVD, CD or video game available and they sell them at low prices. They do free shipping and usually have a sale of some description on. It is very easy to find a bargain on play and i find it very hard to log on to the site and comes off without having bought something. The delivery is usually very fast but can take a few days if a product is in high demand.
An excellent website with competitvely priced cd, dvds, video games and other electronic goods. Delivery is free for most things which is very good and I have found delivery to be very fast as well. The site is easy to use and infomative. I also use the playtrade feature where you can sell your own cd, dvds etc which I think is also very good as you can make a bit of extra money.
I love this site. Its great for a massive range of things like DVD's but particularly it sells camera and photography accessories and things like memory cards very cheap.
I got a 2 GB XD memory card for about £15 and it works great, never had any problems. Another good thing it sells is TV boxsets, all the shows you can think of it has the boxsets and so much cheaper than on the highstreet. A big up side to this site is the fact it does not charge for delivery either.
The item arrives really fast too, normally only a few days after you have ordered. One problem is that it can be a hard site to navigate but i think it's just because there is so much stuff.

This is a great website for all things electrical, the prices are ace, and the delivery times are second to none. If your lucky you can sometimes recieve orders before they hav even come out.
Really fast service with a wide range of products such as books, DVDs and even digital cameras. Deliveries always come on time and delivery is free also the website is easy to use.
play.com is a great place to buy dvds books cds games etc. for good prices, generally cheaper than those in shops. the postage is free and usually only takes a couple of days. i also like the play trade section of the website where users can buy/sell second hand items for a lot cheaper than the new price, still with free delivery. the website has recently been redeveloped though and it has become a lot harder to find items as search results cannot be listed in order of price, popularity, alphabet, etc. which i dislike.
great web site haven't used that often but offers a wide range of games and dvds and other gadgets loved it was really impressed with how quick the payment and delivery was a great web site 10/10
In my opinion this site is the best site to buy books, games, CDs and Dvds. Firstly the layout of the website is very useful because everything is easy to find. Secondly the prices are really great and nearly all the time everything is in stock. Postage only takes a couple days so you can get what you want really quickly.
This site offers many different deals all the way through the year on DVDs, CD, Books and many other items. They have free delievery on all items and they are delievered quickly. This site is easy to use and follow.
I personally love this site, as it allows you to pre-order the latest games for consoles like the X-box 360. Play.com specialises in electronic equipment, with everything from DVD's to classic computer games. The prices of almost everything on this site are far cheaper than you will find in the shops and the postage and packaging is very reasonable.
Play.com is such a good website. Here you can buy cd's, dvd's games and much more. I recently bought a couple of chart cd's from this website as the prices are so cheap. The website is easy to use and reliable, and delivery is FREE!
A great website to have a browse on if you are after a dvd, cd or similar and you either cannot find it elsewhere or you are hunting around for a bargain. You can almost always find what you are after and at a fantastic price as well. Quick delivery and a very easy to use website, very impressed.
Play.com is a great site to buy games or dvds or music. I buy most of my games and dvds from here, as it is generally cheaper than alot of shops and other websites, and the delivery is normally within just a few days. The delivery is free, what more can you want?!
I've been a loyal customer of play.com for years. They offer CDs, DVDs, Computer Games, Books and other gadgets all at a highly competitive price. Before you buy any of these items check play.com first. It is likely that they will offer it at a better price, all with free delivery. Great quick service, i would definitely recommend this website.
this is a good place to buy the latest games and consoles from a well respected company. The prices are at a good price. Delivery is not bad but could be improved.
As stated below, the best way to describe play.com is to compared it to amazon, but on a smaller scale. They have an extensive range of products ranging from childrens toys to educational books. Any website that offers products at cheap prices can only been seen as a GOOD website.
Great website with a huge range of dvds and cd's aswell as electircal items. They do free delivery on pretty much anything so thats good. Recently I order a digital camera they unfortunetely sent me the wrong one which I has to send back at the cost of £6. They then sent me the correct one back with a £10 reimburshment for the postage I had to pay so not bad really as I only spent 6 and got 10. They are realyl helpful If they make a mistake.
a great site that is like a mini amazon. the offer free postage on almost every item, and they have a wide range of things from games and toys to computers and tvs, if you buy a game from them in a pre order they have a license to dispatch it a day early so it will arie the morning of launch which is very good as you get it then cheaper and it comes direct to you.
Play.com is a great way to purchase the latest highstreet cd's and dvd's at really cheap prices. They have a huge range of both old and new cd's and dvd's, so you are always certian to find something. What makes play.com unique from a majority of alternative websites providing cd's and dvd's to its customers is that there are no delivery charges, meaning the prices shown, are the prices you pay.

My first choice when buying more than one CD or DVD. Special offers such as 2 for £10 and clearance CD's from £1.99 mean you are likely to get a great deal, as there is a huge range of stock. With free delivery on everything you don't have to worry about comparing the prices with what you would save from shopping in person.
play.com is a gd website for bying, toys gadgets books dvds cds games etc. the best part is the deliverys are free and on time. the prices are very good and the qaulity is always good
i hav made a few purchases and no problems so far.

As a student, the films of books are sometimes easier to watch so picking up a DVD for a few pounds online is much more simple than going out to the shops to search for one.
A great website for everything you could need, especially for presents that are hard to find elsewhere.

This is a great website to buy games, DVDs, music etc. the prices are good and delivery time is within a few days. There is the ability to pre-order games so you receive them on the release day.
Personally I think that this is the best website around at the moment for CD's and music and other discs. Not only is it cheap but they do a great service and send them off very quickly and efficiently. A great service.
Play offer an absolutely exceptional service, their prices are normally the best online and their products the most accessible. I recieved a product within 23 hours of ordering it which is almost supernatural
there website is easy to navigate and intuitive, each section is clearly divided and links to each different section is found at the top of the page.
They also provide their customers with a top10 list of the most products bought within a certain section which aids the customer to make the right choice in choosing a top quality product.

Good service. No next day delivery though which sucks but other than that the prices are hard to beat & when there's a sale on it is REALLY on. The prices be slashed down to 2 or 3 pound for DVDs and that is really great. It's a great online store.
In my opinion the best online store for CD, DVDs etc. There is a huge selection and all the latest titles can be brought, usually at a discount. There online security is great which is always reassuring in this day and age. P and p is free so you save even more compared to the other online stores. Not only is postage free but it is also very quick, typically in my experience it takes m2 days to arrive. This is also true around Christmas where the last minute deals are there to be had and you can rely on them to deliver your stuff before the big day.
One of the best online retailers of CDs, DVDs and Video games out there, it has a huge variety on offer at very competitive prices. The best thing about play.com however, is the fact that delivery is free; so whereas you might fork out a few quid on postage on other sites, you can usually pick up a bargain with free and quick delivery at play.com.
I would have to rate this online retailer as one of the best out there. The prices are exceptionally cheap and the deals are excellent. The delivery is very quick and their selection of items is extremely broad. If something goes wrong with your order they are very responsive and helpful, offering you credible alternatives. I always search this retailer first when I am looking for a book, CD or DVD.
A great cheap electronics website where you can buy or pre order games, music or dvds at a much lower cost than all the high street chain. Postage also is very cheap and the delivery service is very fast indeed
Play.com is a great place to get all of your entertainment needs satisfied! The prices beat most highstreet stores and they deliver within 2-3 days which is nice if you in a rush!
Wide range of modern and older CDs,DVDs and Games
Wide range of modern and older CDs,DVDs and Games
Great internet shopping site, which offers some of the best deals around on DVDs and games. However the best offers are on Memory cards, and related products, which greatly undercut Amazon and high street offers.
Play.com is a great place to get all of your entertainment needs satisfied. The prices are great and the delivery even better. They stock a variety of old and new DVDs and CDs, so there really is something for everyone!
Play.com is a great website for all you entertainment needs! They originally began selling just CDs and DVDs but as the site has grown in popularity you can now but all kinds of things, from cameras to t-shirts, merchandise to books. It really is a great website, and whats more it's generally cheaper than any other website or shop selling similar items. Delivery is free and generally very quick and efficient. If it wasn't for play.com i'd have a lot less CDs and Christmas would be alot more expensive!
Play.com is a great website to find any DVD'S, games and any accessories. The products on the site are generally cheap and have a very wide range of items for sale. Great site.
This is a very well set out website and easy to use. The best thing about this site is it has everything you're looking for in the games, dvd's or cd collection. The prices are really cheap and the delivary is also very quick. Cant find any faults with it!
Their delivery service is very good and reliable. If I am going to buy DVDs online I always get them here because I trust them and they have never sent me the wrong thing or a faulty product.
A great site for purchasing games, consoles, gadgets and clothes. They constantly have sales on which includes the '£5 for everything offer'. I bought my friend a great gadget for here for £5 which was the gentlemans ball scratcher. A great site for secreat santa when you all have a limited budget.
Play.com is a brilliant site for choosing and purchasing all new and old DVDs and CDs. It has always got special offers and promotions on. Beats most highstreet stores and is more convient. Delivery is very fast and reliable.
Play.com is the best website for getting all thise CD's and DVD's you are desperate to add to your collection!
Usually beating most high street prices the website has an extensive repertoire of recent releases and old school classics.
Give it a go!

Cheap cd's, dvds and games come here for hassle free online shopping much cheaper than the highstreet. The delivery rates are reasonable as are delivery times, a simple review for a simple easy to navigate site.
A great website for ordering any cds, dvds and games at very very low prices. Also provides a great pre order service which allows the user to decide to buy before the product is released and it will be dispatched on the day of the release - great when you want a new game such as upcoming GTA4
This is a good website for ordering Cds, DVDs and games. They deliver in 2-3 days as long as you order before 4pm. Secure packaging and you can get it recorded delivery so it doesnt get lost. My friend regularly gets DVDs from this website and they are around the same prices as HMV if a little bit cheaper.
A great place to buy cheap games, cd's and dvd's at very cheap prices and almost always cheaper than buying the item from the high street. And delivery prices are very low and items are always dispatched very very quickly.
What a great place to buy cheap electronical goods from DVD's to game console games. Always cheaper than buying the items from a high street retailer, postage is very cheap and the dispatch time of items is incredible - great service provided to all
Wow, such a great idea! So much cheaper to buy your CDs on than retailers in the shops and such fast delievery. Used this for my christmas presents last year, really good service and saves you so much money! Great for finding really obscure CDs too that you would have to spend ages looking for in the likes of HMV.
A massive selection of CD, DVD's, books, electronics, computer stuff and much much more. Nearly everything on the website will be cheaper than RRP and the price you would pay on the highstreet for identical items. The postage is free, and very reliable (I've never been left waiting ages for an item). I once had a problem with an item getting lost in the post, but Play.com merely waited a week to see if it turned up and then replaced the item without any hassle. I would recommend this company to anyone.
This is a really good online retailer. The prices include postage so what you see is what you pay. Prices for new stuff can be quite expensive but older things are really good value and the second hand area contains some real deals.
Got to agree with all the above, it's a great website for CDs, DVDs, books, games and other things. They're dead easy to order and arrive quickly after. Prices are slightly lower than you'd expect on the high street, too.
this is an incredible website!! it is the place to go on the internet to pick up very cheap dvds and cds, it is similar to amazon in that you can buy off the actual play site or you can buy off the marketplace, the cheapest dvds are normally found on the marketplace and you can choose between whether you want old or new, but even when i have ordered old dvds the quality has been perfect, the sellers all seem very reliable, it is also free delivery on everything!!
I find Play.com is the best place to come for heavily discounted Cds and DVDs. The delivery is always free and it often takes only 24 hours to be delivered. I recently bought the series 3 dvd boxset of The Mighty Boosh and it only cost 12 pounds reduced from 22, which was the best price on the internet.
One of my favourite online retailers. Really user friendly site with a wide range of products which is always expanding, they offer very competitive prices and the free delivery is what sets it above some of its competitors such as Amazon.
Play.com offers a full range of DVDs, CDs, box sets and even gadgets. The site is really easy to navigate round and the payment process is really easy to follow.I have found that this is the cheapest website by far for anything media related. Play.com often have sales where they offer hundreds of classic CDs and DVDs form £5, when they are at least still £10 at other stores.I recently purchased memory cards and a usb stick from the website after find it was the cheapest by nearly half on some items!
play.com is an excellent website where you can buy dvds, books, electronics and many other products. Prices are often cheaper than high street stores especially for dvds but it is also useful to check amazon before ordering. The best part about the wesbite is free delivery! It is also easy to navigate and find what you are looking for.
This is the place to go for DVD's and Books at cheap prices. One of the biggest advantages of this store over other stores is that it offers free delivery. I did manage to save £2 though by ordering all the gifts on Amazon and qualifying for free delivery. The site always has great competions - not that I ever win, but be careful as they tend to sign you up for the newsletter.
