Region 5 Russian DVD's

Does anyone know of an e-tailer who sells official region 5 DVD's from Russia, that also ships to the US? I can find plenty of websites, but none of them seem to ship outside of Russia.

Anyone able to help? Please!

I should clarify a little, I am looking for an actual Russian retailer, not an American site like www.rbcmp3.com, which has a limited selection.

Thanks!

My Russian is poor at best, but my computer will display it nicely : )

Thanks for the link. I've actually been to that site before, but I haven't been able to access any kind of on-line shopping there. Am I missing something (I guess I must be)?

Thanks again. Unfortunately, they appear to be one of the sites that does not ship outside of Russia. When you get to the checkout stage, there is nowhere to enter an outside-of-Russia address : (

www.ozon.ru has a few Russian DVDs, as well as books, videos, software and music. They ship outside Russia...

Here's a direct link to their DVD page - http://www.ozon.ru/searchresult.cfm/...&maincatalog=1

Ashirg,

Thank you for the great link! At first glance they have a couple of titles I was looking for, so I'll give them a shot.

I appreciate the help : )

What titles you were looking for? Maybe I can also help you to find reviews...

Actually I find that most of the Russian films are less expensive if I purchase them in the US from www.ruscico.com. But there are some Region 5 DVD's of Takeshi Kitano that I had heard include English subs, so I wanted to check into it. I think "Getting Any?" was one of the titles.

Otherwise, I collect Jackie Chan DVD's from around the world, so I'd like to get some of the Reegion 5 releases.

If you have any suggestions for good Russian films or DVD's, please let me know!

Thanks again.

Russian DVD retailers...

I'm not sure why are you guys looking for Russian DVDs, but anyway... There are at least some more Russian DVD retailers out there:

www.bolero.ru (ships to US)
www.dvd100.ru (looks like this one does not ship outside Russia)
www.24x7.ru (ships to US)
www.ozon.ru (ships to US)
www.e-reference.ru (ships to US)


If you're lucky enough to read Russian, you can order some titles there... Remember - R5 means PAL. Not all the discs have the region code set, but all of them are pricey - the average price is $25, and the delivery to the US is too darn expensive.

none of the dvds in the series that includes the kitano disks have anything except the original language and russian on them. even the ruscico disks i have bought in moscow of russian films have only russian on, not various subtitles like the versions sold elsewhere.
