Both sites ships their dvds for US and somo another coutries.
Unfortunatedly, there is no help page in English for these sites.

Example in the submarino's site, they charge a basic amout of R$30 and R$15 for each item, so if you are going to buy one dvd, you will pay R$45.00 (about 14 US dollars). (extracted from? http://www.submarino.com.br/local/autoa ... terior.asp )

There is another site, the www.cdpoint.com.br that have a little help in english on their site (help page: http://www.cdpoint.com.br/destaques/Internacional.cfm ) their shipping charge is better because with one charge of R$40, you can buy 6 dvd's, check there if you want.

Just a warning: some disney movies of live action ARE NOT encoded for the both region 1 and 4, but all animated ARE enconded for the region 1 and 4.

I'll look at www.cdpoint.com.br. Yeah, the online websites don't mention that animated DVDs are encoded for region 1. Thanks for the info!

I noticed that some DVDs are about R$ 36 on cdpoint.com.br R$ 36 = $11.80 USD. That's cheep!

That is because the covers of the discs only inform the region 4 encoding, they don`t mention that the dvd are dual-encoded

Some times you can have some luck and find a lot of discounts and prizes with disney dvd here, just an example? the www.americanas.com site are making a campain? buy the finding nemo dvd and get another disney dvd by free if you pay with your visa card.

*unfortunatedly, the americanas.com site don`t offer international shipping.

2099net, Expert on All Things Boxed, tells me it contains:

- A small book (in French)
- The Soundtrack CD (special edition, in French)
- A Keyring with a wierd head/book/bag thing attached
- The DVD (English or French supplements... French DTS)

Sounds groovy.
