It must be a bit of a collectors item at this stage. The best price I see online is £34.69 on Blue Ray. I think its £1.19 P & P

€6 there on adverts, which is an awesome deal. He says you have to collect from Limerick, but I'm sure he'd post for a couple more quid.

I know this is an old thread now but Amazon have the entire Star Wars collection going for £37.75 on Blue-Ray. Add the extra 2% vat and conversion rate and it should work out around €48 - €49 approx.

The original trilogy is also available on Blue-ray for £30 - which is about €38.

Hope that helps someone

It certainly has gone up in price as its now £47.75 on Blu-Ray

Look out for offers from time to time as i got this one a while back down to £30 as i never had it on disc, although there's a version out from 2011 someone can tell me what the difference that one is?

Just got an email from Amazon and I see they now have the original trilogy on DVD for £15. Postage is going to be extra unless the order is brought up to £25 in value to qualify for free P & P
