No probs with his purchasing

I guess that he is either landing at Sydney or Melbourne. In this case there are retail outlets that sell a wide range of DVD's and music. So he can pick up the SE Pocahontas there with no fuss. But the prices wil be slightly more expensive. If he is going into the city, there is no shortage of department stores that sell the DVD for much less. Depending on his time and energy, he could go to "Big W" and buy it for much less. The DVD is available everywhere at the moment, so he wont have trouble locating a copy. And it is EXCELLENT!!!

I don't think it's because of the location, it's because of the retailer.

Sanity Music (which has a store in Melbourne's Tullamarine airport) is possibly the worst place to buy DVDs (IMHO) as you'll pay through the nose.

I think he has a better (and cheaper) chance of buying at one of the other retailers closer to the CBD.

I suggest you show your Dad the following link so he knows exactly what the cover of the 2 disc version looks like. Tell him not to buy it, if it doesn't look like this...

http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/229269

Alternatively, if you have access to a credit card, you can always purchase the DVD from the Australian on-line dvd service - ezydvd....

The cost without shipping is AUD $18.03... which converts to MYR51.81.
= 51.81 Malaysia Ringgits
1 AUD = 2.8737 MYR
1 MYR = 0.348 AUD

Postage is AUD$5.50 (MYR 15.81).

Worth thinking about. It is a reliable service and you wont have to stress your Dad.

Hope that helps
