For $15 a man of your means shouldn't even pause to hesitate

I hesitate because it is from Hong Kong. Not that anything is wrong with that. I have gotten things via Amazon from Hong Kong. The not knowing with certainty that the standard DVD is a Region 1 as claimed. Sometimes things are lost in translation as it were.

I know what you mean but I'd still take the chance if it's something you want to watch...my DVD player is region free.
