Re:
why cooped up at home buying stuff online when you can go out and shop til you drop?
Seriously the most useless response possible. There are hundreds of reasons why an expat would prefer NOT to go out shopping, chief among them the UTTER UNAVAILABILITY OF ANYTHING WE ACTUALLY WANT. Those of us researching here want to know where to look for what we need. We are not interested in wasting the day shopping for nothing.
Thank you to the posters who addressed the question; I still haven't been able to find The Simpsons season 16. (Already shopped 'til I dropped--everybody who ever carried it is apparently sold out).

Hey, check it out--another response that isn't helping anyone obtain DVDs!

Chill, it is Christmas!

Some joke and banter won't kill you.
Anyway, I've ordered DVD box sets from Amazon before and yeah, no problem there. Depends on the vendors though. Normally, items which are labelled "sold and shipped by Amazon.com" (instead of third party vendors) are always available for shipment to other countries, including Singapore.

Because, we've seen a lot of helpful posts from you huh? Always helping out, are aren't you??
Do you see the irony in your post?
This is the second time you've posted in this thread, neither of which help anyone obtain DVDs.
