PRICES
All prices are effective 04/01/2006 and are subject to change without notice. Prices are for nontheatrical, non-television use only, and are F.O.B. Armonk, NY. New customers must pre-pay by check, Visa, or MasterCard, or send an authorized purchase order. Terms are NET 30 days.


Note: When you buy these programs, remember that a good portion of the price is returned to the producer in royalties, helping them to recoup production costs or invest in a new project. If the price listed is outside your range, please call us at (800)543-3764 to explain your circumstances.

Sales Tax
We are required to collect sales tax in California, Indiana, New York and Pennsylvania. The shipping charge includes shipping and handling and is included in all sales tax calculations. If your organization is tax exempt, please provide the appropriate documentation.

SHIPPING INFORMATION
United States
Shipping is free with prepaid orders to educational institutions only. Otherwise we charge $7 for the first DVD and $1 for each additional. We ship by First Class Mail, Priority Mail or UPS. Normally, you will receive your order within two to three weeks. If you need quicker service, we can ship by expedited means. Please call first to confirm that we have the program in stock, and to get a quote on shipping charges.

International
Shipping charges will depend on how you want the program(s) shipped: by air mail, surface mail, or by courier.

The prices listed are for NTSC DVD Region 0 or NTSC VHS cassettes (the US standard). All Bullfrog Films DVDs are “all-region” (but often referred to as “region free” or “Region 0”), meaning they should be compatible with any DVD player in any country. Region codes do not apply to the recordable DVD-R format.

Bullfrog Films DVDs are formatted for NTSC. For customers in areas that use PAL this is generally not an issue, as most DVD players sold in countries using the PAL standard are able to read both PAL and NTSC-formatted DVDs and DVD-Rs*. However, the majority of players sold in areas using the NTSC standard will not play PAL-formatted media. According to DVD Demystified, NTSC discs will play on over 95% of DVD players/systems worldwide.

Customers who require PAL-formatted DVDs should contact us via phone or email with your requests.

*Viewers in PAL regions may encounter a problem when attempting to watch an NTSC-formatted DVD/DVD-R via a PAL-only television set.

If you require a PAL or SECAM VHS you must tell us. There will probably be an additional charge for the conversion.

Note: The common denominator to all the titles on this web site is that Bullfrog has non-theatrical rights within the US. Outside the US the rule of thumb is that if the producer listed is a well-known large institution, such as the National Film Board of Canada, Film Australia, Australian Broadcasting Corporation etc., then we probably can NOT sell you the program. However, if the producer sounds like an independent company or producer, then we probably CAN sell you the program.

Please email us to confirm:
--the availability of the program(s) you are interested in
--the format you require
--the shipping method requested.
We will reply with a quotation or with contact information for the producer.

CANADIAN DEALER
Many of our titles are available in Canada from our dealer. (National Film Board of Canada titles are available from the NFB and CBC titles should be ordered directly.)

SALES REPRESENTATIVES

FREE PREVIEWS
Funded media buyers from US educational institutions can preview any Bullfrog DVD or video FREE before you buy. If you decide not to retain your preview, you pay only for return shipping charges and insurance. (Returned previews must be insured for $50 each.) The preview copy you will receive is of the whole film and the free preview privilege is intended to enable you to make an informed purchase decision about the film. The preview privilege is not available to renters, home video customers, or to those buying titles for under $90. Bullfrog Films reserves the right to revoke this privilege at any time if we feel it is not being utilized in the manner for which it is intended.

Preview copies are almost always new copies, and customers who retain their previews save 10% off the purchase price. Simply contact Bullfrog to let us know of your purchase request so that we can bill you the appropriate amount. If the preview does not suit your needs, it must be returned. See below.

RENTAL
K-12 teachers are entitled to a 30% discount on all rental fees, but you must include this on your purchase order.

Rental prices are for a three-day period in classrooms or small groups where no admission fee is charged.

Please give three weeks advance notice, and alternative dates whenever possible.

Rental copies must be returned by the specified date at the customer's expense. See below.

Overtime charges are assessed at 50% of the rental fee per day.

Please return videos by UPS, FedEx Ground, Priority Mail, or any traceable method.

PUBLIC PERFORMANCE RIGHTS
A "public performance" is any performance of a DVD or videocassette which occurs outside of the home, or at any place where people are gathered who are not family members, such as in a school or library. In most cases titles sold by video and retail outlets are restricted to home use only and do not include public performance rights. All of the prices listed on the individual film pages include public performance rights, EXCEPT those listed as "Home Use Versions". For further details, read the
license agreement.

WARRANTY
To safeguard your investment in Bullfrog DVDs and videocassettes, we will replace any damaged, stolen or misplaced Bullfrog DVD or VHS videocassette for $25. This warranty applies as long as the program is offered for sale. Please notify us of the circumstances.

VOLUME DISCOUNTS AND DUPLICATION LICENSES
We give substantial discounts on multiple video purchases. For quality control reasons and copyright protection we prefer to provide you with competitively priced, and guaranteed, pre-recorded cassettes. Just call us on our toll free number for a quote. We will honor purchases of additional copies at the lowest applicable discount rate within one year of the original purchase. For longer series, and in other special circumstances, video duplication licenses are more appropriate. Please call to discuss your needs.

TELEVISION
Television rights for cable, commercial or educational television are specifically NOT included with the life of copy license, rental, or preview of Bullfrog titles. Many titles however may be shown on television, but must be cleared for television and covered by a licensing agreement before being broadcast.

COPYRIGHT
Every program on this web site is protected by United States and international copyright laws. Licensing for life of copy, rental or previewing of any Bullfrog DVD or videocassette DOES NOT include the right to duplicate, digitize, transfer to any other medium, transmit by television or other devices or processes in whole or in part, edit, adapt or alter the program in any way whatsoever, without prior written permission from Bullfrog Films. No admission may be charged for any Bullfrog program (whether rented, previewed, or licensed) without written permission from Bullfrog Films.

MARC RECORDS
We can provide FULL MARC cataloging, on request, in either traditional card or automation formats to your library's specification. Call us for a detailed order form or download it from the web.
