When the ALIEN set came out and was kind of pricey for my pocketbook I was looking for bargins and was eventually pointed to the UK set which was signifigantly less and I got it after I was assured it was region free. It worked out fine.
I hadn't thought much of it until the same thing came up with the Universal Monsters and Hitchcock sets. Pricier here, much less at Amazon UK. Both sets are promised to be region free. I have the Universal Monsters coffin set from the UK and am pretty happy with it.
So, how come these UK sets are signifigantly less than the US versions when they (as far as I can tell) have the same content? The packaging differs is some ways but that is no big deal to me.
