splashdvd?

Hi everyone just wondered if anyone out there has used splashdvd to order dvd`s and if so what they thought of there service etc.

I ordered a dvd on the 22nd dec 03 and payment was taken 23rd dec 03 i have emailed a few time with probably one maybe two replies from heaps of emails, last one i got said it was not in stock and they are trying to get hold of it.

Then why did they take my order if not in stock and also why take my money so soon, most other companys dont charge until its shipped.

I have been emailing again and have been getting no replies and even went on the phone and waited and waited on answer phone and i got fed up anf hung up, can anyone tell me if they have been having same problems.

its my first order with them and after i get this probably my last as one not only has the price of the item lowered since i purchased its a joke to have waited so long.

i would like to hear from other about them.

downloading stuff from a cd on my computer to t68i using usb data cable?help

can anyone help me out there i got a cd full of picss,logos,ringtones etc etc for my t68i i then purchased a usb cable so i can download the stuff to my phone when i try i can get my t68i to work with my pc, i thought it first it might be a bad usb cable but then found out i need to syncronize my pc with my phone.

Well i have this software on cd with my phone but i cant get it to download it says microsoft but be running prior to be install the download i did ask a guy who helped me by email but had not replied since as i am still stuck he said i needed to set up an account with microsoft explorer well i then tried to do this but it asks for stmp,pop and that other stuff and i dont have a clue so again i cannot sign up.

i am on windows xp and use aol if that helps me in getting any answers.

i was also told by the guy to sign up to orange for emails etc and to sign up to aol mobile which i have done but im rather puzzled as to what i do getting this cable i have to work and getting this info to my phone.

i thought i was as simple as plugging in the usb and away i went but i think not it would be great if someone out there gave me step by step instructions as to what i do here would be great.

Auction: 1981 ALI BOXING CARICATURE STATUE/FIGURE

[+P]£120.00[-P][+D]20-Sep-03 15:18:29 BST[-D][+I]2558213671[-I]Here is a rare ali boxer caricature statue/figure made of plaster/chalkware its an old item made in 1981(22 yrs old). These are no longer being made and the molds that they where done in where destroyed some years ago so the only way to get this item is from people`s collections. It sells for high prices in the usa if found and has to be more collectible when bob hope just past away not long ago. this item cost me over £200 and in the shape it is now as they are so rare and that did not include cost of postage if in mint condition this can sell for anything from £250 to £600 depending on the buyer. This item does have some shades of paint where the wrong shade was used for rapirs or paint loss im not sure but with the right paint could be like new again the rest of him looks like new i did not want to repaint him or sort that paint shades on him will leave that to buyer but im sure would be very easy to do. You have to rememeber this is 22 yrs old. It is a very rare item in the uk and if your a sports collector or boxing collector or ali collector then this item is a must. i do recommend next day delivery on this item and it will be double boxed and well packed.GROUCH MARX ON THE RIGHT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE AUCTION BUT IS AVAILABLE TO BUY IF REGUIRED

For Sale: ali boxing statue, bob hope and others

Hi everyone i have for sale an ali boxing statue which was made in the 80s and is no longer being made, its a caricature chalk/plaster statue with a large head and smaller body with a brown base.

its very collectible in the usa if you can ever find one and sell from anything from £250 to £800 its about 18" tall. this one i have does have some touch ups of paint on the nose,chin and leg im not sure why it came like this when i got it, it could be left the way it is or the buyer could repaint it if required apart from that its an amazing item and probaby the only one i think in the uk.
