RE: Theiving B*****ds
I wonder if it was never in the box in the first place - some f***-up in the factory.
That`s exactly my feeling -its strange how everything else is there. All software, leads etc.
Shall hopefully know more tomorrow - when/if HQ ring me !!

RE: Theiving B*****ds
I sure hope they send out a replacement or ask me to return the original stuff. I couldn`t believe it when I opened the box - been waiting 5 days !! Gutted !!

Theiving B*****ds
Just received a parcel today.
Outside packaging intact - however inside the bloody item has been nicked !!
I`m thinking someone has repackaged the original box !!
I ordered a sat nav system from PCWorld - inside the box everything is there - packaging, software, leads, batteries etc - but no sat nav hardware !!
Phoned PCWorld who asked whether the seals were broke. I explained that all external packaging was intact but internally item was missing. They said I can`t return as I have broken the seal !! I said how can I check the item is there without opening the box ?? I also said isn`t it weird I have all the packaging, software etc ?
DHL said not their fault as the packaging was intact when I signed - which is true.
Have been passed on to PCWorld`s HQ - waiting call back.
Hope I get a positive outcome - but doesn`t sound good.
Any Advice ???

RE: LCD TV Probs
Thanks, but definately doesn`t have an auto option just PAL or Secam.
LCD TV Probs
Any help would be appreciated. My LCD TV doesn`t accept a NTSC output. This causes problems trying to watch region 1 discs. I get a scrolling colour picture !! I think the dvd player is fine cause before I changed to LCD everything was fine !
What can be done to rectify the problem ?? Anything ??

Yet another example of Blair`s Britain
I work in a busy inner city hospital - yesterday we were told one of the acute medical wards was closing immediately- due to finance !
That`s 30 less beds and 35 nursing staff needing to be redeployed.
Currently there is a complete job freeze as well as no study leave !
Good luck if you`re ill- the NHS is fast becoming a lottery

Customs help..

RE: EBay help please.
I shall ask them to return first, I think, as it was an overseas sale, and because of the low buy/sell.
The issue is over an issue number of a magazine being incorrect ( my typo ).
£40 at stake.
Thanks for your help, will let you know the outcome.
Update : Have emailed, with apologies and stated I will happily refund full amount and postage upon receipt of the goods.

RE: EBay help please.
They would like me to refund first.
Is this normal ? or am I being overly cautious ?
I don`t want to be money less and product less, although I do accept the refund issue.
Feedback for them is 100% but only based on 5 buyers/sellers.
EBay help please.
I recently sold an item on ebay. The buyer would like a refund ( for a genuine reason, totally my fault), and I`m happy to oblige.
Now what is the done thing ?
Do I refund the money, then he returns the goods ?
Does buyer return goods, then I refund money ?
Do I minus postage on refunding ?
Obviously I don`t want to be out of pocket, but I suppose neither does the buyer.
Help appreciated.
How easy is it ...?
Having read about the 12yr old getting sued for peer to peer downloading, and the music giants clamping down, i wondered...
Just how easy is it for these people to track you down ??
Not that I`ve anything to worry about, just curious as I imagined it was difficult.. must have been wrong
RE: New York short break advice
try the following sites
www.travelsphere.co.uk
www.travelscope.co.uk
both have short breaks from £299 per person inc flights
which, i don`t think is too bad and probably a realistic price
hope this helps
