Nice one Clayts.
I`ve just ordered one for the bedroom PC.
I will be checking Jungle every day now as I need a cheap graphics card.
Well spotted.

Darn, knew it was a bad idea to read this forum! Just gone and bought meself 2 of them, for about the same price as you would pay for a cheap cdrom drive elsewhere! Not sure what I am going to do with the second one, but I am sure I will think of something!

Again, Nice spot, and keep them comming!

I bought 3 one each for the kids and one as a present.

Its worth noting though that they are subject to very mixed reviews.

Fingers crossed.

What do yo mean you bought three? They are not f***ing apples. Why don`t you stop being so greedy when a bargain comes up. I ordered one this morning and don`t know if they will have enough stock to supply more than a few orders. It seems some people just can`t help themselves and buy multiples when they don`t even need the stuff. For the money spent on three drives you could have bought a faster, newer drive with buffer underrun protection (and left a few more bargain drives for others). you plonker.....

Just to point out that these clearance offers are first come, first served and restricted to one per customer - click on the main banner on the home page about the clearance specials.

I can only say to the person who says they are one of the best e-tailers around that you have been extraordinarily lucky - the vast majority of us have had nothing but problems with them - who remembers the 2 disc Se7en fiasco, for example ?

I`m not all bad.

I was looking for 2 CD-RW drives, found them on Jungle, then came here to tell others only to find this strand. The offer comes up on Pricerunner so it`s hardly our secret!

I can only apologise for my greed. In my defence I say that I have got a big family and Christmas is looming. Judging by the conditions, I have failed anyway.


If you are into sport (paricularly Cricket) and want some real x-mas bargains try http://www.newitts.com/email_silly_prices.asp

Finally it is worth noting that these Philips drives do have under run protection see

Sorry matchday

I woke up cranky, and now your explanation makes me feel like a HEEL.
As I said, I too ordered the CD drive so I`m glad to be wrong about the Buffer UnderRun bit... But will my Granny appreciate it for her Christmas?
