  • I find it amusing that people find ordering something which could be a sofa for under a tenner when they know deep down inside it isn't going to be a sofa. Why is it funny? It's funny in the same way as cat aids is funny.

    I am all for a bargain but when it's something like this it's completely time wasting and bandwidth wasting for these forums.

    :rotfl: I suppose some people clearly get entertainment from needlessly spending money just to see what something is

    Yes but as the delivery was free and anything not wanted can be returned - who is actually wasting money?

    A huge thank you to all who post the comps and deals that make life so much fun!
  • And you are going to send said item which could be a "bird hook" back in the post etc for the sake of 9.50? For me my time is more important than 9.50 and the hassle of going to PO and repacking a "bird hook". Who knows you might be really taken with the "bird hook" and use it. There are loads of uses for "bird hooks"

    It's not a sofa !!!!!!! I can't believe people think they are going to get a sofa.

    no need to be so damn rude and less of the language

    Mind you, if Shatners Bassoon is really Gordon 'Brown or Obama, then I guess they might have a point. Probably a bit less important though.
  • I agree that this is very entertaining but I just hope that if sofa's don't turn up (which is most likely), people accept it and don't start kicking up a fuss & threatening legal action etc.
    I'm amazed how many people have done this in the past when they haven't got their bargain.
