mentioned on another thread.. Contact at Dabs has told us that Sony are trying to cause a buying frenzie for Christmas. We've been told they won't be in till mid November, but that could get changed again.

You'd do well to stay away from NUPLAYER.CO.UK then.

After recently experiencing a total nightmare with an online trader I thought I should bring it to your attention.

On the 11th October, I contacted nuplayer.co.uk via email to enquire as to the stock levels of their PSPs.

Almost immediatelty I received a response explaining that...'there are plently in stock, please go ahead and order'.

This was great news as Im sure some of you will appreciated how difficult it was to get your hands on these things then. I should have smelled a rat there and then.

I placed an order on the 12th and after 1 week, phoned them only to receive a replay that they were still being held in customs and my PSP should be with me the following week.

Hang on...I was told they were in stock. That was the first of many lies. I gave them the benefit of doubt and waited. Guess what?......no PSP.

I paid via paypal so I filed a paypal buyer complaint against them and asked nuplayer to cancel my order and issue a full refund. Great or so I thought.

I have been on the telephone every day since, demanding my refund and being told I will get it that day along with a telephone call just to confirm. Nothing.

The deadline for the Paypal complaint was today and was ruled in my favour. Unfortunately, Paypal could not recover the money and I have been left in the lurch. Some protection from paypal. I'm sure some of you have your opinions on that, however, my main beef is with nuplayer.

I contacted my credit card company today, who agree that nuplayer are 'on the fiddle' and my money was refunded.

I'm not entirely sure what happens with nuplayer now, but tread carefully, you don't want to lose money like I very nearly did.

Standard story, that's what we were orginally told but cos we do a lot of business with our supplier they told us what is really happening.

HMV do the black slimline PS2 + FIFA 2006 + Extra Pad + HMV discount card worth £5 on future game purchases for £115.

You can sell FIFA 2006 for £25 on eBay/amazon bringing it down to around £90
