Boffer secret sell off shh starts sunday 7th dec

ben500

Apologies I do remember seeing it now, in poor taste but just boffer being boffer and trying to be a little outrageous.

As for the good boffer bad boffer debate, I judge as I find, I have had items with issues, all of the issues have been or are being resolved by boffer with no fuss or dispute, ie: 1 keyboard received instead of 3, ticket issued and remaining 2 delivered, swiss army cards, ticket issued refund agreed within 1hr of ticket being issued, boc = back of crap, I got what I paid for only the crap came in a box not a bag, no ticket issued crap remains in box whilst I work out who to inflict it on.

Most of us who buy from boffer are under no illusion as to the fact that they sell as much tat as they do bargains, we look for the bargains and hopefully don't end up with the tat, so far I'd say my experience has been good, I purchased a 32" tv at just over 50% of what I had anticipated paying, tv recorder again good value and functions as it should, I didn't need the tatty box it came in for any other purpose so no point in complaining about poor presentation. I appreciate their marketing tactics do smack a little of a one day sale type organisation but in my experience the products have been excellent value and the service has been good.

I hope those of you with problems manage to get them resolved.

As for the pic whilst unpleasant it's not much worse than most ps3 game covers.

Nice little stocking filler here at a reasonable price too.
Bench wallet and belt set £6.99 delivered.

If anyone is making a purchase of £50+ I think I have a couple of £5 codes and some £10 for £100+ purchases.

I would of still brought but that is out of order a image used like that in advertising
and as a previous customer and always online in certain place's advertising like that
is in bad taste and has offended quite a lot of people so it upto me if it offended me and upto others as well to report it if they find it offensive.

Only doing my job as a consumer people have a right to what they think and say
and if people dont like honest people it's their problem i am a fair honest person.

:cool:

I think with time, and with suitable psychiatric care, we will all learn to move on from seeing a man with tomato sauce on his face and a piece of metal plastered to his ear.

I don't recall voicing an opinion either way on whether it is appropriate to report the pic, I merely posted my own personal observations of it.

What do you make of this message in place of a pic?

edit - tried to paste a pic but it didn't work, it says something about the 'final countdown'

Is that it do you think? It's nearly my bedtime so please say yes!
