    I'm more annoyed as I posted it on a small forum, shows up on HUKD almost straight after and then it gets mobbed by the people on there who buy them just to sell on for profit.

    DSR is the Distance selling regulation, basically means if they send you something you can inspect it and return it for a refund within 7 days or so., most shops accept stuff back up to 28 days or so still sealed for refunds (sometimes pay postage). May not apply if the place is in Hamburg like some are saying though
  • I ordered one via the phone sales line. cheers.

    As soon as anything is posted on the internet, it's out there. People always go on more than one forum, so someone from your small forum has picked it up and posted on a large forum. I've just shared the information on here, as this is another forum I go on.

    The only way to solve it, is not to post at all. lol.

    sales number??

    thanks guys.

    by the way, you did the good thing, posting. a bargain this good was bound to be snapped up by the greed squad!

    but what can ya do eh. its true, a no post would have been the best option. but someone is bound to come across it later on and still make a post. always happenes.

    thanks anyway

    It's more as soon as a genuinely good deal like this gets onto HUKD vultures abuse it to make a quick buck by buying far more than the average person then selling them on ebay or similar.

    Wouldn't hurt to say who found it originally either like you did saying you found it on HUKD :)
