    I put ?? after Rogue Traders ! :D Looks like other people have had a less than satisfactory experience with them going by this write up http://www.ciao.co.uk/UKDVDR__Review_5580883

    One bad review plus yours... out of how many transactions that they make?

    Like it or not, this is a very good deal for people who need a cheap monitor and in any event, what's the problem? Your CC company will reimburse if the transaction is fraudulent; yet I can't say I've ever had a problem with UKDVDR.

    Cheap as chips so buy while stocks last ... as they say:D

    Well - fingers crossed! I've taken the plunge and ordered a 15" CRT for delivery on Friday. I've also ordered a cakebox of 100 CD-R's which were a great bargain at only £7.14 + VAT.

    I'll post a report once I get the items on Friday.

    You could also look at your local freecycle for 15" CRT monitors. I offered mine to someone local lastweek and many were offered on a regular basis at my local freecycle.

    I and many people I know use them very often especially for their Epson inks (97p per cart lol) and never had a problem I suppose if you process several 1000 orders some are bound to go wrong doesnt excuse them though but never had a problem with an order from them though.

    also I wouldnt believe everything you read on Ciao etc, my aunt and uncle own a pub and theres constantly bad reviews on certain pub websites all seem to be written by the same person as they have the same bad spelling and grammar not to mention they mis spell the pubs name and the only person who used to do that was his old business partner funnily enough.

    Sometimes a pinch of salt is needed for some of these online review places
