  • Not every "bargain" posted on this forum is going to appeal to everyone, but the fact is that this is a particularly cheap price for this product, and isn't that the point of this site?

    I don't think people posting opinions on it being "pointless" or "vain" is particularly helpful. It's a pretty self-explanatory product, and the price is clearly stated in the subject line, if it doesn't interest you then just don't click it! :rolleyes:

    In your opinion the product is vain and pointless but to others its not - so I wonder why you feel the need to keep making the point? :confused: Several people WILL have saved money today because of this thread and that is what this forum is all about. :D

    Um, I think you'll find my posts have all been in response to someone elses - seems reasonable on a discussion forum! :rolleyes:

    I think it's quite unlikely that many people have saved money - that would require someone to be actively looking for a branded passport holder in the first place, I think more people will have been enticed into spending money. I'll leave it here though as it seems it's not the done thing to discuss the items on offer on this discussion board...

    Not when discussing means saying things knowing that its going to get people backs up, you know what the title of the thread is.

    If people want to buy a passport holder to protect there passport which will save it being damaged wheather its branded or not then let them. It costs alot more money to replace it than protect it- and replacing isnt money saving so imo protecting it with a cover is.

    As someone who was looking for a nice passport holder to protect it in my bag, this was ideal and did save me money.
    Many thanks to the OP and it is my money and if I choose to spend it on a Radley cover then that is my choice and that is what this board is all about, maximising my choices as far as I can see.

  • A practical solution to what problem?

    If you get nervous due to anything posted on this thread maybe the internet's not for you? :D No-one's criticised anyone else, a few of us have simply made the point that the product under discussion seems a bit pointless...

    You said that people who might choose to buy this product are vain - that's a criticism in my view. Oh and the 'nervous' comment was tongue in cheek by the way..;)
