    I'm sat at work 15:59.... (Italy) ready to hit F5 and.... I get knock at the door.

    I had to fix something for someone, done in 2 minutes but so was the deal.

    Do people think I come to work to do work??? - some people, I ask you! :rolleyes:

    I got one. Must have sold out after about 40 seconds. Takes ages to load up checkout.

    Right, any bids of £100 or more for mine ;)

    Now I'm hacked off. Had one in my basket, checkout, all details already in fields, click on buy and what happens, "An item in your basket has changed.", and it goes up to £100. Not a happy bunny.

    hehe, I was unlucky with the white. Never mind.

    Can't believe the number of people poo-pooing this. For those who get a great bargain, nice, for those who don't, unlucky. But to say it's a scam is a bit OTT.

    This is why I said its some sort of fix. How do they expect you to get one?

    Why not sell 100? Why 40?
