Agreed. It really ****** me off that the protagonist who has ordered 4 then feels the need to come onto boards like this and brag about it :rolleyes:

Note it's not uncommon for losers to brag about managing to get a bargain posted in a forum/newsgroup just to troll others. Often in reality of course, just like everyone else, they didn't get anything.

Often also you will also see things like, for example, "I managed to get 20 to put on Ebay!!!" or "I phoned up and harrassed them and they agreed to send one." etc. I don't know why people rise to it. Just ignore it and wait for the next bargain to appear.

i think they would be hard pushed to be able to rely on any clause like that buried deep in their T&C but i would ask yourself 1 question

How much will it cost you to find out?
