    I dont think its spam just because he works for CPW?

    Lots and lots of Boots and Tesco employees post about deals and glitches..
  • I was questioning IF it was Spam not declaring it 100% was ;) I only did a quick post check as there is so much Spam on here recently. I'm actually quite interested for my Hubby as he doesn't have a laptop currently. But I like to be sure! :)

    Spam? The majority of OP's posts seem to be about carphone warehouse or Mobile phones?

    Well about a year ago he did declare he had just got a job a CPW!!


    I don't get what the problem is, if it's a legitimate deal, it's a nice thing he's doing, insider information of a great bargain, anyone tested it yet to say if its a scam or spam, what's the b-i-t-c-h-fest about ?
  • What !!!!!fest? All I see are people wishing to be careful and sure! Makes sense to me! Go ahead, Test the offer and feel free to let us know. I'm not even remotely close to manchester (at least a 3 hour drive away in fact) But if it is a good genuine deal then Fab as I have a friend who can pick me one up.

    I think its more the underhand way the deal has been posted - suggesting a HUGE glitch, and to get down to 'his' store quickly.

    This isn't just the store in Manchester, I checked this in other stores and the price is the same. I think you can go into any store because the staff say that it's available for delivery and they don't have them in store.

    I'm only trying to help people get a great bargain, feel free not to take it up.

    So whats the problem, is it a legitimate deal or not, are we going round in circles here looking for problems that don't exist , it sounds like a HUGE glitch and we know about it 'cos the guy works there and has kindly told us about it instead of ringing all his mates up to throw them all on eBay, again, whats the problem, see it for what it is.

    Thanks for that. I don't see what problem people have with this at all. All I mentioned was that it worked in one particular store, but I guess it will work anywhere too.

    Pos there if it worked for you.

    Online it's showing as £239.99, so however the OP knows about this, then it appears to be a very good offer, glitch whatever.
    Shame I'm nowhere near Manchester.
