    I hope they dont sell them :D

    Oh I didnt want one by the way I just love it when greedy people who do it for profit only then it backfires on them like today one ebayer for £299 and no offers.

    I do feel sorry for those who didn't get one and those had did pay far more before price reduction :)

    Some people were quick off the mark and have made a small fortune on ebay. Good for them.
  • Horlock, you don't have to read the comments, people tend to buy things because they want them, it shouldn't make a difference to you either way.

    There are always those who buy the lions share for their own profit, not always morally right and perhaps because they lack wealth in other aspects of life, however when glitches are posted it's not just the ebay sellers who benefit it's us regular joes who try to make our money stretch further and live frugally. I think I would prefer a handful of us regular joes to benefit and a dozen ebay sellers than deals not posted and no one benefits.

    its is a little annoying when people take the mic, wether it be tesco dd or someone trying to reserve 5 chimenas on another thread, thats human nature & tells me alot about those people.

    For me at this time of year a bargain is most needed, trying to keep up with the best gadgets etc etc before the mad christmas rush starts. Low income and single parents makes life tough !!

    I am greatful for anything I can get but please peeps think greed is not a nice trait in a person. I wanted 1 no more !!

    That's great. Good luck in your search.

    Why did you say you wanted one for charity on the reservations thread though? I remember your lovely name.:p:rotfl:

    Thanks but I am not a bad minded person. Your post above says YOU wanted it as a single parent struggling to make ends meet. Your reservation request states it was for a charity. I was making a tongue in cheek observation and mean no harm Piety is not that nice a trait.
