Store very busy and slow going as everyone has to fill in a TV license form. .

Don't the staff realise they don't have to do that with items that don't have a tuner built-in?

And don't the customers know that they can just scribble down anything as as the customer isn't legally required to write their real name or address?

yeah, it's at this price because they're not paying the workers in the far east that much.

buy this at your conscience ...

I feel it is my moral duty to go and buy one. The way I see it is that if these do not sell out then Asda/Walmart will not buy any more, therefore indirectly putting people in the Far Eastern sweatshops out of a job.

I'm going to buy 2 to strengthen the foundations for my conservatory!:rotfl:

Just been BUT

Sold out by 9.00am in Colindale, London NW

Sold out by 10.30 at Sutton store (and no I didn't manage to get one!)

Very nice CS man told me people were buying 6 or 7 at a time despite there being a notice up saying only 1 per customer. The check-out staff were just putting them through as seperate transactions.

Now, why would someone need 7 DVD players....

They had plenty in Widnes this morning.

If anyone thinks the DVD player from asda is not for them, the Post Office are selling an AMSTRAD one for £12.50, plays everything and also has jpeg playback,. The Model is a E051, if anyone is interested.

they're on ebay already :rolleyes:

although with a BIN of £15, then less ebay/paypal fees I really can't see why people bother

edit: just seen one with a BIN of £13.99....madness (or desperation :rotfl: )

maybe but 10p listing days on that value would only save 25p.
There's still FVF and the extortionate paypal fees :rolleyes:
