    And in case you can't work it out,

    Comet = Kesa Group (though in the process of being sold off) another Europe wide electronics retailer - used to be part of the same group which owned B&Q and some other retailers

    Currys = DSG

    According to wikipedia, dsg run pixmania.

    I've intentionally not mentioned / linked to wikipedia, as you just get the usual 'but anyone can edit it' line, so have gone for more reliable sources!

    So what about all the other sources given to you?

    More specifically, what about DSG including pixmania in their financial results?

    So all these sources that have been linked to are all unreliable, yet you cannot link to or produce one single shred of evidence to back up your claim apart from one supposed email which could have come from anyone.

    That e-mail was sent from the company founder to a highly respected dropshipper. When you are dealing with a company at a high level, you know exactly what goes down. Something I doubt you know much about.

    much better

    and what about the financial results - are you telling me that DSG guilty of false accounting? That's a very significant allegation to make.
