OK.

Games listed as being English, genuine, in the UK (listing advises otherwise) and come up on an "in UK" search...... Yet the reality is (based on reading listing and feedback), they are being sold by a US seller, being shipped from Thailand, unboxed (image implys boxed, listing advises not), Thai version (English can be selected from menu), and of questionable origins.
Whilst it's easy to dislike sellers who waste your time with such listings, I find that my honest, clear, concise listings gain greatly from buyers having to wade through this kind of crap. Just my humble opinion.

i quite like this bit
"Please note that item with no insurance is not refundable"
makes me laugh that some seller's think that it's the buyers responsibility to make sure the item is insured to cover the seller0 -
