    I agree to a certain extent - but it is frustrating that this person managed to buy three copies when others couldn't even get on the waitlist. In fact, I tried to order more than one Kipling purse earlier (one for me and one as a gift) and couldn't so I suspect they must have had 3 separate IDs open at once, or something like that (still don't know how they were so fast though). But, yes we do know they were bought today because the listings actually state Amazon Black Friday in the title or the description.

    You don't for one minute believe they had 3 copies?

    Why not? Sorry if I'm being dim but I don't see the benefit in listing 3 if they don't have 3???? :huh:

    fair dos then...but i was referring more to the other listings that may well be legitmate....
    at the end of the day whether we like it or not, or if its fair or not, it happens. have been in a queue for concert tickets at the venue, and if you are able to buy 4 tickets in total, but only want 2, a tout will give you the money for all 4 so he can get the other 2 to sell on sites such as ebay for a vast profit....being honest who would turn down getting their tickets paid for out of principle.....
    the listings for the 1D albums that are starting at £30 aren't unreasonable.....however i do understand that people may not be able to afford this. bear in mind that the majority of ebay users are genuine people just trying to make some extra money....
  • On a related issue, when I've placed my orders throughout the day (:o) I've had messages on the check out page saying I've got a £10 voucher for fashion, and another voucher, something to do with itunes. However, I couldn't see any info about where to find the voucher codes, or whatever. Can anyone help please?

    I assume they were waiting to see what would go for most? Or maybe they say you lot has sussed them so had to another 2?

    I don't really know, but I do know 1 person could not have got 3 copies. Look how many people on this thread alone didn't even get 1!!

    The £10 voucher will apply automatically when you purchase an eligible item... as far as I know the mp3 download works the same. However no matter how many vouchers you qualified for you will only be able to use one of each
