    went to index yesterday and saw a notice which says they are withdrawing the 16day return policy from 25th may i believe.

    also remember if your purchase breaks down what happens then?
    Problem with having access to internet is that i get asked by many to solve their problems :( Well at least i learn something on the way :D

    Not impressed with their closing down sale - tried to get a toastie maker thing before, reduced from around £13 to about £3 - now it says, for the same one, that its half price, but it isn't - they've only knocked just over £1 off it. Grrr.

    Edit: in fact, there are a lot of things marked "half price" but then only have something like 80p knocked off. And they're not normally £1.60!!

    Theres nothing special about the index sale, alot of the stuff is only reduced by 10%.... i think your better off to wait till the prices have dropped some more.

    I agree - it is pretty rubbish at the moment and when I have tried to reserve anything, none of it is in stock. I think it'll probably be better actually going to the store, they tend to have clearance things out and less than advertised on the website.

    I think it depends what you are looking for. Some rings are reduced from 420 to 170! And all other rings are much cheaper then they say they are in the sale. We got one for 50% off!

    Also, all star wars items are 40% off so got Darth Tater for £5.99 and Monopoly for £15 :)
    Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:
