    RFW, if I remember correctly someone did help hub by looking at his ad and pointed out the competitors ad had a better picture and pointed out several other mistakes hub had made so it has been tried.

    I thought so, I had a quick look but couldn't find anything. Giving the benefit of the doubt that this isn't the biggest wind up of all time, I was assuming he might have moved on from products, that could be looked at.
    Although if you do search posts started by Hubb, there are about 200 but they seem to be similar threads started over and over. Paypal currency charges seems to be a new favourite, as are EDF bills, vet prescriptions and M&S customer service. I suspect a bad journalist at play.

    Well hubb, glad it's not just me listing stuff that just won't sell.

    Got loads of DDR2 & DDR3 laptop Ram that won't shift even at £1.50 a stick.
    Same for a wifi card, laptop DVD drive (might come in handy for repairs pile instead), printer labels and other stuff. Still, at least laptops are selling (even £1.87 profit is worth it).

    I have yet to find a use for CD / DVD drives.

    Hard drives i strip for the aluminium case. The discs are OK for ninja throwing stars but no practical uses as yet.

    Hubb, have you thought about the Betamax secondhand market?
