    one of my mates went to something like this and paid about £100 for a camcorder

    she didnt get conned like has been mentioned above but she did get a knock off that i dont think even works.

    i only took my cards and there wasnt any bouncers there, it was quite relaxed and i didnt feel under pressure to stay- i was just amazed people fall for things like this!

    I have to say I totally disagree, in fact I am amazed at some of the views posted especially those of you that haven't even bought anything!

    I like most received a leaflet from Diamond Sales through my door advertising Wii's PS3's iPod's etc at unbelievable prices, and I have to say that I was quite sceptical at first.

    After initial apprehension my first bid was for a iPod Nano I offered £15 for it, just on a whim, and I won the Bid!!!!! I'm so pleased with it I still can't believe I only paid £15 for it - my son's birthday is coming soon and he's going to love it.

    I bought other things too such as a digital camera and some excellent wine, and am extremely happy with everything I've got (even the wife's pleased)

    People that don't buy anything and moan after about it just seem like sour yolks to me. I had a great day (the sales man was very funny) and got some great bargains.

    I will recommend it too anyone, and will be looking out for them for the next time they come around.

    Hmmm, I don't want to appear suspicious, but Mr Know - do you know how people generally respond to users who make their first post a glowing report of a service that is generally considered a scam?

    And how do they manage such expert service in so many areas, from jewellery to kitchenwares? And why do they only put a £20 reserve on items they claim are worth £1600?

    Not that I wish to be cynical, but a slick website does not an honest company make...

    I think that you are conected to the company.
    Dont think that we dont know that, we are not stupid on here, not foolish enough to fall for a "con" and your email which is also a "con"

    Im meaning that they set things up and if anyone is stupid enough to fall for their cons, ive no sympathy for them-none at all.

    If what you are saying is true then the people running it are fools as they would get far more than £15 for a Nano on ebay - first post and smells of kippers.
