    The compliment slip that came in the box defiantly says congratulations on your win, regards feminine. So it is not a mag daily win. I have been chasing this for weeks and they promised me I would receive it this week.

    Fingers crossed that this was just a part of your prize, and there's more to come. Otherwise I agree with the ASA/IPM advice :)

    But wouldnt a couple of box sets comprise 40 dvds? I know its sneaky, but it will still total 40 dvds

    But they said "worth £1,000" - even considering the RRPs, that's not £1,000's worth.

    It's well over 50 dvd's but even using the highest prices they have been on Amazon it's only around £180 worth (blu ray would be higher) and I cannot imagine even rrps would take it over £300 worth out of a £1,000 "value".

    Hopefully as has already posted it is just one of several packages.

    Although the Sopranos is a few years old, I can imagine it made it back into the top 40 after the heartbreaking news about James Gandolfini...

    But it doesnt say you win the top 40 dvds. It says you win 40 new release dvds.

    Although i agree the prize value doesnt tally

    Ok update! This is what they sent me as a reply!

    Hi Sharon we're sorry to hear your prize hasn't met your expectations. Our prizes feature on the site and all delivery and organisation is taken care of by the PR company, who should have been liaising with u directly once we passed on your info. We're sorry this has not been a smooth process this time. We will pick up with the PR again and have them clarify what they have sent exactly. Many thanks for your patience.

    Thanks everyone for your help, I guess we win some and we lose some!
