    I wouldn't mind it if ebuyer1 had posted a little before going out of his/her way to defend the company but just joined today and spending all there time in this thread and I know they posted in the other thread before it was removed.

    It looks rather strange to me its been done many times before companies pretending to be customers and it wont be the last time either that it will be done on MSE or indeed the many sites that are around on net

    Excellent, facts and feedback and empirical evidence is seen as waffle. Pure genius!

    Brilliant, i cant believe this, it is still being suggested that i am associated with a company just because i said i would see if they would do business in a different way.

    Really would a person post that they would not do business with a company, as they have not accepted a different payment method than the one prescribed if they were linked to it.

    I did, my original post included that i thought things were not right with the payment methods requested etc, but my post containing this was removed within 60 minutes of posting it.

    It doesn't matter what you believe we all have different opinions on things. I cant believe you don't even think for one minute your posting history is at best fishy

    Not all of us on here are fools and have a open mind and question things.

    Oh and you very first post in other thread now removed and 4 minutes later the shop posts too which was also removed and do you seriously think that doesn't look odd? even despite the thread being a few days old

    Its the persistant and determined effort from a member of the public, with no ties whatsever to said company that gives it away, that they randomly signed up to MSE in order to go to such extremities for ANY company, good or bad, that makes the postal history (including the deleted posts they think have gone) merely a secondary addition to any suspicions.

    A good company knows that you cannot break a customer, you can only persuade or dissuade in order to try and bend them to a good deal. Anything above that, just puts them right off!

  • It's interesting that their showroom picture is very similar to that of Samsung's here:

    One might even think they had modelled theirs on it. :whistle:

    It's only a game
