    Wow inch perfect product display. I wonder if thats a criteria when selling Samsung goods.

    But oh they are not Samsung goods, Someone edited the word Samsung out of the image.

    Amazed at how they even got the same lighting effects.

    May give them a call tomorrow.

    What have MSE done wrong? All the salient points are still in the OP's original post. They've just removed the irrelevant bit which was the "Spammer" bit of the post. It's meant to be a serious consumer rights forum so I can see why they wouldn't want to keep that on.

    It might not be personal abuse but it was still one poster accusing another poster of lying.

    You love bumping your gums about subjects that you know very little about don't you?

    Just to update this thread, the BBC programme Rip Off Britain has this week featured Cha Electronics and found that the website was run by a bunch of scammers possibly based in Florida. I say 'was' because the site no longer exists.

    The Daily Record also ran a story back in February about this 'fake electronics firm'.

    As for Money Saving Expert, they are still investigating this matter. They did allow Cha Electronics a right of reply on my original post but now the truth has been well and truly exposed, I don't suppose I'll receive an apology. Oh well. As long as MSE are making money out of Skimlinks that's the main thing. :money:
  • Hi Coopdivi

    We try as much as possible to keep all forum content live so as long as genuine forum content couldn't be considered libelous we keep it up.

    Thanks for the update, I'll flag your post up to the editorial team :)
