  1. That's exactly it, there's a scale. And the way I see it, things like this sit right at the top of the out of order scale. They offer no benefit to the national community. Other seperate things you've raised need assessing on their own merits, but the topic at hand is this particular site and it's counterparts; there's only so much thread space to put the world to rights in
  2. P.s, are you not interested in buying a US supra over there?
  3. I mean, like an A4 or A6? Or is an Audi 1.8T an actual model?
  4. This is gambling. You need to be more specific. But my statement relates to anything that promotes an underhand way at getting money off you. edit to add: This sort of things says to the punter you could buy xx for cheaper than cheap, but that's not the case. It's gambling but behind smoke screens, it's this kind of deception I strongly disagree with.
  5. Some people need protecting from themselves. There are oodles of prohibitions in place already to do that in various other aspects of life. I don't agree with allowing people to be exploited just because they might not be as clued up as the average bear. Putting the onus on the punter not to get screwed is very backwards. The screwing enterprise should be removed in the first instance. The problem is it's legal, but that doesn't mean it's right.
  6. I think what he means is that the engine wouldn't be modified. I.E not talking off the twins and putting a single on. The single is already on that particular motor.
  7. Okays, what iz peeps opionions on what iz betta, 2 NOS bottlez or 1 NOZ bottle and a George Michealz?
  8. Things like this should be banned to protect joe blogs. It's basically using clever means to con stupid people out of their money. The person that owns that site must need shares in Horlix.
  9. lol. hourse of fun if you're bored!

    Potentially a bit mental as well! I can't complain though! I've considered travelling all over the UK to visit other RI stores to claim back my £67.50 from each of them with no reciept! The thing that I'm wondering about, is what would have had a scanned two packs. Would it come up as £5.00 or would it charge me the offer price of £6.50! umm.

    While we're doing stories..... I bought a leather (sheepskin collar) jacket from River Island before xmas - kind of like an old school flying jacket. It was £90. It had straps on the wrists that weren’t' attached that well. Over Christmas, one of them came off somewhere when I was out and about. It didn't bother me too much thought as it wasn’t obvious. I wasn’t going to do anything about it, but when I was sale shopping with the GF and queued up in River Island, I decided take the opportunity to raise it with the check out staff while I was already there. I didn’t have my receipt with me, so at best I was just hoping for an exchange. I explained to the chap behind the counter what had happened and he asked me if I had a receipt. I replied no and he said he will have a word with the manager. He popped off and came back a minute or two later. He said something to me which I initially thought I had misheard and it must have meant I would get 25% off the jacket. I asked him to clarify and I had heard first the right time, River Island had offered to give me back 75% of the cost of the Jacket and I get to keep it..... I couldn’t believe it, and I didn’t even have a receipt with me! He asked me if it was ok with me! “Umm, yeah, that sounds fine” I replied. So the next, thing he hands me back the jacket and pulls out £67.50 in cash from the till and hands that to me too. So, with no receipt, I work out with the Jacket I had already bought with a minor issue I wasn’t really bothered about and £67.50 in cash! They got some of that back though as I decided to treat myself to another ensemble from the shop!

    I remember something being on the news about making profit from your shopping - mental.

    Fanta Zero at £2.50 each or £6.50 for two.
  14. I'd certainly do it to ensure that the wheels are sat at their optimum.
  15. The more that go abroad the more 'special' they are over here

    I snapped this in Asda on Sunday. I decided to just buy one pack in the end!
  17. Thanks Chris, I'll take those points on board during the repair. I have the plastic bits ready to go as I thought they might be the issue, but the problem seems to be these pins. Big Thanks to The-Plethora and Hodge for their help with this. I'm very humbled This may not be as big a ball ache as I first imagined!
