RE: Ebay and its second chances!!

At worst you`ll get a non-paying bidder strike. Three and you`re suspended I think. Sellers can no longer leave negatives. If you mutually withdraw, seller will get his fees back.

RE: One for marksparks or julianf - help please

So, the boy broke the law by holding a phone while driving. You`re trying to get him off on a technicality. I wonder what lesson he`ll learn from all of this.

RE: Infolithium batteries

Most batteries on ebay are fake and are lower powered than advertised. Be careful if you want to avoid fires at home.

Perhaps all the parent and child spaces were gone and someone needed room to remove their baby from its car seat.

RE: Big favour - DVD+/-R of Manchester United vs Roma

Get a soul and conscience letter from your GP

Don`t go. It sounds dreadful.

RE: stupidness .......greeeeeeeedy..........or both

A fool and his money are easily parted.

There`s a difference between percentage and proof.

RE: Is she my girlfriend?

If you continue to talk about her on the internet to people you`ve never met, she won`t be your girlfriend for much longer!

RE: E bay Muppet - Your opinion please

I suggest you have a look in the ebay community q&a forum

Try the ebay community, question and answers board. The people there are very helpful.

RE: Buying in USA and bringing into UK

My goodness, a copper breaking the law, who`d have thought :-)

RE: Buying in USA and bringing into UK

Just take the tags off, throw the box and manuals away, and pretend you didn`t buy it in America. Chances of being stopped and searched through customs are low. Or you could post it to yourself. Unless it`s really big.

RE: Having a Wedding List... Should we or shouldn`t we? Help please!

Have a list, but it`s good manners to let people know only if they ask, and don`t be offended if people still buy things not from the list.

If it`s a run-flat it can`t be repaired.

RE: Matsui DVD225 or the Cyberhome 400?

I`m used to cheap players as I just upgraded to the Matsui from an Alba 104.
The Matsui has much better pciture quality and plays DVD+R flawlessly, which was a problem with the Alba. Error correction is also much better. Control is OK if a little bulky.
It has Scart, S-Video and coax digital out.

It`s small and it`s only 70 quid.

What more do you need?
