RE: CD price comparison site?

In the past I`ve used all three of these, but more often than not I use dvdsource.co.uk as they have always come up with the goods, although they can sometimes be a day or two slower than play.

RE: Ebay Ripped Off by another Loser Seller

If I buy of ebay (and that is rare) I seldom buy from anyone with less than 99% feedback, as I work on the basis that no matter how good you are there is always someone who will not be satisfied.

This works most of the time and the only time i`ve been caught was with someone with feedback inthe high eighties who was selling something that I had been looking out for never arrived and cost me thirty quid.

Not too costly a lesson thankfully

RE: Online Retailer

I`ve used DVD`s on the Web a couple of times and been more than happy products arrive in good time well packed and have got them at a good price, would have no qualms to use them again if the price is right

Delivery time 2 -4 days in my experiance

RE: DVD Pacific no longer customs friendly

Have never used these before, I tend to stick with the CI based companies as they seem to include any VAT payable in their price and they always arrive without any problems.

Maybe this is down to pure luck!

However my luck did run out with splash as I had three orders that had been charged for prior to them stopping trading, so have had to wave goodbye to £40, have tried Blah but was not that impressed with the service.

The main reason for using thes sites are like most price as we all want the best on offer

RE: What are www.buyit247.co.uk like?

In response to BoB B, yes I may have only been a member for I hour at the time of your reply but then if you would care to have a look at all the members who have listed comments on this board it would seem that the vast majority of them have been members for just over a week ( In fact ten of them made their first postings between 3/3/04 and 12/3/04 )and have most have only posted comments on this thread and they all seem to be patting each other on the back.

Does this mean that you do not take their opinions seriously either or is just it a case that as long as they agree with you then they must okay but if they dare to share an alternative opinion ??????

RE: What are www.buyit247.co.uk like?

I most certainly did not intend to cause offence or appear to be so " bloody cocky!!!! " ( as you put it ) but was giving my thoughts on what I had been reading and my experiance with the service that I had from them. Maybe I have been rarher lucky,

I would be most concerned if I was in the situation that gartmeister now finds himself in, but the comforting factor`s are ( If there are any ) the e-mail from the Jersey trading standards and that if they do intend being back as they say it would be in their best interest to ensure all existing customers either get their goods or a refund.

RE: What are www.buyit247.co.uk like?

Wrong it is now two posts.

And wrong on your assumption, just a satisfied customer who is also feeling rather lucky having chosen to order my goods from this new company rather than Splash.

Oh and I believe in speaking as you find.

RE: What are www.buyit247.co.uk like?

Just cannot see what some of you guys are posting for. I ordered and received my goods in an acceptable time and price.

it would seem that some of the info that is getting posted on this site might well be getting placed by parties who might just wish to see this site not take off, as they do seem most well informed.

Could it just be that they are linked to some of the companies who are likely to be in competition with this site and if so it would be easy to slag them off.

As far as I am concerned I would not hesitate to buy from them again as long as the price was right.
