I wish you’d stop holding back, Ken.

KeymasterYeah, I really should speak my mind I suppose.
The bad word filters are really a drag at times. 😉

I really, REALLY despise these f******g do-gooders that just take the p1ss out of retailers. Worse, they tar us all with the same brush.
If they’d only bl00dy well research what they were buying they might actually see that they’re being fleeced.
But that does not excuse the response whereby you crucify the retailer or manufacturer for giving you what you asked for. If you want cheap, they’ll do cheap but, it comes at a price.
They just don’t get it.

I think a considered site statement is required in this thread:
http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/modules.p … 0&start=15I’m probably not the person to do it……..

And a suitable reply was brought forth, then posted for better or worse.
They really just don’t get it do they?

Well, that got rather unpleasant. There is now a post-it note above my computer screen with some names on it. Can’t use “Ignore” if you’re a Moderator…..
I am disappointed that so many of our colleagues still have their heads implanted so far up their rectal passages that the only daylight they see is through their nostrils.
Might I also point out that the row started after Martins’ cunning deceit of posting the Youtube link rather than the shop@ one. The house troll is now probably hugging himself with glee at the ensuing row – and – his usual concilliatory/sarky statment when he’s seen which way the wind is blowing.
Sorry, I’ve had it up to here with him.

I just wish he’d give me a reason to ban him.
But you can see that he got very annoyed with the last post he’s made. He doesn’t like it up ‘im as they used to say.
But David came up with a topper tonight, we should ask them if they change their own brake pads and oil so we can alert the mechanic police and, while we’re about it I added, we should also lever Haynes to shut up shop too.
Or perhaps get B&Q shut down so we all have to call tradespeople.
The notion is just utterly ludicrous in the extreme.

KeymasterRe: In search of the fourth cord
Ooops… again! 😆
Like I said, they just don’t get it at times.
It is perfectly clear that many see their own little corner of the world and just don’t understand that there is any life beyond that boundary. They also just do not understand the nature of the internet in any way, shape or form.
In many ways that’s a good thing because a lot of retailers and manufacturers also don’t understand it either. But, if applied correctly, that offers a huge advantage to press home.
Just as it is obviously totally not understood the point of what you were doing Chris.
They also don’t understand that the spod that gets help today is tomorrow’s customer.
It’s quite sad really that many people are so short sighted.

Ah well, today’s a new day. 😀 Not many things get my goat, I’m afraid this one rather did.

Told you I had a sticky…… Could do a shakey video of it if you prefer….?

You have missed Martin’s name off the list. 😆

KeymasterI doubt there was a need for a reminder on that one. 😉
