Just the other day, I bought a portable stereo (hitachi) in comet for £25. CD, tape, radio etc....crappiest waste of £25 ever.
I took it back and when they asked me what was wrong with it, I said 'It be easier to tell you what was right with it! It is crap!'.
It was without doubt the crappiest piece of crap that I ever bought.
In thier defence the 18 yr old assistant saw the funny side, refunded me, and had the guts to ask 'Is there anything else I can do for you?' (thats training for ya!) and I said 'yeah, take all of these in the whole company and put them in a crusher and don't embarass yerselves by selling them again' Laughing

Come ask me tech questions I generally answer them all, but then I have worked for an independent dealer for nearly 8 years now!

PC's are really easy to fix yourself, lots of stuff out on the net you to help you.

They arnt all like that - the guys themselves are OK, just the charges and company. Brother tells me stories of the fools he has to deal with too (not everyone, but some of them) - wonder why they are allowed to buy computers at all for some of them.

Few years ago I bought a top of the range laptop for £2000 thinking I would need it for Uni.

Ended up never using it and giving it to my mum...

I bought a Playstaion 2 a few years ago. I tried playing GTA San Andreas. I couldn't make the guy cycle for the first few days. Gave up in the end and just stole lorries and drove them into bridges.

I don't play games on it now. So it is just the noisiest DVD player in the world.

What a load of crap.
