Depends on what you mean by 'unsatisfactory' :D
But
seriously though, whether a bulk buy is for profit or not, the same issues
will
appiy - ie:
Will
the supplier deal with the end users, or just the man in the middle who
placed
the order, has been invoiced for the order, and has paid for the
order?
Whilst
Gareth said 1 or 2 weeks (i think) for DoA fujitsus back to him, then 60(?)
days
with PS, I don't know if PS could turn around around and refuse to deal
with you
on the basis that they sold to Gareth and not to you.
Okay,
so PS is a crap example, but you see what I mean - warranty etc issues are
independent of making a profit - don't confuse the two!

I do, however, except Tesco to replace AT THEIR EXPENSE, and WITHOUT

I was pleasantly surprised to see an apology as I assumed
it was a bit 'heat

Being a soon-to-be dad can be
very stressful indeed - just be glad it's not

Indeed. I spoke to Li about this because I pointed
him towards the european
distributors of the Audiotron, and here they
were trying to do a deal with
me. He seemed happy enough that I
wasn't trying to steal any (potential
future) business from
him.

I still think that profit or otherwise should be irrelevant
because people
will (as seems to have happened here) resent the fact
that
someone is making
money when someone else didn't.
A fair deal is
where
everyone benefits to some degree. You don't after all,
ask Tesco
how much they paid for their baby wipes when they are doing a two
for
one
deal - and you can always go to Sainsbury anyway if you're not
happy
with
Tesco.
I agree about the risk element. This is why for example
I said there is no
warranty with the US audiotrons, so there is risk
there of wasting your
money. Equally, I was taking the risk of
blowing up the device if I did a
conversion on
it.
