So here's my story;

I saw the bargain advertised (well, half-) on the list and I think "I
wonder
what that does?", "I wonder whether they have any in
Cheltenham?"...

A couple of days later I happen to be driving past the Cheltenham PCW store
and decide to pop in (thinking 'there'll be none left'). Couldn't even
remember what they were called so had to ask. Found about 7 on the shelf,
marked up at 79.99 (£20 off!).  Hmmm, I think, The List has never let me
down yet (I bought a RotoZip from B&Q way back, and I'm all tivo'd up
{with
cachecard and WAP} due to you guys...). So I took one to the checkout for a
price check. Sure enough it was £19.99 so I walked away with it. I guess it
took me about an hour to think  "they aren't going to last long, and I
know
some people who are after some". So I went back. Word had obviously
got
round, and there were only three left - so I took them all...

So - I'm selling the three extra Hauppauge MediaMVP I bought, but I'm
hoping
to make up some of the cost of the one I bought on impulse (I don't have a
24/7 windows machine, so am frantically searching the forums for other
options).

Cost: £25 each plus Royal Mail postage. One per caller...

Email me at thejoysonline (don't forget the dot com)

Thanks

Ady

PS - I thought long and hard before marking up the price - I don't see this
list as just an opportunity to make money. I'd therefore be interested if
anyone thinks what I'm doing is unreasonable... (forgive my naivety - I
treat this stuff as a hobby (I've a bit of X10, a Powermax and a Pronto)
and
I see the list as a community. I really don't want to piss anyone off.)

Woopie !

I did email complaining to customer services, I wonder if that prompted
them
to get some online !

Just order 2 from the 15 left in stock if you are worried about ordering it
online, you can call the freephone number below

0800 0565732


They also check stock

"I'm sorry there are none in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, London
......."

Asside from me driving to scotland I ordered 2 anyway... same delivery cost
