A bargain for someone!!!

Postby Phil.c » Sun Nov 13, 2016 7:36 pm

I saw a mint d8b on ebay a couple of days ago, it had two days to go and the bid was £140...I thought. ok, the bids are going to come in at the end of the auction...it sold for £180!!!

It still needs a CPU, but the parts alone :o

Hi Phil

I just seen a d8b and CPU with 5.1 in good working shape. I bided on it I had to work
When I came home I looked and it went for $202.50 to the highest bidder. That was a deal
And it had a console desk with the wow factor. That came with it. I never can get them good deals

hi phil,
yea seen that, tempted but t was pickup only so would of had to travel from Liverpool to london to pick it up....
and i hate london....
with my older van now going into london or anywhere inside the M25 there is now the robbing low emmission charge
of £100 for my van (and up to 500 for others), even if you pop in for 10 mins, in fact its rolling from 12 midnight so if you went in at 11:55 picked the desk up and come out at 12:05 thats £200 !!
(ROBBERS....i would rather stick pins in my eyes than give them a penny,,, rant over :-) )

That's appalling! How do they collect it?

surrounding greater London is the M25, basicly if you come off that a camera snaps your registration plate number then you get a bill through the post, all sewn up nice and quick, so if you take a wrong turn of the M25, "thats your own fault" you can contest that, but what a pain in the ass,
i think it was the first one in the world, thanks to that idiot Boris Johnson,
and it gets worse, this is not including the congestion charge you also have to pay when you get into london,
yep !"!!
i try and stay away from london,
anyway rant over but check it out if you want here...

i was bidding on one on ebay but the guy kept taking it off in fear of it going too cheap then relisting it, so anoying. but yea you do get some good deals on fleabay, i picked a hdr24 for £90 with error on it, changed the batt and reset the bios and it was like new, great, strangly tho i cant type track titles into the track boxes on 3 of the tracks 20, 21,22 ( where they have drums vocals keys etc) the boxes are just blank when i click in them i dont even get a cursor in the box, any ideas ?
