What are regulations for Easter trading? [OT] by
Andy
ISTR that Xmas and Easter were the two days when large shops had to
close. Is this true?
However Tesco says it will open between 6 am and midnight on Easter.
Is this a typo? Must be? http://tinyurl.com/f9zb7
M&S is normally open on a Sunday but will be closed on Easter...

Are Dabs in breach of contract? by
TooFatToSurf
I ordered a Sony Vaio S1XP from the dabs.com website on 1st September.
It was described as used, and with all the bits. It was about £250 cheaper
than a new one.
On 8th September, I received an invoice by e-mail. They also debited my
credit card.
Next day, I get an e-mail saying that they are...

CityLink Not Delivering by
mrjolly
I bought some bits from Ebuyer, and I paid for their 'Standard Delivery'
which apparently takes about a week to deliver.
I was told that the delivery was today, so stayed in *all* day. I did not go
out once.
At about 5pm, I received an email from Ebuyer informing me that I had...

Fishman
Did you know that it is illegal for a dealer to supply a TV card and not
record the buyers name and address and then pass this information on to the
TV Licencing authority within 28 days?
Similiar applies if as a dealer, you sell a PC with a TV card installed -
new or secondhand.

It's been almost a month now since I sent back my Shuttle. I don't want
anything fancy - no refunds, no alternative products, just another model,
exactly the same, to replace the one thats been faulty since arrival.
Clearly this is too much for them.

Never buy from PC World by

I thought I should warn about the total lack of respect for customers'

them a few weeks ago, and it worked fine at first, so I didn't bother
keeping the receipt. However, earlier today, it stopped working, so...

Are Computer Fairs all crap? by
Alec
For the first time in 10 years I've gone to a computer fair at a local
hotel. Had to pay £2.50 just to get in. I was pretty underwhelmed by what I
saw.
Stalls selling copied software (illegal surely?), secondhand parts wrenched
from old PCs and Macs, under-spec PCs with flashing coloured lights...
