So not content with charging me £49 a year for their free Prime delivery, Amazon have now decided I must subscribe to their utter shite "LoveFilm" service as well and will stuff it up to £79 a year

Or more like £0 a year as we'll unsubscribe.

beginning of the end for Amazon?

I may have to retract this ^

Not only todays TG news but I now have found I get free unlimited photo storage I can dial up anywhere and the bundled in Amazon music service is really very good too

Can't get it here without a proxy server...  rubschin:
Ah

So guess what you'll be looking into again
Well, whatever, nevermind

Bastards!  cussing:

In a few moments between gardening I thought I would review a couple of the products wot I had bought recently...

Quote from: Barman
Great mic - quality control could be improved...
 
Arrived quickly and was well packaged.

Initially didn't work with my camera (Panasonic DMC-FZ300) and had been shipped without the foam windscreen (actually, I can't see a space in the box for the foam windscreen).

I contacted technical support who responded very quickly but couldn't explain why the mic would not work or if anybody else had got it to work with my camera. I asked them if I could investigate for a while, possibly re-wire the connector and return it if I couldn't get it working which they agreed to.

When I opened up the connector to re-wire it I discovered that a teeny-tiny bit of screening from the signal cable was shorting the connector. I removed this and the mic worked perfectly!

The foam screen was shipped from their US warehouse and arrived a week or so later.

Reasonable under the circumstances i thought and I gave them 4 stars...

Amazon reply...

Just give it one star and said it didn't work. That would be permissable under the guidelines.  Accurate with your experience and without malice.

I'm sure the supplier would much rather this type of review  noooo:

What a bunch of hypocritical Amazonian cnuts.   These are the fuckwits that allowed all these one star reviews by people that never even bought the product

https://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/7178681896/ref=cm_cr_dp_hist_one?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=one_star&showViewpoints=0

Example:  "I don't care if the Hairdryer climbsTrees and gives Milk, the cost of this item is all about "I have a Dyson Hairdryer" I can hear them now!! I wish someone from Dyson could explain the price? I think I would rather shave my Wife,s head and buy her a Syrup ,crazy"

And I reported them all to Amazon and did they remove any?   noooo:

Well, whatever, nevermind

Dear Amazon,

If you are going to use external sites to advertise that long awaited shows are now available free on prime please remember to INCLUDE WHETHER OR NOT IT'S ONLY AVAILABLE TO AMERICAN CUSTOMERS!!!

Would it have been so hard to add in a message saying that it wasn't available to watch in the UK?  Banghead

Was looking forward to going through the first 2 seasons of the Expanse as I'm now off until the weekend but nooooooooooo, there isn't a single mention about it being region locked until you click the sodding play icon.  cussing:
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.
