Bags of Crap for sale

[Kryten]

Was about to post this in my Techie forum thread for hot buys, but thought there might be something for everyone.

BigPockets.co.uk are flogging a "Bag o' Crap" - for 3 quid (plus about 6 quid postage unless you buy something else too, they're cheap for blank media & mem cards) - due to a stock clearance/attention grabbing stunt they are shoving 3/4 random items in a bag and sending them out.

Items so far on their reviews have included MP3 players (basic ones natch), up to 2gb memory cards of varying types, scart cables and adapters, scorpion ice lollies (!) and lots of other very random stuff. Certainly mostly worth more than 3 quid.

Just thought I might let folks know, it's limited 1 per person, and just bought my Bag o Crap with a cake box of DVD-DL discs. Could be interesting

[Mabs]

cos the lottery, you get some cash, or a bit of paper. with this you may not want or need what you get, but your guaranteed -something-

its about 6 quid postage, but you can buy cd wallets, blank cds etc, aswell and get free postage, and you can never have enough blanks cds.. *cough*

just realised theyve sent the wrong fucking charging unit!

the juke box takes 5vDC according to whats printed on it, and theyve sent a 5v AC adaptor!

I bet your well pissed off, getting a Jukebox for £2 odd and it having the wrong charger

i am because i cant charge it up to use it, and it doesnt seem to charge through usb.

what a load of shit.

 

[Sparx]

get looking

500GB Seagate FreeAgent Hard Drive - Maplin

 

[tris-]

on further investigations, the model number of the charger is what is needed for the device.

so the player its self is fucked :/

 

[Insane]

where the hell are you ?

*points to Location, underneath his avatar*

Was going to pick up the box of 600 blank CD-R's for work, only to discover the delivery is more than the box itself

 

[Raven]

Winner!

Stack of about 50 blank DVDs
Digital TV tuner for my laptop (works on Desktop ofc too) with a nifty little remote control
Various in car lighter power leads

 

[Chilly]

raven has been nominated to get 20 other idiots to buy the swagbag, go go go sell it to some gamblers.

 

[Kryten]

Chilly, hardly a "retards" game. It says quite clearly what they're doing and what you're going to get.

Personally, along with my order of 25 DL DVD,s I've received:

CD Wallet x 2
Thompson Foldable Headphones
Cakebox of 100 DVD-R discs, printable.

Very, very useful indeed and more than worth 3 quid.
Certainly a better return than the lottery

And RE the MP4 player (Archos) - if you can't get it to work, I'll have it - failing that, ebay it. They're easily fixable, usually via a hard firmware update
