Amazon Marketplace offering dangerous goods 11:08am on 09 Dec 2008 I bought an XP disc from a market place seller, and it was a fake counterfeit, quite obviously, compared to the real thing. (Visually and it would not load).

The seller sent me 2 more fake copies, one with the label peeling off.

I informed Amazon in no uncertain terms that I had been sold conterfeit goods.

All they said was to contact the seller, and resolve with him. (Reply received this morning).

This seems totally at odds with their senior spokesman on last night, regarding counterfeits.
End of Thatcher's tax incentives 6:00pm on 24 Nov 2008 Nothing like leaving a legacy for the country and next Government.

Private Finance Initiative skeletons and now this....

Tactical 'Sergeant' voting could ensure Mr B and Mr D reap what they have sown.
Humbling of our banks 6:34pm on 12 Oct 2008 A couple of very salient points to mention regarding the whole situation:

1. The value of Pi, or the Peston Index varies in inverse proportion to the value of the

FTSE 100. Take September 22nd, blog on Gordon Brown, 111 comments on the Blog, to Sunday 12th

October, All Change at RBS, 204 comments, an almost doubling, compared with getting on for 50%

drop in the FTSE, well after Monday maybe.

2. The new GOvernment NAtionalised Derivative Swaps give new meaning to the phrase

"They've got us by the G***ds.
Interbank hysteria 4:46pm on 24 Sep 2008 At least the owl and the pussycat will survive after their time at sea.
The creation of Lloyds HBOS 6:31pm on 17 Sep 2008 If it means not having to put up with those dreadful Halifax adverts any more, then this makes the whole credit crunch worth the suffering..
