I love the line..."IT IS NOT MY INTENTION TO PROFIT ON POSTAGE."

And I should think not!

The case is a bit tatty and I don't know if the speaker works....

But what the hell do you want for £850 (IT IS NOT MY INTENTION TO PROFIT ON POSTAGE.)

He should pay someone the £850 to take it off his hands!!!!!!!!!

I don't know whether to [Big Grin]

the weird thing is NOTHING else they are selling is even remotely in that sort of price range, why did they think this was the goldmine?

On reflection, I reckon it's a typing error. It should be £8.50!! He just missed the decimal point! [Big Grin]

I think you're right David, but....

"IT IS NOT MY INTENTION TO PROFIT ON POSTAGE."

Check the Overseas postage figure
