I am here to talk about how shopping sites on the internet discriminate the uk's islands. Such as Isle of Wight Northern Island.

Those island dont get the special hardware offers on this site and countless others.

On some website's they dont even ship anything to places other than the uk mainland.

I can understand them trying to cut costs to a minium but does that cost-cutting system in the cutthroat business of e-commerse spread so far as to cut potential customers put of the incomes.

Dont get me wrong I am from the mainland uk but I am guessing channel island web shoppers have half as much choice as the rest of us.

Just to clear the record the topic is about the whole of e-commerse not just Special Reserve


Thank you for your time and patience in reading this,I feel important topic

Cheers

As i said before (if you had bothered to read) i dont wanna change my name. I want to be honest, and earn my place back. Dont care how long it takes.

I have apologised, and learnt my lesson. Hopefully the wounds caused by my stupidity shall heal in time, and everything will be ok.

Is that about half way up some busy street with the clothes shop at the begining of the arcade and the rip off cafe at the end with the games shop just before it? If it I went in there, small and dark no?

Oh and yeah I was one of those who plagued your streets a few years ago :-P

O M G.

Someone on my side. Sweet mary.

Thanks for not being angry at me sibs, but if you knew the story you would be angry at me.

ya see i said stuff about ireland. Damn stupid stuff. this is because the topic can be vaguely connected to the emerald isle, and i have had a bad experience with the ira (I thought my bro had died in the manchester bomb. Worst day of my life, until i knew he was ok)

I am sorry. I was an idiot. Lets all just forget.

ARGH! you are one of those EVIL tourists that invade our car parks, shops, beaches, etc. in the Summers!!!

Are you local???

PS CB games is inside the Arcade in Union street. The arcade (not the videogame arcade) is about half way up, and has a load of tiny shops, clothes shops, a book shop, a musical instrument shop, CB games and some other tiny shops that sell junk. Oh and a Cafe.

Tiltawhirl, since you are reading everything here have you read my story cos if you haven't just thought I'd tell you that you're in it.

PS I don;t know what Edwin said, but he obviously does have strong feelings about violence, just look at his Nintendo- Evil topic.

PS why are all his comments here banned? Surely we should be able to see what he wrote to judge ourselves whether we think he should have been banned.

Oh and Edwin, maybe you should write a letter...

I am really sorry... If you want me to leave I will...

:-)

(trying to be a peacemaker here...)

I was making a joke, about how your about as forgiving as a rather steep cliff someone just jumped off.

Look, i dont care about making myself look stupid. I just dont want to have a bad rep for one topic when i let my emotions about the past get me. Sorry.
