If you mooch about on the Special Reserve and Freeola sites you'll find little problems or annoyances. e.g. why can't I do this, I can't understand that or couldn't we do the other.

So we would like your comments in this BUG TEST. An extra prize will go to the person who contributes the most to improving this site with little tweaks or solutions.

LITTLE TWEAKS are the operative words. You will not win anything for suggesting that we spend £35 billion on a re-design.

You must post your comments under this topic (or the similar one on the Playstation 2 forum) to stand a chance of winning.

Good luck


The Winner will be decided on Christmas Eve

Since the prices for internet advertising are tumbling we may well do that.

We'll only advertise where it is cost effective to do so.

Remember, we are the most successful independent seller of computer and video games in the UK. Our web sites are probably the only web sites in the UK which are not actually losing money!

We've been going longer and we sell more stuff on the internet than any of the others.

Advertising in the national papers - the daily mail/the sun anything!

Adveritsing in mags is a good thing but isn't quite good enough.

a radio show then,
A radio advertisement.
Leflets through every door in the UK.
Expansion to Europe and beyond to spread the risks you face if a recession were to take place,
Perhaps ADVERTISE once on TV!!!
Change the company name completely 'special reserve' it seems so distant and in the future! If you reserve something you haven't had it yet. So maybe, something else.

They are both good companies, they advertise on TV, even and Sky is involved with GameStreet! Maybe you could advertise through other websites.

You should know the solution:
Why do you have 8 links for the PC items?
JUST HAVE 1!
Why have every games console have their own link, half of them aren't even available (GameCube,Ps2, Xbox,Neogeo,)

So JUST HAVE 1 entitled Consoles!
That way all the news (which isn't much news) could be on one page, thus saving space.

Good idea maybe a personilized page for your details when you post a message. On your page you could have Nintendo round the edge of your page! And when you post in you can have Mario's underneath saying 'it's a me Mario!' at the end of your post.

You should prmote yourselves, places like Gameplay and Gamesstreet advertise everywhere, but it seems as though SR's prices have actually become the most reasonable which is a credit to yourselves.

Perhaps start a new TV show, and all the regulars could be on it! We'd be famous!!!!
