Just expand the column instead of making everything double you cunts Aah, that data I've been waiting for. I'll just do a pivot table... oh wait, no, first I'll have to spend 10 minutes unpicking your retarded formatting. And now there's #ref!'s everywhere, why's that? Oh I see, it's all linked back to a file saved on your desktop; great stuff!

Bobby Deluxe posted:seconding ebuyer, dabs.com are also cheap but i dont know if theyre still good Years and years ago I ordered a laptop from dabs to be delivered to my flat in London. I waited in from 8-5 for it to be delivered and it never arrived; dabs didn't have any phone lines for customer service and my emails went unanswered so I managed to get hold of the delivery company. They had instead tried to deliver it to my mums house (my card billing address), which was several hours away from London. HOWEVER they also hosed up and delivered it to some dude in the next town while delivering his order. The only reason I got my laptop was by looking up this guy's address in the phone book (the courier would only give me his name), and driving to his house to pick it up. It was an absolute farce and I've written a lot of words so in summary gently caress dabs.com and lovely private couriers.

ebuyer have always had god awful customer service, they might've improved since then, but I haven't used them in a while. I bought a new retail CPU from Aria a few years ago that had been carefully removed from the packaging so as not to break any seals, and had been used before. Turns out they were cherry-picking good overclockers for premium sales and then selling the crappy ones full-price as-new. A friend ended up working there, and apparently this kind of thing and worse went on all the time and the company was shady as gently caress. Overclockers were bought out a couple of years back, I heard that they improved a lot, although their prices still aren't great and the amount of choice has got a lot worse. Never heard any racist accusations though? In the end, most places probably suck at customer service, maybe because the margins are so small. If I can, I buy parts from Amazon. I hate the company and their practices, but if you've got any problems their no-questions-asked customer service is so helpful, and they are usually competitive on price.

Overclockers used to be shady as gently caress, I don't think I ever had an order from them where most of the low end stuff was already burnt out. Every single time you called them to arrange a return and swap the low end stuff would mysteriously be out of stock but oddly enough they did have x item which was £50 more If you wanted to pay the extra.

I remember when we were trying to set up our first ADSL router at uni over ten years ago my computer geek housemate picked Dabs and Ebuyer as his top choices. I remember they all sucked even back then though (especially the housemate).

Yay. I woke up at 4am with a sudden urge to be violently sick all over the place. After a miserable clean up operation I went back to bed shivering. Woke up later with a fever, terrible throat, headaches and more phlegm than a garbage pale kid.

Labradoodles are frucking terrible around kids, because poodles hate kids and they got that part and some. Dull fact: Reason they exist originally wasn't so that posh kids would need stitches but because allergies and disabilities tend to go hand in hand and as they don't moult the labradoodle was bred for this purpose, until they realised that they would drag the blind people along the street so they could bite a kid. Edit: you can hire people to come to your house and check on and walk your pet for about £5 a visit.

learnincurve posted:Sort of, most council shelter dogs are put down because people don't know these small independent places exist and go to the well advertised RSPCA shelters instead. You get a nice usually well trained pedigree dog for gently caress all and the dog does not get killed because some cold hearted bastard would rather get a new puppy than pay to get the family pet back. Morally Inept was a goon who had sex with his dog
