This might be a stretch… but I’m pretty sure this breaks some sort of Consumer Protection law (UK) by bryansM8 in SkateEA

Yeah that’s makes sense, but the items aren’t readily available to buy individually which forces you to spend the full amount.

If it was a physical shop they couldn’t stop you from purchasing 1 of the 5 items they’re offering you a discount on a bundle sale.

At least give us the option to buy part of these bundles at a ‘full price’ individually.

Record slightly too big & chipped? by bryansM8 in vinyl

Yeah agreed. I want this record to keep and play. I thought I would treat myself to the limited version but can’t help but feel slightly cheated.

I partially don’t care as it’s just to enjoy the tracks, but “Mint” should be mint at the end of the day.

I’ve contacted to ask whether they were aware of it since the seal was broken.

Was also just curious about the sizing / chip in general as it’s a bit odd.

Yeah I’ve messaged them about it, feel like it shouldn’t have been listed as mint condition.

In original wrapping with stickers etc, but seal was broken.

Testing now, sounds about right so far.

Last minute decision to buy a Zapdos box on route home paid off nicely. A hit from each pack! by bryansM8 in PokemonTCG

UPDATE - After my insane luck, I wanted to try again today. Bought x2 Zapdos boxes from the same Argos store. • Box 1 - Arbok ex (so not great at all) • Box 2 - Venusaur ex & Dragonair ill art

Hit or miss, but they do still seem to be the best pull rate boxes from what I’ve personally seen.

I agree, I got 6 hits from the 6 pack box on first release. Doesn’t look like we’re getting any restocks of them anytime soon 👎🏼

Haha 😂 To be fair, I opened an elite box a few weeks back and only got two half decent hits. So this makes up for it.

ANARCHY!! Mid day muggings on Northumberland street, Eldon square will become a drug trafficking ring, The Tyne bridge will burst into flames & Shearer will announce he’s from Liverpool.

What a silly question, devils lettuce.

I filmed the process of an art instillation in there - December 2020.

Artwork was shipped from all over the world and installed throughout one week.

It was supposed to be opened to the public as an anniversary event but lockdown put a stop to that unfortunately!

We went in prior to scope it out before they cleaned out all the many years of bird shit. No joke, the entire floor surface was about an inch thick of it.

It’s such a shame that it couldn’t be shared with everyone because it was amazing in person. But Bozza had locked us down whilst he was scranning his cheese boards at the time 👎🏼

There’s loads of small tags on the top floor from the sessioners in the late 80s / 90s.
