Off Topic / Which? Consumer Magazine - Best All in One Desk Top Computer

« on: 21 August, 2020, 06:44:32 PM »

Hello

I was wondering if anyone subscribes to the consumer Which? magazine.

If so would you be willing to share with me the information/article for their best all in one desk top computer as I can not afford the subscription as I have other bills, etc but i do respect their judgement.

If anyone can help I would much appreciate it.

Many thanks!

Sorry not an original answer but...I would love to have owned the one given away for a star letter(?) in the pages of Action. 

I think it was an image of a Spinball player?

Does anyone have one of these or the ability to reproduce it....

Ta!

Whoever decided that "out of print" = automatically worth a ton more than cover price, should be fed to pigs.

Apologies to all, sometimes I get a little confused.

I mentioned it on this thread, but without giving the scalper publicity.

Sorry, not so much outraged but shocked that somebody would ask so much.........

What a gobshite. I hope Nemesis jumps up out of his book, sticks his fist in his gob and spreads his fingers.

Who?  Me or Gandhi?

Also remember This Morning paying a visit to Stateside Comics and 'doing a piece' in the studio about how much some of the more desirable comics were worth.....

Was that the one downstairs in the Virgin Megastore on Oxford Street?  Unusual for a TV programme to visit a comic shop other than Forbidden Planet (FP still sell comics, before anyone piipes up).

It was the one in Barnet possibly East Barnet....

It was def Middle English.  The boy is reading a copy of Starlord issue dated 30th September 1978 the one with the monster on the front and he is accompanied by the owner of a comic shop possibly Skinny Melinks and he talks to the editor of 2000ad at that time and it was def early 1990's.

I must look for the tape as it has the transmission date on it.

have we got a video now? Lol

I have been Eddie Hitler for some time but not the real Eddie Hitler lol I love Bottom......well you know what I mean......lol

I'm sure I have asked about this before but does anybody remember the children's education programme Middle English which in the early part of the 1990's featured an episode about a boy visiting the offices of 2000ad to see how an edition of the prog was put together.

I have the transmission date written down on the side of one of my old VHS tapes but recorded it over when Batman was screened that Xmas.

Just wondered if anyone had a copy or knew where I could view this or even remember it?

Thank you

Thank s for Stront71.

I understand the pay-pal bit but I have been told that ebay also take a percentage of the postal fee you charge.

So does that mean 10% for the total amount the item sells for and the p+p or are they separate?

I hope that makes sense......again

Thank you

Hello

I must admit I am not very good at maths so can someone explain to me maybe and with an example if possible, when I use eBay how much they will charge me if I sell an item and the same for Pay Pal if I use them to receive the fee from the sale of that said item.

Hope that makes sense?

Thank you

Thank you Sherry...So if Robo-Keef is reading this....maybe?

To make matters worse though I have a copy of Martin Barker's Action book at home and if I remember rightly it reprints LOFL............though in my defence I have not opened it for quite some time so I can not remember if all of it is there.
