What an odd thread that is. To rather paraphrase it for people who cannot use anything other than 'wayback' (Do you have fucking shares in Wayback or something KeemaMethi?)

'Caliver is a Crook'
'Well I think they are great'
'Well I think he eats babies'
'Well I too think he is great'
'He fucked my wife and wiped his cock on the curtains'
'never anything but great service'
'Well, he took my disabled daughter out on a date, shagged her up the arse then left her hanging over the garden gate to save pushing her up the drive'
'Best Company going'

The post about "I asked how much the best price was on a set of books marked £20.00 so they rang Dave and he said '£19.50!'" made me smile. If I was in retail and people kept saying 'What's your best Price?' all day I would respond "The one that means I don't have to wipe my arse on newspaper and live on Safeway Saver Baked Beans, now fuck off"

That's the way a lot of threads in Consumer Affairs go.

Disgruntled customer "I sent an order for $27,548 to Knobhead Miniatures. They took the money, and I haven't received a fucking thing"

Happy Customer "I've always had fantastic service from Knobhead. Malcolm is a great guy!"

HC 2 "I too (why do they always fucking write "I too"?) have had great service from Knobhead.

DC 2 "Well I think Malcolm's a crook. He's had $602,729.34 off me for 10 Supernal Krushers, 17 Naked Amazons with Big Tits and a packet of glim, and I've received nothing"

repeat to fade

It's another forum designed to whip up frothing partisan frenzy and improve Obtusetrout's hit rate. Obvious innit?

Dave at Caliver is a top bloke and Bill Armintrout is a massive vagina.

Traumatized customer "I secretly paid Francis Dormandy a large sum of money for exclusive access to the "Blue Oyster Skype Lounge" on the understanding I'd get to see a bunch of rampant members parading themselves for my enjoyment. Imagine my horror when I was faced with a massive bloated cunt leering at me on the screen!

Happy sock puppet "Bill's house, Bill's questionable genitalia!"

Confused Editor "I join happy chicken place, give uncle Monty your fucking money!

Same old stuff

My favourite quote about Dodgy Dave is "an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, dressed as a cunt"

Caliver sent me a shoddy copy of Neil Danskin's The French Army in the Thirty Years' War back in 2003: misaligned pages, bleeding text and etc. and during a phone call, admitted they'd received a bad batch, but charged £5.00+ and shipping. Since it's not a professionally bound title, I asked that they mail me replacements for the defective pages and I'll assemble it at my own expense, but all I got were excuses. A few years later, someone on TMP mentioned receiving a copy assembled upside down.

"Stick a load of random old tat that I can't shift otherwise into a box. Yeah, the punters will go wild for it"

Cheeky use of the expression 'fuck you buckaroo' by bsrlee about half way down, made me smile.

What a bunch of fucking rejects everyone here is sitting around and pissing on everyone they can.

JJCH, Fuck YOU buckaroo, have a look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukubukuro

And everyone likes to laugh at the ignorant Americans...

Irony meter broken again over on TMP I see.
