If ever it looks like I'm upset or getting personal I can assure you I'm not.
When I use the word you, I should really be using the word we. I don't mean it personal.
Even on the subject of the Pebble watch which has been running in modern digital's.
Only AlmightyTallest bit when I poked at several members who stated that they didn't want
another thing that needed charging up.
Very rarely will I make it personal and normally only when stating a fact, not my opinion.
Or just poking a bit of fun.

Just don't let him under your skin. After all it's the unknown that's the most frightening.

Hey talking of unknowns.. Does he have any goo...... No no no we're not going there. POKE. ~:( M:)W:)M

Any way I'm off to play some poker and listen to my tunes controlled on my watch/gadget. :bye:

Very good :-) No she handed over half to me straight away.
We don't have mine and yours where money is concerned. When we want something we get it
within reason, we only discuss expensive items. As we are both sensible and keep each other informed.
Any way she knows she would be on to a looser if we kept our own winnings as my largest
so far was in the sky UK final at Dusk till dawn in your town, £6'000. :grin1:

I can guess who sold you your first watch in your avatar.... Nipper, as its in the wrong box M:)W:)M


I've often wondered about that as, if this is the wrong box why have all my others all come in the same similar type.
Did Nipper buy a job lot M:)W:)M

Can anyone shed any light on the subject of N6, N7 computron box's?
I know the writing is slightly different but what about this one?

Wasn't going to say anything. Didn't actually rip it, was just saying now I am better informed,
I am less likely to purchase anything from you, and as you are the one who brought it up.
First time I changed the batteries one of the bottom contacts fell out.
No biggie but now I am better informed because now I've done my homework, thanks to
this place and other forums I have been able to form my own/better informed opinion.
That's one of the reasons I don't agree with banning you.
As I have said in the past if you don't do your homework expect to get at least a little burned.
I reiterate that now I check a watch thoroughly before I give any feedback.

This next bit is meant as kind advise there is no need to get upset....
How about being a little less defensive and a little more polite to a previous customer?
Something more along the lines of sorry your not happy with your purchase. If you could let
me know exactly what the problem is I would be more than happy to discuss any concerns
you have, your happiness is my first and main priority. I want you to be confident in me
so you keep coming back.
I'm not saying you don't have happy customers. I'm saying you can never have to many. :Prost:

Ps diverent is spelt with an F not a V but I'm sure you know that. ;-)

Oh well some fall on stony ground. :roll:
Why are you so defensive? I've never been nasty to you.
Most will feel upset by your aggressive attitude and bite back,
giving you chance to justify your stance later on, by getting
into some kind of slanging match. I won't so if you want to
discuss this openly and calmly? I will.

On the other hand if you just want to shout and stamp your
feet in some kind of strop you can. I'm sure there are more
than a few on here that would enjoy it.
Me? After the initial hint of fun I end up sad and disappointed
in a similar way as I do watching my grand kids squabbling.
Or when they feel their not getting what they deserve.

I may have poked a bit of fun but I do that with everyone,
you haven't been singled out, it's not personal.

I never said that it was the wrong box. In fact I asked for
others input to confirm that it was the right box. As I thought.
Seriously try chilling a bit. I don't see you as the enemy.
If that's how you see me, I can't change that without your help. :Prost:

I refer my learned friend to the comment I made earlier.

Also I am going to Pm you a copy of a thread I started that was removed
by the :police: ..I posted it to prove that you weren't alone in listing on
ebay saying that the boxes are for display only.

Hopefully you won't see me as the enemy. :-)
I have my fingers crossed.
Pete

EVERY BODY SING
"It's not what you do it's the way that you do it"

If the comments don't stand up don't get sick about it . If they do, then maybe you should try to sort it.
Pm me first if you want and I'll give you my honest opinion. Just put the pissed off, aggressive stance
aside where it belongs. If your right your right. If your wrong you can always change it. Your not backing
down in any way. Just making things better for everyone. Especially yourself.
Then thank the person responsible for pointing it out, they're more likely to help you again.
No matter how much of an idiot they've been in the past.

Two heads are better than one. Even if one's a donkey's. (one of my mothers favourites)
We all need help that's what it's all about.

It's never to late to change. Or use your spell check ;-) ;-) Don't take it personally it's just my nature.
Being the youngest of 7 I had the piss took out of me till I was bone dry.
One of my brother's motto's was "Give it them till they can take it."
Shouting, banging and crashing about it just gave them what they wanted. It was me that ended up looking a dick. :Prost:

On the subject of wrong boxes I think you may be mistaken Mr frequency.
Unless you can show me that the different colours around the lettering can
show that it's a LCD box??

Thanks Mick, shame I don't have your camera set up to do them justice.

What like your red top, the two toned, flat top smooth and brushed then there's the more common with 4 lines going front to back. Sigh
What's that love....... Bed? Yeah just coming. Shhhhh don't mention the computrons.
I mentioned them once but I think I got away with it. ~:(
