Title: Still need an mid....
Post by: 51M0N on 21 September 2011, 18:19:25
Old style twin plug, Bought one off a member on here a month or so ago and it didn't work. They dont want to seem to give me a refund either. But I still need one.

I used PayPal but it was a "gift" to avoid fees.
And I might just do that.
Thanks guys.

Sending money as a gift does still work but it means the sender gets the fees not the receiver ;)

...........and that`s why the sellers on here are pretty reasonable with their prices as long as the "gift" option is used. :y Been stung quite a few times on here with PP fees >:(

Takes about 3 working days but by the time you've transferred Paypal to your account that takes about the same time so swings and roundabouts ;)
