From Amazon …

• Important Message – There is a slight problem with your order. (See below.)

  Oh, and what might that be? Not perchance the ‘slight problem’ of you not wanting to sell me the product?

• We’re sorry. This item can’t be shipped to your selected destination. You may either change the shipping address or delete the item from your order by changing its quantity to 0 and clicking the update button below. ( See geographical restrictions.)

  Ah yes, since you you put it so succinctly now I see. We’ll that’s just dandy. What kind of artifical DVD region bullshit is this. My money not good enough for you? You can’t rip me off enough by putting the item in the post? Global fucking economy? Not if you’re a multinational con artist corporation. You are behaving like spoilt children.

  The usual kind of lies you hear to excuse this kind of cartel like behaviour is “it is because the service and supports costs in your territory are higher, and you dear customer deserve and expect this high level …”. This however, flies in the face of the kind of service and support I have come to expect of multinational companies who fix prices, which is more akin to the level of service you get in a Moterway Burger King late at night on a Sunday when the two 16 staff are waiting to go home.

  You’ll get yours, and hopefully sooner rather than later. I hope your yachts sink and your girlfriends leave you pointing and laughing at your tiny knobs.
