Three things they did wrong:
- They made me create an account just to buy something. No, no, no, no, no...
- They made me create an account just to buy something, even though they offer the option to purchase via PayPal. No, no, no, no, no...
- They would only let me deliver to the billing address of the credit card used for purchase - this is for "security reasons" and is "in my interest". Really? Gee, thanks...
Epic fail Dabs. I wanted to give you my money, but you made the process so frustrating that I would rather go and trawl the Web looking for alternative sellers. That's a special talent, good on ya.
If anyone from Dabs actually ends up reading this (Hello!) I suggest having a read of this.

@George - surely that's even worse. ccity won't even show you the price until you log in. It might be a good price, but I'll never know due to the issues raised in this post.
@John thanks for stopping by. @George, I presume the ccity price is good, you'd hardly have recommended otherwise :) I'm actually looking for a USB-powered 500Gb HDD, sick of the big, 3.5" enclosures with the need for separate power cable :S Just one more thing to trip over and bring yr entire music collection crashing to the ground, gone for good. This actually happened, I may have shed a tear...
Hey.. did you get this in the end? The comapny I work for sells these. BCS Computers.. roughly same price incl VAT. P :-)
@Pamela, nope, never got around to it :) Joys of parenting, as I'm sure you're aware! Do you have a link to your company's site?
