    I know, but when Currys go tits up, and Matsui products become collectible, I will get thousands for that DVD player. And I know Marco won't harbour any ill will.

    Matsui is not collectible now?

    I'll stick to Saisho then. Dixon's knew what they were doing.

    You're most welcome, sir.

    Incidentally, I've reserved those 30 packets of audiophile 'wuffle dust' you wanted, at £500 each [I gave you 20% off, due to your higher than usual customer gullibility rating, and chucked in a free tickling stick].

    May I also put you down for the usual 50 litres of my (freshly soaked in) bath water? This lot is not quite as cloudy, so may attract a small premium

    Marco.

    Admittedly, if you want premium quality straight out of the box, you go Saisho.

    But Matsui components are easily upgradable, you just tip everything out, and replace with something else.

    The casework is a bit of a let-down, though, but hey you can't have everything...

    I don't mind paying a bit more for your bath water, as I know it's had a higher number of fart bubbles pass through it. And the toenail clippings I find at the bottom make great toothpicks. A real bargain.
