    Dell U3014 Replacement Warranty (Where do I stand)

    When they called he did state I should have been told it would be a refurb'd screen as it was 4 months old and to retain all packaging. He spoke with his manager/supervisor explaining my situation and offered this one-time replacement with a new boxed display. Fingers crossed this one will...

    Dell U3014 Replacement Warranty (Where do I stand)

    Sent Dell an e-mail and just received a phone call. They will be sending a brand new boxed monitor to me next Wednesday. On the basis they did not explain the replacement would be refurbed or to keep the original packaging for the monitor. Happy ending after all... :)

    Dell U3014 Replacement Warranty (Where do I stand)

    Hi everyone, I thought I'd ask this question here as I know a few will probably own this screen or another hi-end display. Basically, I purchased a brand new U3014 in July. On-Screen display was hit or miss as to if would work, random horizontal lines would occur across the screen until it...

    Kate's "boobs"

    So the 36MP of the D800 has a use after all then? 500mm with a 2x T/C cropped down and still giving a publishable print size. :lol:

    Sigma 100-300 f/4 - Focus Ring Wobbles?

    So I suppose I made a bad decision buying a lens from eBay but having never had a bad experience in just under 200 purchases I thought why not. I bought the lens at the tail end of last month and it arrived at the office on Monday there. Upon opening the box and removing the lens from the...

    Leuchars air show

    Was up there myself today with a colleague. Entry price was IMO a bit steep but it was a very well organised and laid out show. There certainly was a lot of togs there, there were Canon 100-400 f/4-5.6Ls everywhere! Aside from being blown around by the 25 knot wind, it was a great day and...

    Cruise Control

    If a car has cruise, I will be using it. Makes the drive much more enjoyable and means you'll never speed. My Dad is the only person I know who hates it though.

    Looking for Waterproofs

    Forgot to add to my post, but I got my gear from Tiso. Don't know if there is one near you but the staff are very knowledgeable and the prices were good too. Anyway, good luck on finding the right stuff! :thumbs:
