Default Harvey (Rip off) Norman

Laptop power lead went wha wha last night.

Went into Harvey Norman's today to get a new one.
If i wanted a lead that matches my computer (HP) he said id have to pay 150 yo yo's and wait two weeks !

Or buy there cheapest universal lead for 89.99 yoyo's with only one connection.

I said to myself, fuck that im going northside to sort this out.

Went to Maplin electronics in Blackpool near Argos.
Picked myself up a universal lead with 9 various connections for the princely sum of 65 snots

Sorted and end of rant.

I bought one from the UK on ebay last year. It cost £9.50 + £3pp (€15 approx) and it took about 5 days to arrive.

There's loads on there for every brandname and model.

It's a step down transformer with a heat shield.

But 20 quid is the most I'd pay for one.
