28 day 'Sale' at Paddy's Market. It can join the growing number of outlets that have "closing down" Sales, only to re-open as something else but still selling the same gear.
Paddy's Market could possibly re-open as MnM (Marion's 'new' Market) :idea:

Last August, 14 people were arrested and £300,000 of fake DVDs and CDs were seized there. ... Among the items seized were the latest film-release DVDs and chart titles, which if sold would have cost the industry £1million.


How many disks were raided, to be worth £1million, and how much are they estimating their normal retail price would have been? Not everyone would buy DVD's at their RRP, but if someone's flogging them cheap then they might give them a go. Usually these figures are grossly inflated.[/quote]

They attempt to shut it down every couple of years. but i have a horrible feeling they might just do it this time.

As I thought do you strip naked then cover youself in glue, run into oxfam and buy anything that sticks to you. Saves all that browsing crap I suppose.
