Hi tony, Your Argos dealer must supply different goods from mine that share the same product number as yours!!! [smile] I went to my local Argos store yesterday with my son, and was shown the same product number model CD player as you mention, and it was very fiddly to use with smalls raised dots on its side, and it didn't play MP3 CD's as I took one with me fro Calibre to try, and the shop assistant said it didn't play them also. However, I was told that their Alba model did play them, and it was certainly mor user friendly. I think you have got your wires corossed! [smile] Kind regards, Gerry.m ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
