What's the price now?

The simple fact is that your prices are plain ridiculous and I mean no disrespect. You are gonna charge more than double the RRP and I know you'll say that the consoles are widely unavailable but the fact is that you preordered and now want to make a killing. Bad strategy for long term business success. My two cents

Morgan567: I am a script writer and movie critic and from a techincal and story angle, White house down is better. It has a story, a beginning and an end, nicely written. Olympus has fallen is cool too but no good story, just destruction shaaa. Got tired midway...

Some scriptwriter you are! If you actually believe that WHD had a good script, then you have no business writing scripts and I say this without any malice. Stick to your day's job bro

Orlanda Owoh,
Is it impossible to make your point without mentioning another tribe that had nothing to do with the initial thread?

You are small minded and obviously haven't travelled beyond the borders of this country. Make your point and move on, no need to go on a tribal dimension. This goes for both the yoruba and ibo bigots. Expand your little minds. Life is too short

Can we all stick to the thread please! I wonder why someone would want to type an entire section of the bible when it is totally unrelated to the thread.

Stick to the topic! Say your prayers in your own thread created in the Religion section!

@OP, do you really need advice on this? This isn't rocket science. The answer to your question is embedded within the question. Oya, Gulder Ultimate Search kia kia !!

I understand your dilemma. Not to mince words, I'd never ever ever ever work in a place where I'd constantly have to look behind my shoulders. Life comes first. Apply wisdom!

@OP,
First, looking at your fugly profile photo, nucca, you ain't cute; you are straight up HIDEOUS, so that part about "obviously looking handsome" is total B.S. Secondly, why is a young man such as yourself balding so quickly? bad nutrition would be my guess. Thirdly, I ain't gonna ask you to get off your high horse simply because you don't even have any type of horse; high or low. Thirdly, ain't no good looking, well paid Nigerian woman ever letting you have some, you self-hating prick.

I peeped you youtube channel and nucca, you lame as Bleep. Last on the list, and this goes to Nairaland, it should NOT be sooooo easy to create a thread. Get some game and a life ugly looking, heineken sipping prick!!

I also used to brag about being a very badt guys. As of the moment, I officially repudiate of my claims of being a badt guys, as a matter of fact, I am now a goodt guys. I can't afford to lose my Jincheng bike because of word of mouth!! Wizkid, sorry sha

No real man would do sth like this to punish a woman. If she cheated, leave in style. If this girl was a relative of mine, this dude would have to watch his back for the rest of his life.

while I am at it, do you have some cocaine that you want to send back? SMH

will do. Thanks bro

@justwise,
I still have some jackets from a trip I made to Sweden but from what I hear, I think I just have to make a coat from Elephant hide. Once again, thanks for ur advice from the other time

@op,
justwise is my kinda person. he tells you the plain, bitter truth. If anything, I think everybody should emulate him.
@justwise,
I once posted a thread on Northumbria university and you replied me several times on that thread. Not only did I get the admission, I also have my student visa and I leave in about a week. I appreciate all your effort and I say in capital letters; KEEP TELLING THINGS THE WAY THEY ARE!!!

@justwise, I just got an unconditional offer and I am racing to pay the full cost of tuition first thing tomorrow morning. Thank you for all your help. You are the best!!!!

@justwise
Thanks. I will definitely give u a shout when I get the offer

@justwise
It is so annoying to see yourself being propelled towards something you tried taking steps to avoid. I enrolled with an agent (PFL) with a quite handsome fee before I started visiting the traval section of Nairaland. They were supposed to look for a good school for me with January start, they were not very meticulous and they suggested University of Greenwich. Being a greenhorn then, I hurriedly got all supporting documents and submitted to them around July.

I got on the internet one day out of boredom and I saw that Greenwich was lowly ranked according to Sunday times, Guardian and a few other sources. Needless to say, I was immediately disenchanted with the school and after countless hours of googling, I found a University on a decent spot on the tables that offers my intended course of study also with January start (Northumbria). I went back to my agent whose account I massaged with a good sum of money only to be told that they were not affillated with the school and they couldnt help me with the application and couldnt give me a refund (note that they hadnt applied to Greenwich then).

I now decided to apply directly and I did this on the 4th of October and with the way things are going, I might be involved in the December rush that I had tried avoiding (I have had complete tuition and maintenance for over 80 days)

I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed and wait for Northumbria to get its act together.

@justwise
I am really happy that the legendary "you" replied to my post. The problem is that they sent a mail saying that the recieved my application and a decision would be reached shortly and relayed to me but they have neither given me a conditional offer, an unconditional offer or a refusal letter. I am willing to pay the tuition in full (£9800) to be eligible for a £300 discount for paying in full which would now bring tuition to £9500.

Each time I call, its always the same story about how the admissions panel will take a decision "soon" but it never happens. I have sent two emails requesting that they expedite the process but they didnt reply those mails. I am tempted to go for other lower rated schools because from the other threads that you have offered your expert advice, I know paying fees, getting CAS and applying for a tier 4 student visa takes a while and the couse resumption date is Jan 17th

What do you think I should do at this point?

hello all
I tendered an all my supporting documents in pursuance of an Engineering MSc course for January 2011 to the University of Northumbria on the 4th of October and I am yet to get an offer.

My grades are good and all the documents ( transcripts, first degree certificate. Recommendation letters from my employer and school) were scanned in the correct format which the school has acknowledged receiving.

I am curious to know if anyone has had a similar experience with the said school. I already got offers for strathclyde, Hertfordshire, Notgtingham Trent all a few days after I applied but Northumbria is actually wher I wanna go. Each time I call them, they always tell me that I will get a reply soon but soon never comes.

Pls anyone with a similar experience, please let me know because I wanna apply for the tier 4 student visa on time but cannot do that without a CAS.

I sincerely hope your mum isnt on Nairaland cos with such a unique story, she might just click on the profile associated with the creator of this thread and see your picture boldly on display.

As for you not "keen" on seeing your baby brother's picture, that is just plain wicked. Grow up!!!!! you are 21 and should be "keen" on starting your own family and not being such a silly child (insult is highly intended).

She brought you into the world and she can take you out too ( my mum's favourite line). Once again, GROW UP!!!!!

who says ur elder brother cant sponsor u directly? u both have the same surname and u both have birth certificates with the same names as your parents. Get his bank account statement and a letter from him and you are good to go. Good luck

I'll bet my last nickel that after a month with her in a relationship, you'll have a thread with a title like this: Look before you leap; Tale of deceit.

I have a PS3 and a Nokia N900 but I just don't want to take the risk cos Sony will definitely screw me over with a new firmware upgrade

@op,For once? I have been proud of being Nigerian like forever!!!!!

I believe "goaty" is the word you are looking for. Just saying,
