    Someone got a nuke handy? It'll spare the rest of us a mind-numbing, ear-aching bout of mental torture.

    Some of the price tags had already been rebranded Zavvi several weeks ago, was wondering why...

    As for the name, well, my 2c but it sounds like "savvy" as in "tech-savvy"...sounds weird though...The black and green brand colours are a tab bit intimidating for a media outlet imo :rolleyes:

    Same here, I popped in to buy a few last minutes presents and was wondering why Zavvi was on loads of the labels.

    They call him Flipper Flipper, banned quick as lightning...

    Lads, please don't antagonise the PROCers.

    We leave them alone, they leave us alone.

    edit: above now added to the charter, and Flipperthingy sitebanned.

    Not happy.
