Are Splash now Blah?

Seymour Scagnetti (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Thursday, 1st April 2004, 11:46

Just been reading the DVD Bargains section in AVForums and there is a curiously unconvincing recommendation of a site at which to buy Kill Bill. Reading the thread, it seems that Blahdvd is located in the same building as Splash were. Could be coincidence but........

the navifation through the site looks very familar....halfway between Play and another one I can`t recall at the moment. I`ve certainly never heard of these people before. Anyone had any dealings??

There`s a big conversation on this at the DVDForums aswell. I think it`s a bit dodgy and the site looks very much like Play

It looks like a good site, but very similar to Play.com...

Got this e-mail today after I complained to trading standards about this

Dear Mr Wildman

Thank you for your e mail of 1st April.

I am very concerned by the sort of unfounded allegations about BlahDVD.com
which you indicate are being circulated all over the internet consumer
community and you have reinforced this with your own allegations of
"financial criminality and fraud". You further state "and I would like to
know what you people are going to do about it". I assume that by the term
"you people" you are referring to me and my 3 staff. I would be grateful if
you could note the following:

* Beachside Business Centre is the registered address for a large
number of Jersey registered companies
* SplashDVD/Toppers CI Ltd did not trade from premises at Beachside
Business Centre and neither do BlahDVD.com
* The liquidation of Toppers CI Limited is on-going and a liquidators
report will eventually be submitted to Jersey`s Attorney General who will
decide if evidence of fraud exists
* I am satisfied from my enquiries that there is absolutely no
connection between SplashDVD/Toppers CI Limited and Blah Limited, trading as
BlahDVD.com

I hope this information is clear and unambiguous but do let me know if there
is anything else you think me or my staff may help you with.


Yours sincerely

What proof is there that BlahDVD and SplashDVD are the same?

Think they are connected........... Where did you think all that money that went missing from splashdvd went?

The Jersey authorities are onto them though i think....
