As I'm on the mailing list for DSE I received an email today entitled "An Open Letter to our Customers" in which they attempted to sell the idea that "we're still here, come and spend your money with us".

But here's the inequity. If I walked in today and gave them $500 I would be able to walk away with $500 of stuff. But any poor sod that bought $500 of gift vouchers before Christmas can no longer use them. In my book that's theft.

I should point out that I'm NOT one of those affected by the gift voucher ripoff. I understand that this is how things work in a receivership situation, but the truth is that they deliberately waited to maximise their Christmas intake of cash before voluntarily going into receivership, thereby knowingly screwing anyone that bought vouchers as a Christmas present.

Spend more money in Dick Smith? No chance!
