I bought a set of computer speakers with sub off eBay, brand new, they turned up with a euro style two pin plug on. No mention of this in the ad. I've already mailed the guy saying these speakers didn't work for me today because I need to go shopping tomorrow for an adapter thing and it would have been nice to know this and get one when I was there yesterday.

The deal was otherwise sound.

Its only two quid, but I feel an injustice

What? Congratulating him on his choice of plug?

I wouldn't mind but he and I are both UK residents, not like I wouldn't expect a UK plug!

Quite a lot of the speaker systems sold at the trade fairs have euro plugs, cheap to import from over in France etc, thats why...

I have the plug. 39p

I also don't know how to wire it up and as its for work and I don't want to burn the place down I'm going to buy an adapter tomorrow instead.

Unless anyone finds me the euro colour codes between now and tomorrow....
