It's not even had a run at the price they stated it would be, it's immediately discounted to less than we paid. If it was dropped from the £199.95 to £149.95 like we paid I wouldn't have an issue, I'd just shrug and go "at least I got it early". But it halving in price immediately on it's actual launch? To the point where I've essentially paid £25 a month to have Tivo early? I'm sorry but that's not just a normal price drop, that's a complete **** take.

This guy really is talking sense, the excuse for being an early adopter just doesnt cut it. I'm sure a lot of us here are "early adopters", we paid £900 for Blueray players or £400+ for PS3, back in the day we paid £1000 for a CD player..
But never before has something dropped in price so fast,,,,actually the original xbox dropped in price. I think I paid £299 for my original big xbox1 then 6 weeks later it dropped to £99...But microsoft sent us all 2 games RRP£40 and extra pad RRP£39.99 and some xboxlive gold time.
