WOW, that is great you won that. Being in the US and not knowing pound value without looking it up, I looked at the site to see what you might get for the 500, I didn't realize how great a chunk of change that is.

Tom and his sponsors have made some people very happy.
 
You should give him your old rig if he pays shipping.

I would have (minus a few things lol)

I don't know how to respond really, does saying no make me sound like a dick? lol

Well basically I am going to university next year so I will be selling my current rig and putting it into my savings account for accommodation etc

Its about $800 US, the exchange rate has been 1.6:1 for around a year or so.

And alot more people very disappointed. Still, expecting something for nothing is bound to leave you disappointed ahaha :p

I'm sorry you're doing so badly man, its a shame you didn't win second or first prize, it sounds like you could've used it alot more :sad:

Hey, no-ones trying to guilt trip you pal, Tom obviously chose you for a reason - I can relate to needing money for uni; believe me that 500 quid or however much you'll get for your rig will barely touch your bank account before being spent >.<

If I were you I'd get a laptop or something, saves you spending it on booze nights out ahahaha :lol:

Congrats Seamasbeathan, this is one great system and it could not have gone to a more deserving individual.
