One more trick that you can try. But I would say that this is somewhat the last effort as it might damage the HDD even more.
Put it in a a fridge for over night or so that it is really cold. If there is some bearings that are not round anymore that should make them a bit smaller and make it rotate again.
Just keep it there for long enough so that it really get thoroughly cold. Might be a good idea to put it in a bag of some sort to prevent moisture.

Don't worry PS, SnS will get them too I've been told. Price will probably be closer to resellers than Size though

Aha. So much for the infamous Size? exclusives...

Often just a UK exclusive is it not? Which, these days, equates to being not that exclusive.
RE: Things that make your blood boil -

Yep, when they say exclusive they mean for the UK region.

Aha I see... Didn't know that. Sorry Size?!

Hope to spread this among everybody who are tempted to buy the Size?-Trimm Trabs from resellers:
"Please accept my apologies that your order was cancelled and refunded. We are due to restock this item towards the end of March.

senior management have wasted £4m on a project that doesn't work, anyone on the shop floor could have told them that, but no. they go ahead with the idea... now the company has to make cut backs as it needs to recoup the money, 2 people in my department have to go (there's only 5 of us) and none of us had anything to do with the project, as far as i know the managers are still doing other projects at a different depot now. wankers.
might be a few size 8's up for grabs in a month if im one of the 2... either way its shit news as they are a good team and none of us would want to see anyone leave. fucking typical that the ones responsible don't take any of the impact from their failings
