He's a jobsworth.

Your complaint exhibited something sold in the UK as a CD which did
not play on a device sold in the UK as suitable for playing CDs.  Ergo
there is a `trades description' case to answer and it's trading
standards' job to look into it and hassle at least one of the
producers in question - or their UK retailers.

Has anyone in Cambridge talked to Cambridge trading standards ?
