Alright?

I want to buy myself a new tellybox for the Olympics and have been looking around.

The model I like the look of is, upsuprisingly, more expensive in Comet etc than you can find online.

I realise that they can't probably match the online price but do these large high street chains budge on price at all?

Thought I'd ask before I stride in there and make myself look a prize cok

cheers

ps any recommendations for good independant TV shops to have a look in around Brighton & Hove?

You might be able to get a small discount. But you must speak to the Manager, otherwise it will be a no go.

But try an independent shop, they will look after you properly on price and service. :)

try Hills of Hove

Trust me, you wont look a cok. There is a 'recession' on. You've got money and they want it. I have found recently if you speak to the manager of these types of stores they will equal the internet price.
Good luck

Always ask for the the store manager;they can at least knock 10% of the purchase price!

At the very least, get free delivery with the haggle!


And i think they are obliged to match the online price?
