Re: tz5 for £190 from dixons.

Hi

I tried this today but they said no. So i guess it depends on who you get on the phone. They said since the company will supply from their USA warehouse if the UK is not in stock they are unwilling to pricematch, even though when i spoke to them they said it was in stock (hence in stock in their UK warehouse)

I dont get it, but its ok im sure it will come down in price again before i have to buy before my holiday mid june.

Re: tz5 for £190 from dixons.

Any particular reason for not simply buying it from egears.co.uk ?

Re: tz5 for £190 from dixons.

Just ordered a TZ5 from 7dayshop for ony a couple of quid more (£194); this allowed me to add some other items to the order without being fleeced on postage (batteries, SD cards, spare TZ5 battery etc.). I'd been waiting a month or so to put together an order for bits from them anyway.

Re: tz5 for £190 from dixons.

After seeing this thread, I just had to take the plunge. Same price, £190 delivered from Dixons with the price promise. Ordered an 8gb sdhc card from play as well! Damn these forums
