Does anyone know a cheap online shop, who also have a shop/showroom of some sort, where the goods can be collected from in person. I have a local dealer, who said that if the competiton met these requirements, then he would match the price, regardless of location (in the U.K) cheers JP
empire direct!! You ring empire direct - havn't got it in stock. ring the bricks and mortor Empire Electrical, they have it in stock and will match they're online sibling (+carriage of £8) Richer sounds charge an extra 10% on thier on-line prices at thier shops + £5 (I think) per item (even if the carriage on the website is cheaper)
I used yell.co.uk for your nearest. bradford its called empire megastores and leeds its called empire electrical have a browse round and see if you can find your local one
Also, you could look at Jones of Oakwood (Leeds). And the self-styled leaders in DVD chipping, techtronics, have a shop/showroom somewhere in Lincolnshire. Evidently, they, too, will allow you to collect at web prices.
I've always though Jones of Oakwood were super-expensive. The Oakwood shop was, and thier other shop opposite seven-oaks in Vicar Lane is a sony franchise
Try Sound & Vision at Bolton. They guarantee to be the cheapest in the country and don't charge P&P. Top quality service I've just bought a DVD player from them. (Price matched to Richer Sounds who were only taking orders as they had sold out!)
I bought my THX kef series 1 from them last year and they were very good. The only problem I had they had short changed me on the speaker cable by a few meters. I had measured the cables pretty accuratly so had hardly any room for mistakes. It took them ages with lots of frustrated calls to get it sorted out.
