Halpenny Golfs risky price promise!

randomer

I was in Halpenny Golf in Swords last week and they have a poster oustide the store saying that they have a price promise; "Double the difference! if we are beaten on price we will give you back double the difference".

There are no terms and conditions listed on the poster, but I am sure there are some. My guess is that it relates to items available in other local stores, such as McGuirks, rather than internet retailers.

I sent them an email last week asking for the terms and conditions, but they didn't reply so I have decided to post this here.



I had a quick look at the two websites to see if there were any major discrepencies. The first one that I found was the Nike SRT 8 drive.

199 euro at McGuirks (http://www.mcguirksgolf.com/woods/nike-str-8-driver-p-2379.html)

279 euro at Halpenny golf. (http://www.halpennygolf.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=11&products_id=1778)

So you can but it in Halpenny for 279, and then get a refund of 160 euro, so the club wil actually cost you 139 euro!

The second item I saw was the Callaway FTiQ driver.

248.99 euro at McGuirks (http://www.mcguirksgolf.com/woods/callaway-ft-iq-driver-p-2235.html)

349 euro at Halpenny (http://www.halpennygolf.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_4&products_id=1739)

So you can get it in Halpenny for 148.98!!!

I was trying to find something for sale in Halpenny that would result in them having to refund you more than the purchase price (they would essentially be paying you to buy an item), but I couldn't find anything (although there may be something there).

To be fair to Halpenny Golf, they do appear to be cheaper than McGuirks on a lot of items, but because they didn't reply to my email I have decided to post this!

Caveat venditor!

I found a caddycart for €25 cheaper in McGuirks than Halfpennys, so therefore I should get it for €50 cheaper now in Halfpenneys?

Can never see them holding to that...

Would like to see a post from someone who's bought something and challenged them on their promise
