Anyone ever buy off "Watters Electrical"?

    Hello all,

    I was wondering has anyone bought anything off "Watters Electrical"? Their website is www.watterselectrical.co.uk but it has no details about what they sell. Have gotten some prices that seem too good to be true, so would like to check they're kosher.

    My friend will be buying an Acer laptop from them that also has MS Office (business version), at a price that the laptop alone would cost down here. Don't want to buy the laptop only to find out that it's only a friggin 90 day trial, or even worse...

    I'm Googleing the site atm, but finding little or nothing in the way of information regarding their computer sales department.

    If this is the same watters in cullaville then they are decent to deal with amd have been trading for a long time. Bought tv's from them in the past

    Just looked at your link and see it is them, they are decent to deal with from mt experience and also know others that have dealt with them

    They basically have a large building and have everything from tvs, dishwashers, washing machines etc all veside eachother so would say the 'computer department' would just be a dude in a corner of it

    Aye. I go by the "if it's too good to be true, it usually isn't" saying, so checking them out before I buy a few grand worth of computers off them.

    Did it ship with a license card? Office professional costs circa €200+ euro, I recently paid €150+ for a home and business license for Office, am a bit suspicious at that tbh,

    I have bought stuff from them in the past and know others that have bought stuff also.

    Prices always seem to be brilliant from them. If you're in Dublin and going to spend a few grand why not drive down. They are around an hours drive
