Argos Chat Thread #1

Mr.Crinklewood

Seems most weeks we have a bargain or two from Argos, thought it might be an idea to have a dedicated forum like the one for Tesco:-

Sound Asleep Pillow - was € 39.99 - now € 11.99

Morphy Richards Fastbake Breadmaker - was €159.99 - now €79.99.

PAC-MAN Remote Controlled Man and Ghost Racers - was € 39.19 - now €19.59

Mod Edit:

If anyone is looking for an item and is looking to check for stock nationwide. Use http://checkargos.com/.

Mod note please read post 352 - here

I know this is 'chat' thread but can we keep it strictly to the items posted in the Argos thread for everyone's benefit.

Thanks

I dont mean to doubt you but.....

Theres no € symbol beside the price on the right hand side.
The 'Exempt' and 'Reservation' text is usually on single lines.
The spacing seems all wrong on the text.

Compare for contrast :P

But well done :rolleyes:

Have they changed the reservation duration on all items from <end of day +24hrs> to <end of day +48hrs>?

Think you get an extra day if the reservation falls on a Sunday, if I remember right.

Not 100% on that though

I have a receipt from the self service today and it's the very same as the "Lucky" purchasers".

No € sign, guarantee and reservation Number look the exact same & Bold Type looks the same.

Saw this on the checker (which i only discovered today, thanks)

Might have been posted already but they've mini maglites for a tenner. They're good torches well worth the money. Stock isn't great but worth a look if you want a good torch!

Trying to get the Macbook and it is coming up saying there is stock in my local store but when you try to reserve it, it is out of stock.

Sadface.

Not to go all Joe Duffy on it, but surely if you have a reservation code and pay at the kiosk, a contract is formed, payment is made, and the goods are yours? Irrespective of what the manager might say?

Contract is made once the payment is made. Then they have to give it you. No matter what.

They have the right to change the price before you hand over any money and its up to you to decide if your still willing to buy it for the changed price.

Was it the self service you used?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

So if you price you reserved at comes up on the self serve and you pay there and then, the goods are yours.

Yep, reservation is pretty much the same as you going into Tesco and seeing it priced at €110 and taking it to the checkout, the pricing is an 'invitation to treat' basically them offering the product at that price but only when payment passes over do Tesco accept your 'offer' i.e. payment, once payment is accepted then the contract is complete.
Fair dues to the Argos letting the Mac go for that price and even though I thanked the guy who got it already he truly deserves another congrat, January and the Argos deal of the year winner already.
I tried and failed to reserve but I got two of the €25 hard drives for the bro and I so happy out.

Since we're getting legal then the contract is completely unlawful. There's no "consensus ad idem" between the parties and could also be voided for Mistake.

Of course none of that crap matters once you get it into your hot little handies and run out of the store for dear life!

Three things to create a contract - Offer (the goods are for sale), Acceptance (accepting the offer to purchase) and Consideration (money or payment must occur) all three in there? then it's a legal binding contract - now back to more BARGAINS !!!
