Have a mac code for tullamore and went in to get it about an hour ago, on the stock checker it shows as €110 but when i tried to pay at the self service kiosk the price is €1100 so no joy, chanced my arm with the manager and no dice would have been a serious bargain

Rang argos Tralee just now about my reservation for the chest of drawers, apparently the delivery never arrived and will not be coming

Much appreciated.

Was over earlier this afternoon but they were having none of it. As it turns out someone else was there before me in the last day or two so they were well aware of the mis-priced item.

Pity though

Hi guys,
First time poster in here. I'm wondering if anyone has bought the Hoover S2IN1300C Steamjet Steam Mop and if so, how do you rate it?
It's currently listed at €49.99 (down from €135).

Hi guys spotted this chest of drawers, 3337062. the white colour is €22.98 but the oak and black versions are €223.98. According to check argos it can be ordered for collection everywhere in the country

Thanks for the tip, got two today in Limerick. They originally wanted the new price but I showed them the Email on my phone and they had no problem with honouring it at the reserved price.

Not a macbook but reasonable value on panasonic pro power alkalines. AA as AAA 8 & 8 free, so 16 for for €4.99

Denver drawers weren't in for me today neither, said it was down to the bad weather and the ships couldn't get over. Said they should be available to collect tomorrow though.

Just something to bear in mind: they're not obliged to give it to you at the reserved price: http://www.argos.ie/static/StaticDisplay/includeName/Reserving.htm

Please note that our prices change, sometimes on a daily basis. The price you pay is the price in store on the day you collect your items.

Berty · 20-01-2015 09:16AM

Got my Denver collect code today. Thing is my email was blank so no price on it so cannot prove the reservation price. Text was never received till today. Surprised me really.

Will go in and see what the upright self service thing says but I've nothing to back up my price argument with though.

I see stock in my local store, didn't get a text quote (i only half expected one today), and my email reservation was 'empty'... think i'm out of luck, although I printed off the price at the time of reservation screenshot! Time to check out ikea drawers again!

DoYouEvenLift · 20-01-2015 11:24AM

I'm trying to find the phone number to call and check if my order's in store yet because I went in the other night and they weren't, but i can't seem to find it on the site. Does every store not have their own individual customer service line?

Berty · 20-01-2015 11:30AM

My reservation code just says "limerick" and normally it says the store name as there are three and I did try unsuccessfully at each store with those blank emails coming back.

Chances of me getting it at the extra store at the misprice is unlikely but it will only take a few minutes to check. If it's more than the misprice then I'll head off.

The_Conductor · 20-01-2015 11:51AM

Ditto- if anyone has the phone number for the Ilac centre branch- I'd be really grateful.

Thanks!

I emailed them and got this included as part of the automated responses, and it would be fine but the fuking links lead to broken pages when I click on them lol.

And it has this information, about Irish stores, on the UK site. What's the point of that? I would never thought to check the UK site for Irush details.It's like they really don't want customers to find their store numbers easily.

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

Not 100% on that though

I reserved something on Sunday night, only gave me until yesterday evening to collect.

Anyway, Jamie Oliver knife set (think it was mentioned on here before?) reduced from €35 to €9.99

Gets decent enough reviews on Amazon.

I think if you reserve Saturday, you will have until close of business Monday to collect

DubDJ · 20-01-2015 01:13PM

I'm just back from Ilac Centre and still nothing in the system. The girl said they were taking the delivery in at the moment. Looking like tomorrow but said I could try this evening if I wanted.

Berty · 20-01-2015 02:05PM

Turns out the reservation text I got to tell me my item was in wasn't for the chest but for the locker.

Locker came up as €44.98 and a kind user here had sent me the email for the chest showing €22.98. Showed it to cashier and neither of us(idiots) spotted it was for a different item so she changed the price and I only noticed when the tiny box came out. Lol. Got a refund anyway.

FYI. The price for the chest of drawers is now €111 in store so getting them from €45 to €23 was easy. Maybe €111 to €23 will be a step too far.

uck51js9zml2yt · 20-01-2015 02:24PM

Picked up my drawers for 22.98.

The 500 GB hard drives are due into Blanch tomorrow for 25 euro.

Berty · 20-01-2015 03:10PM

Got the chest of drawers. Manager even carried stuff to the car. Haha

Witchie · 20-01-2015 03:28PM

I got a text saying that my chest of drawers were in so going to collect them in about an hour.

Will let you know!

GaGa21 · 20-01-2015 03:37PM

Has any one got the drawers yet where the email was blank? Still haven't recieved text yet.
