Was after a dvd burner a while back, so I went to fleabay and boght a wierd make one cant remember now…anyway the dude lived about 50miles away we chatted on msn for a bit he sent the drive with a reciept for when he bought it in pc world…
so recently It died, no more dvd burner I thought until today I came across the recipt and found that It was still under 12month warrenty by pc world…so I unscrew the burner put it in its box and leave for pc world…Whilst on the way im wondering what hell say about the condition maybe, what if he asks me loads of questions about when and where I bought it etc etc…
so I get there walk in go to desk…
’ hi um bought this a while back and its recently broke’
staff ’ um ok ye go find something you want in store and ill switch it…I cant even be botherd to check it…’
Me trodlles off picks up one 10quid cheaper than that one a Sont jobbie DRU-800a
I love scamming the gits… its annoying any joe blogs could go in off the street say my pc is giving me problems explain there problem and the pc world adivsor would say scrap it and buy a new one…
when I went there last they didnt have a usb headset…excuse…theyre only just coming out…I went about a week ago…
Very occasionally you can pick up something at a reasonable price, but not very often. I, like most of you, tend to use them only in emergencies (like when I fry a mobo at Mojo’s )
I am keeping an eye on my local PC World, though, as it is relocating soon and they will not take anything with them so there may be a bargain or two to be had…
