Very annnoyed.
Buy Brian the Brain. at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for .
I'm very annoyed. I bought the above item in December 2007 for a Christmas present for my son. I paid £79.99 for it. Now Argos are selling it for £19.99, that's £60 cheaper! Has this ever happened to you? Did you complain and if so what was the outcome?

Re: Very annnoyed.
It happens all the time Lilly, you know this, you aren’t that daft. The buggers will most likely still be making a profit on it at £19.99. The High Street giants have us for mugs all year round.
Have a glass of wine or summat and calm down

Re: Very annnoyed.
I bought a computer in 1996 and it cost me £1000. I notice you can now buy a much better one for around £250!!!
Is there any way I'd get a refund?

Re: Very annnoyed.
I don't think you have grounds to complain as it's the same as any other goods being sold at knock-down prices after Christmas. Argos shows the original price in the description and I'd guess they over-estimated how many they would sell and have been left with a few on their hands. It is galling, though, I agree.

Re: Very annnoyed.
I once bought Mick a gold chain from there and the next day was the start of the free gift voucher wys £50 and £100 i asked if they would give me the voucher or do they want me to refund the item and buy it again the next day so i could have the voucher. They went off the talk to the manager and came back and gave me the voucher!
If you dont ask you dont get.!

Re: Very annnoyed.
