I hope that Dixons and Curries follow, I hate these shops they rip customers off with high prices and poor service I just wish the general public new how to use the internet to get cheap deals .

I agree with nevi............rip-off merchants, warranties where you get your money back if you don`t claim on it, what they don`t tell you is that you have to send away a copy of your receipt, a tear off slip and all this....... three days before you bought the equipment (okay, that was a slight exageration) Furck them! >:(
Cheers, Marty :)
Just because you`re paranoid, doesn`t mean they`re NOT out to get you! :)

Although the internet is good for bargains,little independent shops can be just as cheap and you can get good service.
Admittedly Powerhouse wasn`t too good, I`ve just suprised myself by getting the dishwasher I wanted at the cheapest price from Curries online.They delivered in 4 days and within a 5hr timeslot. Normally I buy from QED , but credit where it is due.

I love Powerhouse for selling me a Tivo for £99 - best bit of kit I`veever bought :)

Definately! Yes, but I won`t be buying worthless furcking warranties.

Well I work at Powerhouse, and while I haven`t lost my job yet, it is inevitable. The stores that have and are closing are selling their stock off at half price.
You look like you were beaten with a whole tree full of ugly sticks!

I remember the last time a Powerhouse closed.
£30 for an On Digital box, 6 weeks before the Freeview start up.
