  • Thats been there a few days now, yet to see anyplace in the country have stock, Argos seem keen on doing items like that with no stock.

    Before Xmas they had other mp3s on sale, again couldn't find one in stock anywhere. They should stop with the false advertising..

  • it's not really false advertising
  • Implying the fact that it might be available nationwide, when noone can find stock is false advertising IMHO.

    Argos should be forced reveal where stock is instead of making us find it (made quite deliberate on their part as it makes ppl browse and window shop their site)

    It's deceptive and devious tbh.

    The same story with the 19" TFT monitor for £120 they recently 'had for sale'. I called them (about the monitor) & they did not have stock anywhere.

    They can be contacted on 0870 600 3030 - they'll do an online stock check while you hold. The 0870 call will last under 10 min (it did for me when I enquired about the monitor anyway). All the best, G

    Not sure if it would save you money but there is a geographical number for that number you gave which is 01908 690333 but as i said maybe the 0870 is a local call anyway?

  • This is in stock at Bedford, Stevenage and will be in Biggleswade next week - info taken from the Argos website. The price is still £1.99
  • Sorry the £1.99 is for the PS2 DVD remote, not for the MP3 player. Please see this link
