ARGOS CLEARANCE SALE MARK XXII

lnjk

Hi all

As mentioned up thread somewhere I asked in my nearest Argos for a list of clearance items - didn't expect to get anything, but the girl gave me a print out headed RO PRICES.  I've reproduced it below.

I've got no idea how this RO thing works....the list I was handed also says "Stock Details Report for Store 208" so I don't know if the same items will appear in other stores or if other stores will have different items.

Anyway, good luck, I hope you all find something you really want at an excellent price.

Thanks

i`ve tried some of the catalogue numbers from the list but on the argos site it comes up that it does`nt recognise the cat number. Does this mean that they`ve none left? Sorry if its a stupid Q?

For RO numbers you can only use the Ring and Reserve facility or the stock checkers in store

Venturer Portable DVD PVS166W 6.5" Screen
This player was recently on offer at Argos for £99.99 but has been put back up to £129.99.

I have just bought one for £99.99 so was lucky, however, I intend to return it under the 16 day returns policy as it is not exactly what I want.

So, if anyone is interested in it at the original price of £99.99 (plus postage) then you are more than welcome, it comes with the full warranty from Argos.

My review of it.
When I first opened it, I was very impressed, the screen was not noticable smaller than a 7" screen, it was light and compact (I have only ever seen one other portable though) and comes with all the leads, power adapter, case and even headphones. I have applied the region free code and tested it with original dvd's, DVD+/- disks (the + disks can jitter a little but my + disks are cheapos. The minus disks seem fine) it also plays MP3, and all sorts of other stuff.

My reason for returning this item is really down to the carry case design. When the player is in the case, the battery has to be removed. Not really a problem because the batter can be attached when the play is in the case but the battery is out side of the case (make sense?)

When the player is in the case it is secured by the mesh webbing that stops it falling out when mounted in a car with the supplied straps. The problem for me is that you cannot change the DVD without taking the player out of the case to open the DVD opening. Not a big problem but I wanted it for a 6 hour drive and wanted the kids to be able to easily change the disk without having to stop or them try and handle the actual player whilst the car is moving. A new case would probably solve all my issues but while I am within the 16 day returns I prefer to cut my losses and return it. Argos will resell it at £129.99 so this is why I am offering it up for the original price before sending it back. This is £99.99. Postage will probably be around a tenner (guess) to the UK.

If you are interested, let me know ASAP by PM as it will be going bact to Argos by this Friday.

I've had look for the Serafina Car & Singstar for anyone that still needs one, but they don't have either in the 10 stores near where I live (Glasgow), sorry!

Sorry, to ask again, but does anyone live in or near to Newquay since I'm still hoping that someone can pick an E600 that Beedle found for me there... :-*

I've got it reserved until the end of Monday now, but I can re-reserve if needs be, so if anyone can help me out please PM me for the reservation number.

Hi everyone. I've set up the new website at:

http://www.lowesfamily.ndo.co.uk/RO2005/

Obviously hasn't got much on at the moment, but I would welcome any comments, especially with regard to the "Help" page.

Thank you for your hard work Stumpy.

Your advice is very helpful and covers everything I think.

Thanks again Stumpy , the only thing i don't see on the help page is the "say no to 0870" number........ not sure what it is though as i was getting free 0870 calls through my mobile provider.

But i know it can make a big saving to some people.
will try to find it and pm you

Stumpy

Cheers Albalad - that was the one thing that I couldn't find either! I did have a weird number on the previous website, but I'm fairly sure someone said that no longer worked.
