    I'm fairly certain that there are some things on the instore RO lists that aren't on the argos clearance website lists - I spotted a DC08 Dyson on one I looked at yesterday, and there were not on the website at the price listed. Not that I want one I hasten to add - just noticed it as I had been after one a while ago.

    Also, I don't think the wooden train set is on the web site any longer either, and plenty of people saw/got that, including myself.

    I had also came across other items in the old sales sheets (that i posted a few threads back) that was available on the R&R but not showing on the argos clearance homepage!!!!
    Anyway, after the sales girl refusing me the RO list, i asked her to speak to the Manager, she then came back and said that i still couldn't see it and it wasn't available for the public!!!, i then asked her to phone HQ's and confirm this, she went out the back and came in some 5 minutes later with the new excuse 'that everything was wrapped up and being sent back to the main warehouse'!
    Livid, i left , came home and phoned HQ's, i got onto the complaint's dept. and asked them what the Argos company policy was for the public re.RO list etc etc etc, which she logged all the information and was passing onto a Manager whom was going to give me a call back!!!

    5 mins later the phone went and it was the same girl, she said the Manager told me too call you back with his reply 'If you have a problem about this then take it up with Trading Standards'!!!!!

    Hi, could anyone help me. I am after a new printer and noticed Hewlett Packard 7660 Photo Printer.
    Was £74.99 671/9852 now £59.99 on the clearance section of the website. I have found one and reserved it for tomorrow but am now wondering if it is any good? I have tried pricerunner and ciao but I can't seem to match up the printer exactly the ones they have are over £100 and this was only £75 before the clearance it seems. So is this printer worth the money? It only has £15 off.
    Thanks.
  • Hello all
    This is my first post but I've been watching the threads for a while now!
    I'm desperately (hopeless I know!) searching for the Lego Shrieking shack for my young'un (372/2316 ) and have been for weeks now. I'd gladly pay postage if anyone can help out.
    I've got Hogwarts Microset reserved at my local (essex) if anyone is looking!
    Thanks awfully...
    (I'll get a witty signature sorted out at some point) - maybe I should make that my sig??

    The R.O. List is an internal document for the use of stores, not for the general public. There are reasons why the public aren't allowed to see them, its partly for security reasons. Most of the R.O. stock is listed on the website or in the flyers anyway.

    The whole idea of the board is to help each other find items - not to get extra to sell on EBAY!! - you could offer to sell it to someone on this board who is after one

    I was only joking about ebay,they are for the 2 dell pc,s i got(£183 systems),delivery monday, which have 15" crt monotors,so if any one is interested in 2 new dell monotors they are up for grabs at a resonable price.

    Compulsive shopper you have a pm.
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

Supposed to be taking her out for Sunday lunch, so if we end up going to The Castle (yum yum) I might be able to get it to you on Sunday!"

    Just wanted to say thanks BungleGirl - you are a star! I will wait to hear from you to sort out when you want to do the swap! Sunday lunch at the Castle sounds like a good idea - this is one of our favourite locals! Anyway, many thanks again and will speak soon!

    :( Checked Cardiff & surrounding stores, nothing in stock I'm afraid. Hope you manage to find one.
