Item cheaper less than a month later?

Options
Bah! I was trying to be organised and save myself going out in the mad Xmas crowds :(

Anyway in November (around 10th i think) i purchased

2 x digital photo frames online from for 93:10p, delievered.

Last week i visit the same site and see they have the same item for 39 pounds each, delivered . They also have an offer of 15% off. This brings the price down to 33:15p

2 x frames = 66:30p, delievered

I paid 2 x frames 93:10

A difference of 22:80.

Now apologies if my maths isn't spot on and also if they added 28.80 to them after i bought them, no i wouldn't have bought them, i'd have shopped elsewhere.

So my question is, is there anything i can do to get the 22.80? Or do i just look at it like i've saved myself a trip out in this weather looking for presents adn pat myself on the back for been so well organised?!

:)

    Quite simple...

    From your post....
    if they added 28.80 to them after i bought them

    Then would you be sending them a cheque for the extra?

    Sometimes it pays to shop last minute.

    Unless you bought from a reputable outlet that's prepared to give you refunds (duplicated birthday presents, etc.??) then not a lot.

    Don't know diddly squat about digital photo frames but am hoping mine are arriving from Avon tomorrow (£20 each - sorry!)

    Whats wrong with a decimal point? since when was 22.8 pence a real world figure, and since when did a colon become used for sums of money?

    22:80p????
    £22.80 or 22.80GBP or 2280p, all would be correct but no, you choose to use format for the time. What time did you buy them 10p on the £11 of November?

    As for your question. No you have no recourse.
    Back by no demand whatsoever.

    Now that was an option, send them back and get a refund; duplicate present reason!!

    Unfortunately i have already loaded them up with 2gb of photos on each. It took me ages too :( So i'm not going to bother with a return.

    I would say that i would not even entertain the idea of emailing them, because why should they give you some money back. It was your choice to buy the items at that price? What if they had gone up to £60 each and they emailed you asking you to pay that extra? What would your response have been?........

    It's 20:00 here, but i paid, 22.80 on 10 11 09, i think at about 22:00 also, it's such a shame they have come down to 33.15 each when i paid 93.10 for them. I'm also at work until 23:59, not 00:00 or 00:01, but 23:59.

    My comment reflects how inane your moan is.
