Can anyone help me with this one. Lets use XBOX GAMES as example.
How comes some games in the top 10 chart are SEL at £39.96 and others at £39.97. Ive had a few games on R'R this week but they have bn labelled at £34.** or £36.** so i knew it was a sure thing.
I was tempted to try one of the games ending with SEL .96 but didnt risk it. Anyone got any thoughts on this one?

My vote is stupidity. Possibly incompetence.

I tried the xbox tonight and they said it wasnt a miss price as i paid the correct amount even though the saving is wrong, they would defo not be r and r'ing the item anymore, the managers have clearly been told what to say, the cardboard stand is still out in the store with the error on but the lady wouldnt budge

got a full refund though

Dunno. Marketing rubbish imo - that penny is all important :rolleyes:

PES 6 is now scanning at £39. so that would make the bundle correctly priced - but they haven't changed the sels or the chart for PES 6 £37 in all stores.

I posted a guide on games a few pages back. Have a read of that

£29.97/£32.97 with newish games are the easiest. Or like Splinter cell for xbox claimed by many is £37.97/£39.97

The 96/97p thing is common with books also. I've not found hardly any as they always scan at lower price
When I was an R&R virgin i got a few gameboy games £14.94/£14.99 but no luck with 96/97
