Hi guys
I was wondering if anyone could help me? I am looking a buying a fridge / freezer from Argos !
They have the same product listed twice with but with a £30 difference !
It's exactly the same item down to the product code! I have tried to buy the cheaper one ! Who wouldn't ??? But its out of stock ! So I have rung customer services & they said nothing they can do as out of stock of the cheaper ones , but in stock of the dearer ones !!
I am confused !
Can they do this ?
Many thanks in advance ,

It may be that the dearer price includes installation where as the cheaper priced one does not.0

Argos seem to do this quite a lot and I think it all comes down to where the item is being delivered from and the speed of delivery and whether the delivery charge is included or not.
Below is one example of this
£199 with 7 day delivery (delivery charge extra)

£220 with 3 day delivery (delivery charge inclusive)
