    argosclearance are a scam.
    Here is why.

    In december 2010 I bough a pallet of laptops thinking I would make a profit.
    Was I wrong or what, they scammed me.

    7 laptops were stolen from the pallet RRP £3500 stolen. I never got my money back.
    So I would advise you to keep away from argos clearance.

    Argos Clearance are certainly not a scam.

    When/ where/ how were laptops stolen from the pallet? What did Argos say when you told them of this 'scam'?
    Gone ... or have I?

    They have completed their investigation and have not come up with a solution, they also refused to supply serial numbers for the lost/stolen laptops to be passed on to the Police.

    I am now £3500 worse of thanks to argos or argosclearance or maybe I should say argosscammers.co.uk

    £3500 was only the RRP and not the price you actually paid so you aren't £3500 worse off. You wouldn't be able to sell them for the RRP which are nonsense figures quoted by the manufacturers/retailers to fool customers into think they are saving money.

    I presume you paid via credit card? so you should be able to take it up with them to get your money back.
  • Its lucrative if only you know so I'd certainly classify that as 'fools gold'.
