Price reduction 6-18 hours after purchase

Good Morning, I purchased a Laptop from Argos on Friday, on Saturday when on the internet it flashed up that the same laptop was £125 cheaper, I have spoken to Argos's customer service via Twitter who advise that I need to go in store and speak to the manager. What are the chances of me getting a refund for the difference ???

    Would you go back and pay the difference if it was higher?

    Best you can do is ask (they will probably say yes) but be aware they are well within their rights to say no.

    Bonus went back to Argos and have had a refund for the difference, new catalogue was released Saturday. Hence the price change.

    Good result-but they were under no obligation to do so. JL are the only retailer I know of that offers this on a permanent basis?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    It makes a change to see a poster return here to update the outcome of their thread, so thanks for that!
