Currys price Match 28 January at 8:47AM in Praise, vent & warnings 2 replies 122 views

just tried to do a price match with Currys and another online retailer on a £2k purchase. Was rejected as the other retailer offers "Exclusive discounts" (whatever that means). Currys are clearly promoting the impression that they are offering the lowest prices when they are clearly not. In this case the same item is 10% cheaper elsewhere. Please beware of the misleading claims.

I'd buy from the other retailer anyway!
