Hope the boss doesn't arrive in the next hour cause this is long...
 
Yesterday we went up to Games Stop to get Aoife her nintendo ds. They didn't have the ds with nintendogs package for 145 euro and to buy the ds and the game seperately was 175 so I said no to aoife.
 
We went into the supermarket and picked up a few bits and aoife had such a face on her and I'm not in the business of making the kids unhappy and it being her money and all I said she could buy the ds and mario package for 145 and the nintendogs game for 45 euro. She was delighted...
 
So off we pop to the shop and get the two things and yir man behind the counter says.. 195 euro...
 
How much is that says I?
 
150 euro
 
I was only in here 20 minutes ago and that girl said it was 145
 
oh.. it's not, it's 150
 
Well I'm sorry but she said it was 145 so I'm not paying 150
 
I can't sell it to you at 145 cause it's 150
 
It's scanning at 150 but I was told it was 145 so you have to sell it to me for 145
 
no I don't
 
Have you any idea about consumer affairs? She said it was 145 so you have to sell it to me for 145

I dont have to sell you anything
 
oh and on what grounds are you refusing to sell me this?
 
Will you get on to someone who knows about these things?
 
Are you implying I don't know about consumer affairs?
 
Yes! Cause if you knew them you'd know you'd have to sell me that for 145
 
I can't the till won't let me and my float will be down 5 euro
 
You can, you can put a note in your till explaining why your till is down
 
hang on a sec...
 
(off he goes, I'm sure to put a curse on me! then comes back with a card thingy, scans it and it gives 5 euro off!) Easy peasy lemon fucking squeezy!
 
I know it was only a fiver but ffs.... they should have had the game Aoife wanted in the first place in....

What was pissing me off was at the time I was buying Aoife's stuff this little girl had bought a sims attachment not realising she needed the sims one game and the bitch wouldn't give her a refund on the grounds that at age 9/10 she should have known it wouldn't work without sims one!

There was steam coming out of my ears just listening to the cow!  They have just no concept of customer service. I felt sorry for the poor child....

Lorr, last time I bought something from them they sold me the wrong thing. I complained via email in December 2004 and I'm still waiting for a reply!  It didn't really matter cause Aoife lost it 4 months later!
