[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 534221, member: 175057"] Two weeks ago, one of my customers urgently needed a Freesat box, but the only one she could find was an HD box at £147 or thereabouts from Comet, due to the urgency of the matter, she reluctantly had to buy. A couple of days ago she needed two more and went to Comet to get them, the salesman there showed her the HD box and when told that she didn't want an HD box, but the standard box, he told here that this was the only Freesat box available and it was £147 because unlike Sky, this was a "one off" payment. She went back (after speaking to me on the phone) and pushed him about the cheaper box, he then reluctantly told her that they had been available, but there was no stock, as it had been recalled. I wonder how many people have been conned into buying an HD box when all they really needed was to wait and buy a standard one? PS. She actually managed to get a couple from Argos in the end, but only after phoning me and asking if the cheaper box really existed.:) [/QUOTE]
