Great I thought so I went down to Comet and they said you'd have to order it. There's no chance they'd get it in store they said. So I phoned the major Comet place number thingy and they said they weren't available to order yet. Call back in a week or so.
A few days later, I told my mum to pick me up some minidiscs from Comet (same store as before) and what does she see? Yup, the DVD system I want. They suddenly got some in stock. Anyway, she bought it (last one)and took it home. Unfortuantely, when I got home I noticed on the box it said "5x30 watts and 1x50 watt sub-woofer". Now unless my maths is terrible that only adds up to 200, not 300.
So I called up the major comety hotline thing again and asked whether I had the wrong one or whether both their PC in the store and the paper were wrong. Their answer? "Nah, sorry mate. Typo."
!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well cheers "mate" and thanks for the "help"! Comet and Currys are the same! Everyone is so goddamm incompetant!! It took the guy long enough to understand what I meant by 'watts'!
But I'm keeping it all the same. Still the best deal I've found, even if they are a bunch of retards.
Now he says go read his review. Episode 2 DVD. He's a fool. As you won't.
The guy said I wouldn't find a better deal at this price. I waved my 50 pound off Argos voucher under his nose.
Then.....when I was leaving the store, he jumped on my back. I swivelled round as I was falling and caught his arms. I threw him over me and flipped to my feet but when I turned he was gone. Then about 9 staff members leapt at me and I had to kick a tower of boxes into them. 7 of them were knocked out of the air but 2 of them landed on me and took me to the floor. The first guy was no trouble and I just snapped his neck like that. The second was hugely fat and it took me some time before I wormed free. Then I grabbed the nearest machine gun and shot them all down. It was great fun. MWAHAHAHAHAH!
Hmmm....that last paragraph may have been a dream.

Technically they can't have a get-out clause, under he Unfair Contract Terms Act. Unless they've developed something particularly ingenious.
I'm gonna go for that LG one in Argos. 280 quid for 180 watts. I'm sure that means better picture quality. I get 50 quid off it too so that brings it down to just 230.
*Sniggers in corner*
That's why I got my PC from Toys R Us, and it works like a charm...and has a PII 150mhz processor, 32MB of RAM and a 2gig hard drive.
Or some't like that.
