| 251786 | 2004-07-13 03:34:00 | I feel the need to defend myself. I got his info from someone who worked there - and he ain't one to lie. However, I didn't mean the WHOLE barcode, i meant the last few digits. And having gone in there and seen a few, it's understandable. And as far as the Harvey Norman near me, they put their own barcodes on. |

| 251789 | 2004-07-13 05:03:00 | Of course you can't return something just because you don't like it/changed your mind. As Graham has also said, returns & money back guarantees only apply if there is something wrong with the product, or the seller advised/warranted that it would do something that you later find it can't, It is up to the buyer to chose wisely, unless a trial period is agreed. It's a bit like marriage really! Cheers Billy 8-{) |

The guy is only taking $50 off its store demo system!?! I would have thought they would sell under cost price!?! It was the last one thats why... |

| 251791 | 2004-07-14 02:04:00 | By the way, the system is a Acer Aspire RC500 Entertainment Centre. It's a Celeron 2.6Ghz, 256DDR Ram, 40GB, CD-RW, etc. Yes! The person is aware that it is a Celeron -he does nothing more than type and surf the net and occasional music. The reason why I have helped him choose this system is because he wanted a 'brand' PC (god knows why!) and an inbuilt TV capture card if possible -all without breaking the bank. |

| 251792 | 2004-07-14 02:48:00 | I wouldn't touch a DSE computer with a 20m pole. How much are they asking for that machine? Build him one yourself ~sy~ you have the skills and you'll save a lot of $. |

As mentioned, he wants a brand PC (e.g. Acer, HP, Compaq, etc.) DSE is just selling it, it's an Acer Aspire RC500 -its been off the DSE online catalogue since yesterday. They want $800 for a shop demo, from the orgininal clearance price of $850 for everything but the monitor. |

| 251794 | 2004-07-14 04:46:00 | Where was I seeing something similiar. Bond n Bond brochure perhaps. Similiar spec computer (Dell) with monitor, speakers, kb and mouse for <$900 even cheaper than those warehouse PCs. | kiki (762) | ||
| 251795 | 2004-07-14 04:50:00 | really!?! Can't be Bond and Bond. They don't deal with Dell (or I don't remember them doing so anyway). I would be really interested to find out. By the way, does that include GST? | ~~~~~ s y ~~~~~ (2054) | ||
