| 1156137 | 2010-11-24 22:26:00 | Whenever I go into NL, there really is not many customers . Things are expensive . Not much selection . Each shelf area is quite narrow whereas HN's are much wider (longer) . The last item we bought was a $10 2GB USB thumb drive :D In Northwood Ch Ch, the same applies,I never go into NL . |

| 1156138 | 2010-11-24 22:39:00 | Recent experience with NL - I contacted the Rangiora store to buy something they had on their website . Chummy said "we don't have any in stock" . Me: "Um, could you get one in from the manufacturer, who is in ChCh?" Chummy: "Well, you could phone the manufacturer and find out if they have that model in stock . If they do, we could order it in for you' . Me: "Goodbye . " Phoned HN in ChCh: Chummy2 . "We don't have any in stock . I will just phone the manufacturer and see if we can get one in for you - the factory may have been damaged by the earthquake, but I will try . I will get back to you asap" . Me: Thank you, here is my name and phone number . " Chummy2 an hour or so later: "They have them in stock, and one will be in here tomorrow for you to pick up . " Me: "Thank you, how much?" Chummy 2: "$X" . Me: "Oh, NL have it on their website for "$<X . " Chummy2: "Oh, we can't have that, you can have it for the NL price . " And when I went in to pick it up, he not only sold it to me for $10 less than the NL price I quoted him, he also carried it to my car and placed it in the boot . Nuff said . |

| 1156140 | 2010-11-24 23:12:00 | I have spent a few thousands of $ with NL over the last 3 or 4 years and have had no problems. They even carried stuff out to my car. I think it depends on the managers attitude at different branches as to how you are treated by there sales people. :) |

| 1156146 | 2010-11-26 04:27:00 | Walking around Nelson yesterday I was surprised at how few empty shops there were, I thought things were a lot worse listening to what's being said, mind you I wasn't spending due to reduced income from not working | gary67 (56) | ||
