I must admit, I don't like Harvey normans service. Legally, if they have a price match policy, then they have to stand by that policy, and the Commerce Commission would probably be interested if they didn't. |

My 360 (made in 2005) just got the RROD (on xmas day :() but man did it last well. Still under the 3 year warranty tho. Also, just one thing with DSE, they tried to sell us their 3 yr warranty and I told the guy MS extended it from 1 yr to 3 and all the guys there were like "first of heard of that". Be careful, they'll say anything to get you to buy their extended warranty ($60) Sure it's been mentioned here before, but it bears repeating - extended warranties are a load of old cobblers. Everything they provide is already covered under the Consumer Guarantees Act. |

A lot of price match guarantees dont apply to sale items or things on special. |

| 732920 | 2008-12-29 05:23:00 | If Billy does read this can you please tell me what are the laws around Closing Down sales? Or where I can find out. There is a furniture shop here that has been advertising as 'Closing Down' for about 6 months now, could be longer. Just how long can they go on for? I can understand that they could be just trying to get rid of existing stock but I have been in there a few times and the stock levels don't seem to be going down, with new stuff showing up in the show room as well. |

| 732921 | 2008-12-29 07:03:00 | Toshiba 42" LCD TV $1199. Buy a game any platform get one free to same or lesser value. Just to name a couple of things in the sale. :) Actually Harvey Norman's had 42" Toshiba TV LCD's at $999 over the weekend, no idea if its the same model but still def pays to still shop around. |
