    online is cheapest and it delivered, and has warranty, do a tour, bet there is not a tenner between any shop

    Rubbish you can pick up bargains just as well if you shop around - Tesco doing some good bargains in LCD's at the minute and all the big chains (Argos, Currys, Dixons, Harvey Normans) will always have the odd bargain.

    Kielys and Finucanes will haggle as will Clancy's on O'Connell Street

    Theres a place in South Hill you can get second hand and almost new, real cheap.

    You could go online too?

    FSV (I think) next to Gleesons Sports Store, Upper William St. If required they will deliver and set it up and remove the packaging.

    Most of the staff would have come from Savins.

    sorry for late reply. thanks for your help will go to Upper William St as after sales service is very important for me since I have no clue in electronics.

    - Wow, I was just thinking the same thing when I read the post before yours.....

    But do you all remember the old man that used to sit at the little table in Savins scowling at all the customers ??? I think he was the owner - fcuking surreal; he used to just sit on his piles all day long giving the public filthy looks - don't know why the public were in there in the first place [me included] - overpriced kit, peddaled by w@nkers, with the owner glaring insanely at the helm :eek:

    p.s. And every CD in there seemed to have a man in an aran-wool-suit toting a Banjo on the cover - fact.

    p.p.s. I've just remembered the guy that used to [gone now?] run "Mr. Music Man" [I think it was called?] was O'Connell Mall and then across from the Clarion; a fuzzy looking Canadian freak - now he knew how to treat a customer with contempt, disdain, impatience and the ultimate in ignorance.....tosser.

    The old guy you are thinking of in Savins was the father of the owner if memory serves right. I used to love going up to him and asking questions about stuff, only for him to go "I don't work here", then to ask him why was he sitting behind the counter if he did not work there.

    I got a great deal on a TV in there in the January sales. Staff were very friendly - no lessons on life thrown in though.... might ring them and see if I can get it over the phone :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,905 ✭✭✭steveon


    I do alot of installs for FSV and I will inform them of the many positive comments I have just read here on the site to which I'm sure they will be delighted to read for themselves as they work very hard and interact positively with their customers for continued custom which is very important to them..

    cheers

    I think it was the Newmarket branch that was sold. It's still there in Clare Street opposite the EMO garage.

    He closed the one in Newmarket and sold the one in Ennis (which has since gone bust).

    Not sure where you get your information. The shop in Ennis was sold to the Clare People who were there for a few years and they have now re-located to a bigger premises.


  • Registered Users Posts: 520 ✭✭✭5h4mr0(k


    He sold the shop & business in Ennis to a guy from Clarecastle (Colleran I think was his name). To the best of my knowledge that business has now gone bust - it doesn't appear in the telephone book anyway.

    If it has gone bust that would be a good reason to sell the shop - unless your very sentimental ;)
