    It says DVD players from £59.99. It doesn't say that player is £59.99.

    But they are still a joke. Have a look in their bulbs section, bulb prices advertised in both Sterling & Euro, I was looking for a particular bulb which was marked £6.99 sterling or €14!!:mad:

    Got same bulb in my local autofactors for €3.99

    Even still Makaveli. They are lurring folks into searching & looking out for a fancy motorised top of the range dvd player out of all there 25+ models to choose from - The one shown is a flip out motorised built in dash one priced from 59£ but there cheapest one is 159£ Refurbished 2nd hand, and the one pictured is 649£ they are just a bit to smart. if u want somethig cheap that sticks to the car head rest Aldi & lidl sell these many times a year for cheap with 3 year warrenty i find those a great bargin


    happy christmas all

    Yeh I hate Halfords Marketing tactics. The recent, "up to 50% of ALL sat navs", like that makes no sense, In reality only one crappy sat nav was 50% off, how they can get away with saying up to 50% of All sat navs is beyond me. If that's the case, every shop could have up to 100% of everything in store and just give one item away for free


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭samhail


    Thanks for the replies !
    didnt bother getting anything.
    I wont change the tag to nonsense as there are some deals on there.
    after xmas day !

    If someone else things i should or a mod let me know.

    Because they say "Up to 50% off all Sat navs", if, say, they sell 20 different Sat navs and discount one by 50% and the other 19 by 0.05%, then they can truly say they are giving up to 50% off all Sat navs.
    "50% off selected products", is another one. They only have to select one product to be within the description.
