    just to make people aware that meteor claim to be cheaper to buy your phone online I decided to buy the htc wildfire but as its only available in white online priced at 219.99 I went to a store where it was priced at 199.99 (not in stock though) the website claims a discount of 10 euro for buying online as they say this phone is 229.99 instore so just be aware of this when you buy online from them id always check instore first

    They just haven't changed the price in that store. It is 229e in store, there's just been no stock since before Christmas.

    im sure it was a promotion in the shop. Some of the times some shops run their own promotions in order to boost certain phone sales at a small loss in order to sell more.

    Im not sure the whole policy of shop and website is tied down in any way. Its nothing major anyway. Bit of common sense would tell ya to shop around for prices first and explore your options

    whatever way you look at it the Wildfire is a rip off

    thats not the way most people look at it. Its quite a popular low end Android phone.

    The problem is that people pay the 200-250 for it and expect to get TOP PERFORMANCE for half the price.
