    Hi,
    I went to pick up a printer today from pcsystems.ie in wilton Cork. I checked the price online before I went in. However, when I got there I was told the the price was more than what was on the website. I had no option but to pay the difference because I was exchanging a printer I had bought yesterday for one with a scanner on it. The salesman told me that the website had been updated yesterday to reflect the new price and he showed me the price on his screen. However, when i go to look at the HP laserjet on any of my computers (even ones that have never been to pcsystems.ie before) I see the "old price". I am a bit annoyed because I have quoted the customer for the printer and they paid me in advance. No recourse on this?

    None at all. Several places charge differently online than in shops (less overheads etc). Even if used as advertised, they're still under no obligation to sell it to you at that price

    Sorry

    Prices can vary alot, mobile phone companys generally have phones cheaper online then in store,

    Its the chance you take when you buy instone compared to on-line, overheads are higher etc
