    I assume your confirming my suspicion that the OP has an IPS display, got what he paid for, found something on a 3rd party website that was incorrect .. decided that he was an expert in screen technology and could tell the difference and actually he can't?

    You know, it's not exactly easy to mistake a TN panel for an IPS Panel, the difference in viewing nagles is huge.

    Seems like you don't know what an IPS display is, since it's very hard for someone who knows what one is to not know the difference.

    You've missed the main point of your whole post, OP did not read the spec and then order that computer which was advertised FOR SALE ONLINE, instead the OP walked in and bought one off the shelf. We can only presume that the OP had time to check the spec before purchasing.
    The op checked the spec by asking was it the same as the online one, he was told it was. Therefore the shop sold him something that was not as they described it. He is right to look for a remedy.

    Goods must be as described - the buyer must not be mislead into buying something by the description of goods or services given orally by a salesperson or an advertisement.

    Their website is an advertisement and the advertisement contents were verified orally by the salesperson. Its an open and shut case as far as I can see.

    The only thing that is confusing is why they were selling the lower spec version for the same price - but clearly the shop are in the wrong here.
