PC World Ireland - Blanchardstown and Limerick

Filed under: Ireland — Ro @ 12:00

This post is really to warn people shopping for computers in PC World to be careful. This is a blog, and I fully expect it to rank Well for the terms: PC World Ireland and PC World Blanchardstown…

I bought a computer from PC World Blanchardstown last year. I wanted the computer and it had the specs I needed; plus the thought of having a brand new computer really appealed to me. But I didn’t get a brand new computer, I got a display model. Thats right, I wanted a new computer, I was told they had it in stock, and I was expecting to get same, I had even paid for it, but I didn’t get it. I was told that they didn’t have any new machines left… a contradiction to what my sales guy had told me.

I went back to them a week later becasue one of the cd drives made a lot of noise and I wasn’t happy. They told me I could bring it back (which was fair enough) or they would offer me a e50 gift voucher. I took the voucher and decided to live with my display model and that is fine with me. They offered me something and I took it. Full Stop. I am not complaining about my result, just telling people to be very careful with what they think they are buying in PC World, and actually what they get…
