Nokia N810 Ordering
April 26th, 2008 | Filed under Technology.
I’ve ordered my new, shiny N810. Sure it’s cost me £289 quid, which is quite a lot for a portable web browser doodad, but I’ve sold my N800 to my cousin for £100, making it £189. And where did I order this marvel of the modern age from?
Why, PC World in Leeds of course. PC World, that shop of cheap consumer electronics at out of this world prices. It’s partially “must have it now” tech lust, but also the result of ten minutes Internet Shopping. If you use Froogle there are some sites charging a mere £229 for the Nokia N810… but that’s a lie! a dirty lie! It’s the price without VAT and without delivery.
Curiously the cheapest place on the web ends up costing £8 less than PC World by the time you’ve added VAT and £15 delivery. It’s really not worth saving £8 and encountering the hassle of chasing couriers after work to claim new devices from them.
Let’s hope PC World Leeds is just as bored as the ones in Barnsley were. “Here’s your laptop mate, see you”.
