Black Friday

[Blue Duck]

Anyone seen any good deals on stuff that you might actually want?

Not stuff that was previously at a higher price or things that might be useful but will end up in the shed for 20 years!

Good deals, riots & bad deals please post any links here.

Denmans doing an Armeg 5 piece torque screwdriver set for £55 pre vat, itll never get used of course :slap

I've not seen anything worth having yet, most (reasonably mediocre) discounts are for the items that were overpriced and cheaper elsewhere in the first place.

 

[Blue Duck]

I noted the wording on the bottom of the currys pc world advert "items previously sold at higher price".

what a bump.

 

[Lurch]

Arco have 25% off everything and a few other deals on today, best I've seen so far.

 

[ProDave]

LED hut advertising 30% off everything

 

[HandySparks]

FFX have some additional reductions on some already good prices.

Got this through today:

FLUKE THERMAL IMAGING HAND HELD CAMERA   Model: Ti32    £3,495 (or near offer)

 

[SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH]

LED hut advertising 30% off everything

Still works out cheaper on the trade site and they 'appear' to be out of stock of a lot of items. Cynical me thinks it will all be back in stock tommorow.

 

[Blue Duck]

look at some deals on the ffx site. some things slightly cheaper like 10% and some more expensive by about 10% so I have to agree with slipper that this is a cynical marketing exercise rather than and acual sale!

There warranty isn't very good (and they aren't forum sponsors anymore) - i had a load of candle leds from them (chinese rubbish) and when they ALL blew up in 6 months i had to send them all back to at my own cost - it was a right old performance to make a claim - was cheaper to throw them in the bin and buy better from elsewhere - never used them again

So a bad company can buy your silence by means of sponsorship can it?

Not enough de-scoobs. Hehe.

Or, when you need/want something from CPC you start dredging the offers catalogue to see what else you 'need',  ?

Now it's free postage for any size order I no longer feel the need to bulk up an order to get over the free postage value.

I have had the opposite from them. A quick on line chat or email and replacements sent out. They do not do that with lamps though, send back faulty ones and they replace and refund postage.

Only worry i have is a shop we fitted out with their 600x600 panels has had 2 drivers fail in 6 months & a call recieved this week some more not working. Also, not their fault, they are in Jersey and although a UK number international call rates.
