Direct Golf Price reduction a few days after ordering...

Wow - 4 pages :eek:

Anyhow - having stopped reading on page 1 can someone answer whether Dodger got his BOGOF dairy milk, a digestive or found a quid and bought both??!!
 
Amazing.
When did advocating doing the right thing become taking the moral high ground?
When was it universally accepted that this retailer and others rip people off? And that's AFTER they gave him a voucher.
Have you considered where you would buy your golf stuff if retailers like this were not around, and how much you would have to pay if the market was less competitive?
When did it escape our attention that this kind of stuff, plus damages, shoplifting etc (and no, I am not comparing this to shoplifting) has to be factored in to the retailers costs and ends up costing us all?
It amazes me that the very same people who think this is OK will collapse in horror if someone inadvertently caused a ball to move one dimple by moving a twig.
They say golf is a lesson in life.
 
I have a mate who used to be a buyer for a large company. And he very rarely pays the ticket price on anything over £50. His motto is that there's always a deal to be done. I took him shopping when I was after a new fridge and you'd be amazed how easy it is to get some money knocked off the ticket price on most things. I best warn him not to take up golf though.

Thats a totally different situation though. If the op had written a post say he'd haggled the price down £20 I'm sure the response would have been full of pats on the back. I think people just object to him moaning after the event. I mean, fair play to him he got what he wanted. But if gd hadn't reduced ed the price. Would he have been upset and paying £120 if it was reduced by AG a month later?
 
No but it wasn't a month...

I know, I was simply curious what the timescale is? I mean 1 week, 2, 3, 4, 5. If you had bought it for somes Xmas present. Set it aside and saw it reduced to 79 week before would you do it again? I don't think that doing it makes you wrong/bad etc. just wouldn't do it myself. I believe it's the purchaser duty to do due diligence. If you find a product and are willing to pay a price I think you should stick to it. I get 'stung' all the time to the point that I now tend to buy most of hids shoes having paid upto £90 more for a pair of Uganda coz she didn't shop around.

It's the fact it was reduced before it was delivered but less than a week an I might chance my arm but otherwise I suck it up.

Well whilst I still think I would of sucked it up, I am not surprised dg happily met price with you which I guess is fair enough of you hadn't even received the item. All this chatter, with plenty of sympathy shown to DG, their sleeper forum user must be DELIGHTED. Much better than the usual slagging of AG gets.
