I was looking to buy a canon a640 here (http://www.thedvdforums.com/jump2.php?url=http://clkuk.tradedoubler.com/click?p(20266)a(60823)g(634508)url(http://www.cameras2u.com/products/details.cfm?product=128B001AA)) yesterday and it was £200, I got side tracked before I put the order through. I went to buy it today & they have put the price up by £50. I really think this is a joke. I have purchased camera equipment from them before however from now on I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Prices go up as well as come down you know....no doubt had you paid £200 and noticed that it had gone up the next day you would be going :clap: :clap:

splobber, its not the point of it going up. What really takes the mick is that they have put it up by 25%.

[splobber]

What if they reduced it by 50%?

[jjwf]

I have bought pc stuff, camera gear, plasma's etc when they first come out and have hardly ever noticed prices going up (unless they are in very short supply) always going down. If the camera had gone down I would have just taken the fact as these things happen.

[splobber]

What about all the bargains that appear in the bargin forum and then double in price at the end of the promotion then?

Price was going up and down like a yoyo, by 50-60%!!

Do you think it went up by £50 because there's a £60 cashback offer?

Yep I sure do & I think its totally wrong.

Even if they are the cheapest? that makes no sense, you are angry because you missed a better price, who wouldn't be, but cameras2u have done nothing wrong.

It's the "ILL NEVAH SHOP WITH TEH SUB HUMAN SKUM" comments that always get me laughing as the minute this store has an uber bargain or price cock up, jjwf will be in there like a rat up a drainpipe.

I can't believe you are even bothering to argue about this - probably THE most pointless thread I have ever read....

What's happened to them? All they seem to have on their site now is 5 refurbished cameras.

I'd guess that they were often only used to price-match against Jessops. As they were owned by Jessops, they probably were losing a lot of cash. So now it's probably the jessops returns being sold.
