Hi Robert, That's terrible. I'm glad I didn't have to go through that. Hopefully I never will. I toyed with the idea of buying online, but I really don't think I ever will. Anyway, today I went up to PC World. But since Staples is right beside PC World I decided to try them. They had all kinds of products out on the shelves so as you can have a feel at them. They also had many more models to choose from , so I decided to by from Staples. Just to make sure, I went into PC world again. There was only a few printers on the shelves, not much, and they were more expensive than Staples. An HP. PSC 1510 was 85 pounds, whereas An HP. PSC 1610 in Staples was ten pounds less. A better model... And cheaper. So I got myself a Printer Scanner and Copier for les than PC World. Peter From beautiful Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde.

Hi Peter, Well, after a lot of fiddling I managed to place an order for a printer from PC World just before Christmas and actually got a confirmation with instructions to print a copy. I couldn't do that because I didn't have a printer. When I hadn't received the goods two weeks later, I wrote to PC World and got an immediate acknowledgement informing me my email had been passed on to the relevant department. A few days later I got an email telling me the printer was still in the shopping basket and the order hadn't been completed. I was told to go back into my account to complete the order but when I tried, was refused admission. At that point I decided saving a few quid wasn't worth all the hassle. I did however write back to the lady in Customer Services pointing out that in my view the web site was not particularly blind friendly. Suffice it to say, I haven't received a reply to that one. Robert. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Logue" <peterlogue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 4:53 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: PC World. > PC World...
