> A wierd P800 story
Bookmark topic
I went into my local MPC today (leamington Spa,UK), and asked when the P800 would be out here, and at what price. The woman at the counter very rudely said £700! on contract, in a kind of 'you will not be able to afford that voice' (i am 17). I then said that all the other stores in the town gave me a price of £250 on contract, and quoted someone i saw on here, as saying it was available from
for £499. She then denied this and told me that no-way was that available for that, as standalone it was going to be £1000. I then asked her to phone
and ask them the price. It turned out to be £499. She was still adamant however that she was going to sell it for £700. I said that if she was so sure that she would do this, i would pay her the money right then, as a bet. I have now paid £700, but if it comes out as less (even £699.99) then she has agreed to refund the whole £700 and give me the P800 for free! nice. However, i am slightly FUBAR if it does turn out to be that.... any info?

Did you get that on paper? Did she sign for that? What insurance do you have if she doesnt pay up?

was this the owner of the shop? the woman at the counter should not have any authorisation to do this, unless she was doing the bet personally, but as the last chap said, if it was an oral contract, she can deny the whole thing, you should go in with a friend as a witness (dont act like your together) and just ask her if the bet is still on so you got proof, or perhaps she was just joking around to get you to buy the phone

I am not that stupid i have got the whole thing printed out, with signatures from both of us
was the owner of the shop as well but i think she is onto a losing thing... will probably refuse to give the phone to me though, but if she does that i have the paper

Mate, I think you just got yourself a free P800! Well, that is if she sticks to her word.
