Not looking good for Comet who may call in administrators within days leaving more out of work

I went into "Vomit" once for a fridge-freezer. I found just the one for me on display.
"I'm sorry, we haven't got that in stock, but we've got one similar that's £50 more..."
"Can't you sell me this one?"
"We can't sell that - it's for display."
"Cheerio, then."
Several months later, I went in for a telly. I found just the one for me on display.
"I'm sorry, we haven't got that in stock, but we've got one similar that's £50 more..."
"Can't you sell me this one?"
"We can't sell that - it's for display."
"Cheerio, then."
It struck me that they were putting things on display that they had no intention of ever selling, just to hook people in, before offering them a more expensive alternative. so I stopped going in after that.

I went in and asked if they could sell me a kettle.
'Kenwood' they replied?
I said 'Where is he then'?
On a serious note, I dont think ive ever bought anything from there

Years ago when Comet where opposite Vicar Lane, Yup, years ago :(
I went in to buy a car stereo. Sorry we haven't got that in stock.
Can I buy that one, do I get a discount. Yes sir, how about a fiver off the sale price.
Got it for £30, not £35 :)
How times change ;)
