You will never stop traders discounting themselves downwards in a spiral, many advertising on the net advertise low. When you do that, you cant go back up, and the next trader that reads that price, advertises at an even lower rate. These discount turkeys dont need to give you any service, they are just an intermediary between you and the importer. They have done nothing for their money, and keep prices low for other traders that offer service. Service costs money. Did you contact the Crema advertiser, advise you are serious about a purchase and not a tire kicker, and would be prepared to give him your credit card number immediately if he would match the lower price Did the Crema advertisere give you any advice (service) within this forum, did the Melbourne discounter give you any "service"? one other trader in here has given a bucket load of advice, has anyone thought to ask him whether he can supply the item of your choice? Yes the internet is a wonderful thing... G. choking on morning soy piccolo latte served in a glass on a saucer with doilie....spare me please.
