Wow, couldnt get over this one...
I was siting down with my dad earlier while he was ordering some Dell P.C's for his school (he wasnted allowed to get eMacs, but was overruled, which infuriated him, as he's head of IT in the school..... damn administration)
But anyway he was ordering three Dell P.C's each at 530....
First of all it was very difficult to re-find the model, at the special price, that he was looking at earlier,which is really annoying because they seem to have quite similar systems but ones on a deal are quite a bit cheaper than the other model... which are the advertised ones, as if they are to attract you the site and then when you cant find it you'll settle for a more expensive one
... then when he found it, it automatically upgraded the screen to a flat panel one, an extra 120, so went through the system setup removed it... then added it to cart,now the last screen where you can select how many models you want (at your pre-selected configuration)... when we put in three and pressed enter, we looked at the new estimated price which was about 2,200 which we thought, thats not right.... 3 multiplied by 530... not gonna be 2,200,... had to go back through the set-up to find that they'd added in a new optional set up fee....
Removed this and got the final prce of 1590
I thought this was very thick, tryin, almost, to con people into buying stuff they dont want by adding it to their cart without them knowing.... It took an hour to get the order sorted out, unlike everytime my dad has ordered anything from the apple store which usually takes a grand total of 5 mins...
Anyone else experienced this or similar experiences?
