Is it a crime for a business to charge more than the manufacturer charges under false claims of providing international warranty?
I went to the electronics store at the Dolphin Mall. I am willing ot provide the name of the store if you choose to do some investigative reporting. I first went to the store to purchase a Samsung Notebook. I left the store feeling sleezy knowing that I had just been hussled. I paid $500 for a Samsung notebook n210 which I have seen on numerous websites for $250-$300. The only difference between the ones I have seen online and the one I was sold is the one I was sold had 2G of memory as opposed to 1G on the websites. The orignial price Jorge quoted me was $650. After leaving the store knowing I had been hustled I deicded I should return the notebook and get my money back. Unfortunately, I looked at the receipt and it said no refunds. Disappointed I decided to go exchange it and get something worth the money an Ipad. When I returned to the store they quoted me $649 for the 32G Ipad which retails for $599 at Best Buy, Tiger Direct, and Apple. I asked why it was $50 more than everywhere else and they told me it was because it was for the international warranty. I asked what do I get with the international warranty I was told I could take it to the Apple store and they would repair or replace it. I asked how long wa sthe warranty good for and they said one year. Basically they are trying to charge $50 for the same factory warranty that Apple already provides. I left the mall and called Apple. Apple verified that there was no such thing as an international warranty. I then had my girlfriend call to get a price on the 32G Ipad. She was quoted $699. I am sure these employees work on commission which motivates them to jack up the prices. I am a soldier in the U.S. Army stationed here at SOUTHCOM. I went into the store in my uniform and left feeling even more disqusted that one of the salesperson actually try to speak ot me about serving.
Good f1 I should cieratnly pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no trouble navigating through all tabs as well as related information ended up being truly simple to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it at all. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or anything, site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Nice task.
Sounds to me like the store was not an authorized dealer for Apple products. If you had so many questions about this store\’s practices, why did you buy from them to begin with?
