Will scan price match a product if i can show them one that is miles cheaper than any competitor?
nah they don't, just buy it from the cheaper shop... but post a link to the item so they can check if its a misprice
Scan dont sell the exact product, that being the pc2 6400 reaperX series 2x2GB ram by OCZ, which i can get for £35 but elsewhere is about £77 excluding vat.
At that price I'd get it elsewhwere, even including carriage that'scheap

Well good luck. But that is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
The PC World one is almost certain to be a clearance. The memory costs around that, if not more from the people who supply the retailers.
Scan don't pricematch.
Their prices are the cheapest alot of the time.
They will never sell that RAM(You can read a thread about it)
They have a problem with ocz im assuming, care to link me?
No, they just have an affiliation or partnership with Corsair
I can't find the exact posts but search for stuff like geil ram or gskill ram or crucial ram in this subforum and you can find them. Or check the Recommend products at Scan thread but you'll have to sift through.
I think Scan should seriously think about introducing a PriceMatch scheme (for example like the one at JohnLewis). It would be great for business. I’d prefer to buy all my electronic stuff from Scan, but alas they don’t always have the cheapest (yes yes, I know price is updated accordingly when the purchase a new batch, be it more or less from the previous). It would be great if I could get a PrimeMatch say against eBuyer, but still buy it from Scan. They would get my money, and I would get the exceptional service (not saying eBuyer sucks) and my product.
@moogle: That signature must have taken you ages! LOL
If you want a specific offer - why not use the request link at the top of TodayOnly like so many Hexus users do
As for OCZ - we currently have no plans to stock this memory - but we do already stock several other brands
It did
It's only allowed on Hexus due to the amount of characters in the sig
PS - I'm very proud of it

It is true generally we do not offer a price match scheme and have no inclination to implement such a scheme for various reasons.
However, we do check and compare our pricing with our closest competition who hold actual stock and rather than simply cutting our prices, ( which is a bad business practice) through a price match scheme, we work with the suppliers and wherever possible directly with the manufacturer to reduce our buy price and pass the saving onto the customer so we are offering lower prices but without reducing our already low margin.
Service is also now becoming more important to the Customer in the decision process of where to buy their kit, we are not and will never always be the cheapest but we are confident more often than not we offer the best Customer service.

Please PM me with the LN of the item in question so I can look into the pricing for you.
Best Regards

No company, even the ones that do advertise matching, will ever price match a special offer or clearance offer... Always excluded in the small prints.
