PC world

PCWorld staff are not on commission, they get team bonus (similar thing, but spread evenly over the staff).

I was on commission when I worked at PC Shed (although not much, as I wasn't a very good salesman and I couldn't face selling people overpriced PCs and Coverplan. Mind you, that was almost 10 years ago now...

Ironically, PC World Business is one of the best suppliers I have ever used. Infact theyre my main supplier now. I think they must transfer anyone with a bit of talent, to the Business wing, that just leaves the numpty's and eejiits to work in the normal stores

Hmmm, business? Is that the little side bit cornered off in shops?

When you go to pay they always ask "is this for personal or business use?" - is that to get a VAT receipt or something?

Dunno - I don't use the "business centre's" in store, I order on the web.

What was laughable about my PC World visit the other day was, we visited the "Bargain Zone" as they liked to call it, there were loads of products strewn onto the shelve with huge labels on stating the product name, and why it was in the bargain zone. Except they never bothered to print the price. Me and my mate joked if they were free to take or something.

Its the same at my local PC World. You're not missing out on much because there is usually nothing worthwhile and almost always priced unreasonably.

Look mean and threatening. Most of their security are lard arses who wouldnt want a fight. Ive NEVER had a problem getting a refund.. well anywhere. Heh.

If you do look meek however, they will try to take the mick.
