    Price Match

    Im gonna start this thread with a apologie to the scan guys as you must get asked this all the time but id like to know if scan would be prepared to do a price match on a Logitech MX Revolution Mouse:

    Scan: http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?WebProductId=480704 = £52.76

    Overclockers: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=KB-082-LG = £44.64

    Thanks Guys!

    Re: Price Match

    Is there a list of shops you price match to, or can a submission be made for/against any retailer (assuming they have the item in stock)?

    We don't pricematch - but if you request an offer, then the Offers team will probably take other people into account.

    Re: Price Match

    One thing to remember as well is that Scan offer free shipping which can cost a lot at other retailers (depending on who you use). It would be nice though if there was a way to report big price differences to Scan just to see if their pricing is out of date.

    Thanks for the info, i try to use scan as much as i possibly can as im only in warrington and postage isnt a factor then (Please i get that instant gratification! ), but the link ive been pointed to is significantly cheaper (£39) and offers free postage. It is also a large company and may be the reason its so cheap.

    Again cheers.
