Anyone bought a large appliance (fnar) lately?

You buy the appliance for £xxx
You pay a delivery charge of £xx
You pay a connection fee of a further £xx
you can pay an additional 'scrap' fee of £xx to take old faithful away

sharp practice or wot? and having paid the first 3 sums, could I get the van men to move my old washer up 6 steps so the council can come and take it away?:o (and there was no option for me to pay for that). Jobsworths, grrr!

And you didnt run this by me first Debs? After all the money i saved you on the bathroom stuff too?
Silly moo ;)

But yeh i agree, lots of retailers and not just the web based ones pull this ploy and it shouldnt be allowed imho, its false advertising to a degree but according to the letter of the law they've done nothing wrong have they :roll:
