Hi Gorgie, i Understand you completely. But in an earlier post ... "Re: comet UMC TV dead after a week manufacturer wont fix I was told this a couple of years ago by a Comet repair man that they buy some items from the manufacturer without a warrantee so they can get them a little bit cheaper. Comet then handles all the repairs and costs. Not good if you buy something from a retailer that then goes bust. I have a feeling a lot of people are going to be stung by this." How do we know this is not the case with all the products they have purchased... As they need to buy cheep 30%-50% off (Without warranty from the manufacturer for example) and sell cheep 30%-50% off (to bring in trade) making them the same profits. food for thought. Its a sinking ship and want nothing to do with them, to be honest and i am sure that most people feel the same way. if you are nieve enough to by something from an Ebay store based in China for example, cos its cheep. When you get it and doesnt work you say "oh well its a risk I took." Its the same thing with comet. they tell you buy a product from them, if it goes wrong its someone elses problem, with my many years of having grey top, this always means the problem is yours! If your lucky to purchase a product thats 30-50%% off, because the shop is closing down and you have it for 10 years then you got a good deal. If another guy buys the same product and it goes wrong they took the risk but this time it didnt pay off. SO ACCEPT IT or Get a refund on the credit card. If something goes wrong at least youre able to get on with your life i hope you agree!

I also had a similar issue with comet, i cant beleive that its possible i can go to a shop buy something and then return it after 2 days and not get your money back. Please be aware, if you return a TV or anything, you will be a creditor... "Your rights. Buy faulty goods, and by law, your rights are with the shop you bought them from, not the manufacturer. It's the retailer which should provide the 'remedy', whether that be a refund, repair or replacement. However, accountancy firm KPMG says that while a firm is in administration, if the item you purchased is faulty, your claim for a refund would just be another claim as a creditor to the store – you'd be one of a long list of people owed cash by the company" What I did and my Advice, call the credit card company as they sorted it out for me. I'm now a happy chappy.
