Advantages: you can see a wide range

Disadvantages: none in stock!

I went to Comet in Cardiff today to buy a washing machine. There was quite a large range of choice so we had a browse around. All the washing machines were clearly marked with the price and features so it was pretty easy to see what was on offer.

It wasn't long before a sales man came over to help. He was friendly and polite but I got the impression he didn't really know a great deal about the products on offer but talked the talk anyway which wasn't hugely helpful.

When we eventually decided which one we wanted he told us that it wasn't in stock and that we would have to order it and it would take at least 3 days. We needed it there and then so that was no use. We then found that our second choice wasn't in stock and suprise suprise, neither was our third option.

In fact, only a minority of them were in stock and had a sticker on them saying that they were available that day. Not particularly impressive for such a big store. We went somewhere else!

Summary: try somewhere else
