Curry's
Who does not know of Curry's electrical store and together with Dixons they are no longer in the city centre The one at Pontypridd still retains the old excellence of a large electrical store
In the past I have found that many of the salespersons did not have a great deal of technical knowledge and were only interested in selling ( well who can blame them? ) however my recent visit I found the salesman ( should I mention the name ? ) was able to discuss technical matters in great detail . Whether this was due to prior knowledge or a revamped training program I will not know but it was a pleasure to meet someone who knew what they were talking about. If you shop carefully some remarkable bargains are to be had .In fact also they promise to refund the difference and give the buyer in addition a small percentage of the purchase price if you can find the same object at a cheaper price within seven days of purchase I am not certain if this applies to goods found on the internet.
I was in the shop looking for compact digital camera and one I selected was an all singing all dancing model ( if you know what I mean !) reduced in price by a- hard to believe -£ 100 ! There were some little snags as there was no memory card supplied so you had to purchase one in addition ( otherwise the camera was almost
useless There was a very small amount of memory built enough for one or two photographs )
Although I suspect that you could get a cheaper card on the net But 'Penny pinching' aside it was still a remarkable bargain.
If you are looking for a flat screen TV they have so many on display that choice becomes confusing and they seem reasonable enough in price although I have not done a price comparison.
There is in addition a large selection of household electrical goods and one can spend a pleasant time 'window shopping' for anything from computers to Hi Fi and radios. read more
