This electrical supplier has been here ever since I can remember. I was surprised that it managed…read moreto stay open through a changing market and a deep recession, but it did. These days' people prefer to go online or go to a cheap major retailer for their electric good needs. Yet this shop seems to not have been too affected by this. The prices and selection here are varied. Some of the items on offer are a lot cheaper than what most would expect from a small retailer, some are way more expensive than their competitor's prices. The best thing about Denman's is that they can order in anything you like and this can range from anything in the consumer electronics field. The shop has a family feel to it and I am all for supporting independent businesses, so I'm sure to come back here again.

This is an electrical and appliance store that somehow sticks around. And I was glad it has stuck…read morearound recently when I needed an obscure cable for a cellar lamp. Perhaps this is how they do stick around, by supplying all of Kings Heath's obscure electrical needs. Well anyway I was very pleased on my return home to find the cable fitted this strange lamp, thus allowing me to illuminate my cellar, explore the cob-web riddled space and to begin entertaining ideas of using it for storing fine wine and cheese or hosting poker games or something less sophisticated, like throwing lots of useless, semi-unwanted house trash into. Anyway, Denmans have a lot of things of this sort, which without them or with faulty ones make a lot of daily activities almost impossible. I am grateful for Denman's presence on the Kings Heath high street as now, with their very important involvement, I have finally made acquaintance with my cellar. And that's just wonderful.

I went to Currys for a specific PC and was told the one they showed me was it but it wasn't. I…read moredecided to take it though an earlier model. Paying i got attitude by the reception refusing to give me my change. two and a half years later i returned the PC after it failed a BIOS update leaving a black screen. Still under warranty by HP of 3 years but a simple fix. I was charged £$79.50 by mike when actually £75 said for transport to repair. Then told by another assistant it included diagnosis which was argued with by MIKE. I was told any replacement was extra but had to be agreed. A few days later i was told my motherboard was replaced with new at £230. I refused they put back my old one. In talks with repair i learned they always replace then repair what they take for future repairs. This was not as they state as they say they replace with new under insurance. I learned that Dixons carphone warehouse had bought out Currys 10 years ago after admitting an insurance scam training staff to sell insurance toi the insured. It made over £480 million and fine of 40 million. A TV I purchased had them halve the insurance cost after i refused it ut though then insured they refused to refund, repair or put in writing their refusal. It seemed the insurance scam was updated and rather than relie on breakdowns repair set to insuring them. I felt trapped so agreed to pay if they returned my property my motherboard with my rep[aired PC. They finally agreed but wanted paying up front. Stupidly i agreed but no motherboard and i refused delivery. I phoned repair they said they wanted another transport payment £75 to return it. Not accepting delivery they couldn't and i asked for proof the new motherboard was new and they refused. I complained and they said i misled them as both items by then were in store. They wanted the receipt for the extra £75 i didn't pay. It was under warranty they got the new motherboard and kept it offering no proof they didn't fix my motherboard then said they threw away my motherboard as useless then found it again stripped of every useful part. My repair was simple at no cost they made £79.50 =£230 then selling my old motherboard as new another £230 they admitted training staff to steal before and kept the staff. Safe in the assurance that to take them to court would cost too much as they continually rewrote the truth. They now say they will auction my PC or charge rent though promised if not as stated returning my motherboard i would get a refund, they then refused.

One of the larger Currys PC World locations I have noticed which are inside a city, with many of…read moretheir larger locations being Warehouse stores in retail parks outside of town. The location is pretty good, opposite the new Primark on High Street, and just off New Street and outside the Bullring. The selection here is pretty good, with a fast lift in-between the two floors, the upper floor has the better selection including laptops, printers and some cool blenders at some of the best prices I've seen on the high street. The store layout could have been improved to include more essential and common items PC World are known for downstairs, although I do respect that some larger and heavier items would need to be located on the downstairs level to avoid transportation upstairs etc. The staff seemed friendly enough, greeting me as I came into the store even just before the store closed which was a bonus, rather than being like "Ugh, can't you come back tomorrow? I want to go home" which is an attitude many other stores, including a few nearby, seemed to give off. Shame.

I love music and like most people that share my interest they have to have the latest sound…read moreequipment. I have Technics 1210's and needed an amp. I bought a Cambridge Audio TOPAZ for just under 80 quid, an absolute bargain. I also needed some really good speakers to get the highest definition of sound from my vinyl, CD's and MP3's. I got a pair of Wharfedale floor standers for under 100 quid. Money well spent and my sound system is pristine. The staff at Richer really know what they are talking about. They don't go for the high pressure sales technique, they just let you browse and they answer any questions that you may have. This branch is a flagship store and I wouldn't go anywhere else for my consumer electronic needs.

The staff have extensive experience of audio visual equipment and they not only advised me on equipment but also hand-drew a diagram on how to connect the system together and advised me that although I'd bought the second cheapest units, that buying gold plated connectors would upgrade the sound somewhat. Richer Sounds have a nice line in bookshelf speakers too, and starting at around £20 for a pair they are amazing value for money. Also look out for discontinued lines of equipment that are bought in bulk at cut-prices and the savings passed on to you. With home-cinema systems being an impressive and (somewhat) affordable installation in your dwelling, the shop also has this mode of entertainment covered well with a stack of gear to suit whatever space you might have available.

They hold a great range of stock and some real specialist pieces. Needless to say they don't stock anything they have a reputation to keep afterall! 2007 is the choice for real sound system DJ types, but won't mind if you just want to buy the headphones int the window.

We sorted it out soon afterwards and became pally. I've since used his place to hire PAs, DJ equipment and other electrical essentials. If you have a party, wedding, or event coming up then I recommend you go and speak to him. He really knows his stuff, will not try to oversell you something you don't need, and is reasonably priced. He called the shop 2007 Sound & Light when he opened it, because 2007 was when he planned to retire. If you use his services next time you need a PA then he might be able to put his feet up soon, and stop worrying about leaky showers overhead.

I was in a queue for 25 minutes and old took 2 steps, there were still around 20 people in front of me and what looking like 30 behind. I put the game back and left. The place also stunk of Body odour. Now, don't get me wrong, prices and variation are great and I will never try to dispute that but good God, that's only if you can get up front to buy them.
