I've been looking for a new camera and narrowed it down to a couple of options yesterday. I had one in particular that I liked more but I put the links through flubit to see what they came back with, both were cheapest on Amazon. Later yesterday I received an offer with a discount of 2.9% which equates to a saving of £6.62 and brought the total down to £221.78 so I thought that's not a bad saving and went for it
However, about an hour later I received an offer on the other camera which turned out to be the same camera! I'd created two demands but accidentally used the same Amazon link. Only this offer was for 6% and equated to a saving of £13.68, more than double the saving for exactly the same camera, from exactly the same supplier!
I contacted Flubit to ask if they would be willing to credit the difference of the saving but they said they could not and the only way to get the cheaper offer is to cancel and re-order the lower offer. I had ordered using my credit card through paypal so that I could pay it off at the end of next month so I was just going to leave it rather than mess about cancelling and re-ordering but thought about it and that would mean I'm basically paying £7.06 interest just to be able to pay for it next month!
So I decided to cancel and just use money from my savings to pay for it instead. Ridiculous that they can make two totally different offers when it is for the same product |
