30% off at Torpedo 7

[AllanB]

Torpedo 7 sale this weekend - use the code for 30% off.

Motorcycle stuff in the 'Moto' section - other goodness on the site for camping, watersports etc etc.

I purchased a nice set of Falco boots off T7 at Christmas and a front yoke stand.

I got the Falcon Axis 2.1 - half height calf - they have a couple of taller styles on there as well.

I think the 30% off storewide is false advertising as they have exclusions so its not really storewide.

Why don't you write and tell them? The subsequent 'discussion' could keep you going until Christmas.

Since you ask, it depends how you define "store wide". That may not mean everything in the store is 30% off, it could possibly mean that there were specials in all departments across the store. But hey, I'm not a retail expert or a lawyer, if you want to write feel free.

Did you buy anything? It's been a cold damp weekend in Christchurch I know - but who gives a shit if there are a handful of exclusions. Find something that is discounted and you want it buy it. Deal. Good value.

It's no different to just about every advertising in NZ - electronics retailers always have a astrix - usually excluding Apple products. Which is ironic as the bloody things are overpriced anyway .....

Good stuff. I'm very happy with the Falco boots I got off them early this year.

Other retailers do not call their percentage discounts store wide but brand specific with exclusions which I think is different.

Technically you are correct. The entire store is not discounted without exception.

Technically they are correct. The 30% is applied over all categories of their store (thus store wide), within some there are clearly noted exceptions.


If you are going to crack out the quill and ink and slow post a letter then ensure you base it on the above.


Out of interest what do you do for a job?

Fully legal, exclusions are listed.

Wait 'til us oldies catch up to you... never under estimate the damage a well-thrown Zimmer frame can inflict!

That's for staring at the check out girls boobs/arse. Good value I think.
