I don't think I'd be able to advertise some of those offers with a straight face though. Save £3 on a DSLR with lens does seem so irrelevant that it's not worth even offering it. Flucard fair enough, but offers shouldn't, IMHO, look ridiculous.
Best regards, John

I read it as the listed price minus the discount given via the voucher code e.g. K50 £395 - £40 = £355

Wex Photographic were offering deals of up to £80.00 off selected Pentax DSLR's last week if that's any help, great people to deal with as well.

"Save 6 pounds on a 775 pound camera" ?
Hardly counts as a 'Deal'

........like the Pentax DA50-200mm lens they advertised for 30 quid and later had to admit they didn't have any and we all had to wait 6 weeks for a refund!
Thanks jessops

Copied from their page: "Save £6.00 ( Was £775.00) £769.00"
...and yes I've seen the 'voucher code' bit

Are you saying you would not use the voucher to have the "deal"

Of course not but that's not what's advertised first, what is supposed to attract people is the "Save £6.00 ( Was £775.00) £769.00" "Oh and by the way, there's a voucher discount".

The 'Save £6.00 ( Was £775.00) £769.00' is almost an insult, a bit like offering 50 quid off the price of a house.

Anyway for me it's irrelavent, I'd never deal with jessops again after my last experience with them

I'll repeat what i said in another thread. My K5 and kit lens of three years usage plus £80 at till and £100 extra trade in value got me a K3 body for £374 nett and two year warranty at SRS. Beat that!

I see where you are coming from. I was notified of the deal by email and this piece from it may shed a better light on how the deal was advertised.
