As someone once said to me ......

It doesn't matter how good or well priced your gas lamps were your business model was screwed when electricity was invented.

The retail market has changed beyond all recognition the management of these company's are trying their best to remain relevant in the new environment.

its always easier to blame someone else and blaming management is easy and frequently incorrect

A quick warning, don't get fooled by this company's latest scam....It's website states a further 25% of selected items in the 4 Days left, all these Items are coincidently not available in store but available for delivery in 5-7days.....Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Going by some recent reports of people falling for this, is you will not receive your Item

I think you will find that would be fraudulent trading by the Administrators, and accordingly I suspect you are wrong.

Seconded, surely that's just them trying to empty their warehouse(s) without having to ship things to, and then probably back from, stores!
