Default Pleasantly surprised at PC World Business

Bought a bunch of stuff from PC World Business on Friday including a PC and a printer.

I pushed for a discount however did not get much joy...

...however when he totted up the price it was a lot less than the store prices.

The printer was £129 on the shelf and it was £75 to a 'business' customer. The ink cartridges were half price as well!!

I never realised but for peripherals and consumables they have a completely different price list which is FAR cheaper than the shelf prices, up to 50% off.

They don't discount PCs however I have not found cheaper prices anywhere on the web. From memory they did not need any proof of trading merely a company name and address.

But did the prices include V.A.T ? As PC World Business will only give you the price of equipment excluding V.A.T which may make it sound cheaper.
