Funny people mention tax avoidance on a site which is owned by a company that avoids tax by being registered in the Seychelles.

I do believe this "clearance" sale has been going on for at least 3 weeks now! judging by the emails I get from them every day. Still better late than never :confused:

Heat! tax paying ethical institution of high moral standing!

I think the big issue is with their larger items and white goods. I've experienced similar with them when ordering a dishwasher it didn't come on the correct day, and a click and collect lamp had minimal packing so was a bit bashed about. Both times however they did offer financial compensation and were relatively easy to deal with, however I certainly wouldn't get any large goods that I had to wait in for delivered again as items like this not turning up is unacceptable and companies like AO do it so much better.

They have some really nice lights (obviously this is subjective but i have seen the top quality of the JL ones) with extremely good discounts.

I always try and buy from John Lewis for those reasons.

We all love JL but more recently there have been quite a few complaints on here about their service. Doesn't help when reviews like these are out there.

They can't be worse than Currys.

Just be aware that "special buy" items are not reduced at all, but bought in for the sale. They are generally of a lesser quality and NOT a bargain at all !

Slightly suspicious of a TV I bought last week as the box looked like it had been retaped up, however everything was packaged / protection tape & wrap as it should have been and it was only when I switched it to update itself (there was a manufacturers upgrade at the end of May) that I realised they must have done that themselves as it was right up to date. So dodgy looking packaging may be because they have done such.

Did see destiny the taken king pack for £13 for xbone in Solihull.

Fair points. I try to do my bit but yes I use a Google search engine. That said - I always try to log in via Quidco.com or if not everyclick (a charity search engine).

The above said, yes you are right. Still, J Lewis is a great company in my view.

Picked up some nice sportswear :smiley:

Not saying they aren't good as has been said you only find out when things go wrong and fingers crossed I won't ever find out.

I think, apart from maybe Argos, they are the strongest retail brand in Britain tbf...

I thought Argos was Greek?

Damn, I just stupidly filled my basket as I thought if you spent £50 you qualify for free delivery. Any discount codes please?

Marvellous stuff Johnny Lewis. heat added

Well......to be fair... I did say "in Britain"... And not 'british'...
But it was actually established in Britain anyway... #wikipedia :sunglasses::sunglasses::sunglasses:

You missed the joke (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argos_(dog))

The education system in this country is terrible.

Well...with jokes like this I think this country's sense of humour is going to pot too!... :disappointed:
