Graham was after one of the stradics that BCF advertised in their catalog for $169 Yesterday afternoon the Cannon Hill store told me that Capalaba had them in stock so we dropped in on the way back from NPD only to be told that the special was no longer available.
I have just had a look at their on line store to see that they were still available and thought you beauty I will get one for Graham so I clicked on the purchase button and got this.
Items in your cart: 1
Freight: $25.00

Total (ex GST): $176.37
GST: $17.63
Total (inc GST): $194.00
$169 for the reel.
$25 for freight ( Anaconda only charge $10 freight for a reel.
Then $17.63 gst;
So the total ends up $194.
Needless to say not going ahead with purchase.
Cheers

Its not the first time that they have advertised crap they havnt got and it probably wont be the last.
As for matching prices from elsewhere well thats completely up to the store manager at the time.So...sometimes its yes and sometimes its no.
