billytheghillie Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Anyone buy from the above? Reason I ask is they give 6 years guarantee on T.V,s, where as rip off Currys gives you 1, plus the option to buy extended guarantee.

spanj Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Julian Richer is a rabid anti .......... (I believe ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun4860 Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Why mention the fact the guy that owns Richer Sounds is an anti? if the guy doing life saving surgery was an anti would it stop anyone wanting treatment off him? I bought my TV off Richer Sounds earlier this year, great customer service, great price PLUS the 6 year warranty.....the fact that the owner may be an anti never came into it.

billytheghillie Posted November 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Shaun, I had read somewhere he was a anti, but that does not bother me. Like your post, you hit the nail right on the head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deker Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 I've bought several bits of kit from them, one had a problem and was changed with a better product with no fuss at all. Not sure if it's still the same but they used to offer a refund for the extra warranty if it wasn't used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAYBURN Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I've used them in the past for several electrical goods and after 4 years the tv packed in had no problem getting it fixed came out checked it, took it away for repair and brought it back.(they only collect TVs over a certain size) I don't know if they still do it, if you see the same deal cheaper elsewhere ask them to price match.

Because by purchasing from his company, you are making him a wealthy individual who uses that wealth to help fund the anti campaign. So, indirectly, you are helping to fund the anti campaign.

I refer you to my original reply, you need life saving surgery, only guy that can do it is a "raging anti" donates money to the cause...... are you going to refuse it? OR Change you to one of your kids, The only guy that can do it is a private surgeon, wants you to pay £10k or he won't do it, you have the money and can afford it, do you refuse? do you check the ethics of everything you buy?

markm Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 But buying a tv is a different option to having your life saved, we can vote with our feet, I’ve done it many times. I won’t buy in the co-op because of their ‘banks’ stance. I would not allow LUSH products in my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Ruler Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 In future I’ll look to see if I can get an equal deal elsewhere, if not I’ll reluctantly use Richer Sounds, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is richer sounds aren't the only people that can supply a telly. There's no way on earth I would give him a penny that he could then spend trying to ban my sport. It's nothing to do with ethics. it's principle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPhantom Posted November 29, 2017 Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 I like Richer Sounds, always had good deals from them in the past. I guess it it up to the individual. It matters not a jot to me what Julian Richer's personal prejudices are.. everybody has the right to an opinion. I'm not a Queen fan, but would you let Brian May's beliefs put you off buying and enjoying the music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very noble, it's your choice not sure it makes much difference, I hate Rupert Murdoch won't subscribe to sky, love to take the mick out of the half wits I know who buy the daily mail and actually think that it's a serious factual newspaper. Good on yeah anyway we all need to do what we can to satisfy our consciences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billytheghillie Posted November 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 Wish I hadn't asked this question, as its opened up a can of worms. Undecided now on where to buy my telly. While I'm at it, I may as well cancel all my Virgin contracts as he is in the paper accused of sexual harassment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
