    Robert,
    Just saw a flyer from Audio House. They are selling a DSLR, Olympus E-410 at $519.00.
    Plus 2 kit lens. I know this is too good to be true, don't know whether it's a gimmick or not. It's too cheap. I might just go check it out later.

    probably part of audiohouse's 1D promo.
    guess the 1st digit of the 1st prize of a 4D draw (set date), and get 60% refund.

    Yeah. I just saw the brochure. It's deceiving as it would seem that that's the advertised price. Wonder if CASE will have a problem with such unscruplous sales tactics.

    I don't think I will ever buy anything from there.

    Cheers,

    It's such a shame that they have to resort to such gimmick to sell their stuff.
    Few years ago I used to shop there as they were giving very good prices.
    With these gimmicks they are only making a bad name for themselves.
    No need for me to shop there anymore.

    Hi all

    Me and my gf just came back from audio house. We thought of buying an 39" LCD TV for $399 but did not see the * sign which have terms and condition applies. We walk out straight after knowing the glimmicks. What the hack...

    Sigh

    $399 for a 39 inch is definitely too good to be true. Think their motive is to attract attention.

    every retailer will come up with their own promotions all year long. it's there in black and white. so really up to the consumer to open their eyes and read the small prints.
    personally, i have bought quite a number of items from audiohouse ranging from camera to tv to washing machines. their service is quite good and with some bargaining, they really give a good deal.
    if i were to hit the 1D prize, i would be so glad to have some "surprise" money to pump into somewhere else ... too bad i guessed the wrong number when i bought my tv 3 mths back
    Cheers,
