Really?
Easons I demand you to explain this obvious mistake amounting to a 6c price difference.
Alors
If a lot of books have a random difference (upward) of a few cents, how much does that work out at in a week? Asking for a friend.
Andrew
Did you not query it at the till when you paid? you know, in person?
Cian
But what is it?

the letter before the “tion” isn’t a “c” – it’s most likely an “i”.
And are you really saying you’ve never had an erection?
Brother Barnabas
i still have hope, cian
and you can never take that from me
Sham Bob
Urgh, I’d be sticking that in the ignore pile if I was doing Eason’s social media.
Alors
Perhaps that’s why you’re not doing Easons’ social media, Sham?

I’d say it’s like that Lotto Ball anomaly. You think it’s €10.53 but it really means that the best before date on the book is 17th October 1953. That info is well out of date Con, hope its not a medical book.

10.53e is a weird price. Maybe some employee got too handy with the pricing gun.

Many moons ago I worked in a shop called Aspecto on Sth Anne st. The sale prices used to be generated by a computer and we would have to write massive sale cards in red marker with the likes of: adidas Italia WERE €129 NOW €127!!
We pointed out how ridiculous it was many times but were put back in our boscas

Well, I for one will NEVER visit Easons again.
Paul
with websites like Bookdepository around, who would?
at least shops like Hodges & Figgis have a bit of charm.
mildred st. meadowlark
I love Hodges Figgis. I miss Hughes&Hughes too. The were my local bookshop once upon a time.
Easons are devoid of character, entirely soulless.
Cian
Also, Eason are not plural.
they *should* be; but aren’t.
Brother Barnabas
it’s just a pity that Hodges Figgis is owned by a russian billionaire with links to putin

I doubt there are any without links…

They’re always dodgy with prices. The till price is almost always higher than the book price, not the other way round, unsurprisingly. It’s one of the few shops where I always check the receipt.
I’m wise to their tricks.

The computer inside the cash register may have sneezed. Bless it.

Its not a book, but a cycling magazine, called ROULEUR, priced at £7.50 sterling. Cant seem to get a photo uploaded.
“Training the mighty Steivio”
“Cancellara’s heart to heart”

“Giro d’Italia Edition”

The issue isn’t the sixpence. It’s transparency. The point of barcode scanning is to ensure the customer is charged correctly and avoid errors such as this. It’s a consumer confidence issue.
If every whingy cyclist paid over the odds for their read of choice that’s a lot of extra moolah for Eason
So I’ll take a penny off everyone on broadsheet – sure it’s only a penny…
Brother Barnabas
…which would amount to around 36p
Cian
But Eason would charge you 39p
Con Kennedy
Yeah but if you add in the reckless, arrogant, dangerous and ninja cyclists it’s a lot of gouging.
Enough to but a fully equipped Pinarello Dogma F10 and a life time supply of salbutamol
