Bought a laptop then price drops down :(

I'd bought an Acer 7730 from the purple shirt store for £440 on Monday after being convinced it wouldn't drop in price any further, only to find that it's now at £399 in the same store as well as another well known electrical store.

Is it possible to return the laptop and buy it new at the new price or do I just accept that I've paid the extra £40?

It was a belated birthday present & pre-emptive christmas present as both are quite close together.

Search for "7730" on the purple shirt website to find it. I think I'll just put up with the £40 loss and be happy hah

Exactly what I thought, however I think they'd realise what I was up to...

Cheers moonrise, didn't realise they had a price match policy!

Cheers chap, got them to match the new store price and got a refund
