Office works could have lost money on that deal..

Yeah my mate price matched a duty free store for an Asus Transformer Prime tablet and walked out with it for $420..

Wingnut are office works stores franchised and privately owned? Or corporate ownership?

Not much at all mate. We sold it at a fairly heavy loss. But you gotta be in the game or there's no point opening your doors. There are items we dominate on and that's where you make up your loss but all company's have people they get great deals or huge rebates which allows then to cut the ass out if the price.

They are all company owned mate 150+. Parent company being Wesfarmers who also own Bunnings, Coles, Kmart and a huge interest in resources. Retail at 30billion annually makes up only a portion of what they turnover.

iv tried asking to price match stuff before. they usually tell me some crap and that they cant do it.

so normally just pay full price and be done with the awkwardness.
