We've been pricing ovens and cooktops with a view to replacing the crap that's in our current kitchen. We've decided that we want the same ones we had in Kedron. Bosch no longer make the cooktop but Michael found a similar one made by Miele, at a good price.
Whilst at Hardly Normal looking at this cooktop, Michael also looked at the Bosch side opening oven. Now bear in mind that we bought it for $1560 two years ago. That model has been 'superceded' by another one (which has exactly the same functions). Hardly Normal told us that RRP was $2300, but they could discount it to $2100 just for us (how kind of them!). I wanted to get more quotes, so I rang The Good Guys down in Warrnambool. I didn't even ask the best or cash price, just gave Richard the model number and he said "$1598". Now that's a saving of $500 from Hardly Normal's 'discounted' price!!!
Guess who we won't be buying the oven from!
