Couldnt believe it, I actually got a refund from currys

Hi, I bought a grundig home theatre kit (gdv520) from my local currys last month,a deal to good to be true,£350 for dvd&dolby 5.1 and so it was apart from the subwoofer which made a strange and annoying noise when going into standby mode.
I took the subwoofer back to the shop and left it with the repair guy who agreed with me but also informed me that all the other ones in the shop done the same thing.So off i went to see the assistant manager who naturally couldnt authorise a refund/exchange and would have to ring head office the next day.
Called to currys the next day and to my astonishment was offered a full refund, I almost fell over and certainly didnt hang around to find out why.
Scooted off to richer sounds and got a nice marantz dv3100, multiregion out of the box for £200 and Videologic dts system is in the post.
Moral of the story, never try to do anything on the cheap.

Although i feel a bit cheated that i never got a row out of the currys people.

You are clearly delusional and I suggest you seek immediate psychiatric help. Men have often dreamed of refunds from Currys the same way that the conquistadors dreamed of the lost city of gold but such things are fantasies.

The lost city of gold (El DORADO) actually exists. A refund from currys does not

Surely bacon on the wing territory here. Aren`t refunds from Currys one of the signs of the coming Apocalypse?
