Just got the mail through.
Thought that 20% off is a great deal. Had my eye on the magicshine 6500, which was priced yesterday at £200 (with no hint that this was discounted at all)

Todays price is now £229.99 and yes, while you get 20% off that price, it works out only about 5% off what the light would have cost yesterday.

hmmm.

not misleading, as it is what it says it is, but I've not seen a hike before a sale quite as blatant as that before. Normally the price is hiked for a while before the sale, not just on the start.

Yes, the 800lumen jobsworth I was looking at was 35odd quid, now 60 so even with the code thats three pound extra by my dodgy maths. Bargain!

I expect they are complying with the letter of the law, but it does make you feel like you are being diddled.

Same with the ultra 2000 I was looking at last week for £100 which is now cunningly £120

Have you only just found PX for the first time?

I've found with planet x it pays to know their prices so when there is a sale you know if its worth it or not or if you are just been suckered in.
