Encore, encore.  For the second consecutive week, BEST BUY stores are offering 20 percent off all new dysons only.  Model shown in the newspaper supplement is dyson's DC25 All Floors with ball technology regularly $499 on sale for $399.  $100 savings.

Why would you even mention this?  You have always contented that such reviews are fictitious or a conspiracy.

Still doing the twist I see.  I already commented and as usual you try to avoid the issue.

The issues HS are that the supposedly latest and greatest dyson ball technology models are being advertised and sold by retailers at prices that are twice as low than the once sacred dyson MAP.  As I recall you and others espoused here that dyson's policing of its MAP among retailers is dyson's pricing forte.  What happened?  Some here now, like me, are even calling for dyson to drop the ball line completely from its lineup.  It's not just me anymore.  That's quite a twist that you missed.

The issue here is that you have commented numerous that consumer reviews are practically meaningless and likely bogus. Of course we all know that you twist those statements if you think you can use them to your advantage.

I never made comments on MAP pricing.  There are too many ways to get around pricing. 

I missed nothing.  Try to follow us.

You missed alot HS.  You have kow towed CR over its ratings.  Why?  In part, because it has consistently given dyson fair to middlin ratings.  The worse of the dyson ratings from CR go to dyson DC15.  UNTIL, the DC24, which rated even worse than a DC15.  Not yet up to bat with CR is dyson's DC25 ball, tho as noted it is discounted well below MAP by many retailers who are stuck with it.  If the CR rating for dyson's DC25 is as bad as the previous dyson ball models, dyson will scrub the ball technology from the line up.  That's one that even you can't twist with a favorable spin.

Speaking of Dyson and $#%*...the DC15 All Floors has made a mysterious reappearance onto Dyson's UK website line-up, priced higher than the (in my opinion) vastly superior DC25 Animal. However, the DC15's marked as 'out of stock'

Until recently, the website's upright line-up had been whittled down to just 3 main models, the DC14, DC24 and DC25, following the discontinuation of the DC07.

Also, the DC27 was due out in the UK in February...it's the end of May, and it's still nowhere to be seen...what's the hold-up? Promotions for it have been running in the Argos catalogue since its intended launch date...
