Assuming The Hut falls into line regards the 2.5% VAT reduction on Monday (or before) Then this might be one of the best deals yet ! Please tell me if I’m wrong, maths isn’t my forte
Black / White £289.93 less 2.13% Tax = £283.75 less 5% Quidco = £269.56
And if you don’t like faffing with Quidco then give [red=thehutnc10]my Hut link[/red] a go!
Of course if you want that extra 5% then you can get to quidco here – bah: http://www.quidco.com/the-hut/
Good spot Baz I’ll add that on my buyin’ page next time I update it.
The price seems interesting, however availability spoils the feeling that price has set 😉
Has anyone any experience with The Hut and what exactly does “Available on order” mean in terms of delivery time?[quote1227689576=Karos]

[/quote1227689576]I had never even heard of them to be honest. And when I was looking last night all of their picture links seemed broken. Not an overly great first impression but maybe the are having a few teething probs. Happens to us all.
I think I would rather have peace of mind by shopping at Dixons or an established and well known company. I have never heard of the hut and none of the search engines threw up this name when I looked for NC10 retailers recently. In ny case, I have just looked at the hut and the blue version is 299 now.

[/quote1227691266]My experience with The Hut has always been very good, with the demise of HD earlier in the year I purchased lots of HD DVDs from them with out any probs. (good email updates, well packaged) However I wasn’t actually aware they sold AV equipment. If anyones serious regards placing an order, it might be worth calling them first ref delivery, I think there based in Cheshire.

[/quote1227691959]Some stores seem to be adding a premium on the Blue, however I did only post £269.56 for the black or white, the blue was always £299.00.
I bought mine from curry’s and have it covered with insurance. £4.99 a month for repair/replacement. Worth it imo because i use mine for uni and travel on the train. For theft i use the house insurance 😀
Insurance is one of those things that we’ll all have our own opinion on. No one can really dictate the risk profile of another person.
I for example am happy to carry the risk myself, but if it is a critical item for you and you can’t otherwise afford to replace it then you’ll be thankful that you have it!
Here’s hoping nothing bad happens to anyone’s little Sammy!
I ordered a Blue one from theHut when there was a 10% discount code about, came back at £263 delivered! without Quidco. I initially asked a question on availability as none was stated. Once I placed an order, delivery date is expected as 18/12/08. This is without a possible reduction of 2.5% on VAT on the pre discounted price.TheHut I have used many times for DVD/games, same group of operators as ASDA Entertainment/Lovefilm etc. Been good in my opinion, but never previously ordered a netbook from them!
A similar story at most places – NC10s going up most places – Dixons still £299 and in stock – plus some voucher codes to bring it down a bit!
Look at The HUt I couldn’t actually see the NC10s….weird
