So it was a stock clearance scheme as we had imagined.

Disappointing but no major surprise here sadly. Perhaps more stock will roll in after the summer.


That's not true.

It was just a promotion that a few retailers matched. If it was a stock clearing scheme other retailers wouldn't have bothered matching. There may be no stock now (haven't checked) but that doesn't indicate stock clearing - of course it could be - but it's just anecdotal.

Retail price matches in UK all the time, they don't like people going to other shops because if they go elsewhere once, they wil go again for other things.  So they price match to keep customers shopping with them.


Not sure if directed at me, but I'm not disagreeing with any of that at all. It's exactly how it works...

1. Price reduced -> Amazon matches -> Supermarkets match ...or swap.
