Let's Ask Mr. Jerry

Professional Electronic Sales Representative

 

Q: Few days ago I had bought a stereo system from Sayit instead of buying it from Electro, where my family and all relatives always chose to buy most of their electronics such as T.V., Radio, Microwave, etc. My parents kept telling me not to buy it from Sayit because they said Sayit is way too expensive for what their products can offer. And I guess they are right. It is a decision I truly regret. The stereo I bought was SP 550 series which is supposed to one of the newest and best in sound quality and other abilities it has. However, it seems to be no different from one of my cousin's stereos which is from Electro, the PS 6000 series, and it is half the price of the one I bought. Am I the only one feeling this way about the Sayit's SP 550 stereo systems? I am so upset!

 

---------------------

A: Dear Customer,

 

I must let you know that you are NOT the only one. Many people have been fantasized by the new Sayit's stereo system SP 550 series and they are aware of its expensiveness in comparison to other products, in your case the PS 6000 series, which is not lower quality at all compared to the SP 550 series. Also, you should know that in after-service the Electro docs a much better job than the Sayit that it might even cost you more if you end up getting any after- services from them. I believe that the reason the Sayit is so expensive is that they had to spend so much money on their commercials and advertisements, so they had no choice but to raise the price. If you can return it and get refund, I would recommend you do that as soon as possible.
