What a day!
My hubby bought me a new Colonel Veneer Coffee table today, so it matches what we already have in my lounge, the last coffee table was same colour on the edges but mainly glass, but I got very paranoid in case anyone fell against it or so.
I will post a piccie link of the coffee table below, but anyway, he opened the box this afternoon to check it and its quite heavy too, well it is for me at over 20KGS.
I thought WOW, that is perfect, so as taking off the cardboard corners, we noticed one side of it were damaged, all the rest just perfect.
How disappointing.
We could not get one at our local one until 5th Jan, so we travelled a little further to Newport Gwent and they had one left!!
So hubby rang the tel number on the receipt, but it seems they have closed for the day now, but she did say when we take it back they will just exchange for another, my hubby explained that it was the only one left, so she went off to check if others were in elsewhere just in case.
Only she did not get back, the line went dead and that was that.
Ringing these 0845 numbers cost and it already taken a few attempts before he did actually get to speak to someone.
Sooooooooo, I am hoping impatient as I am, there will be another one in the same maybe elsewhere in another Argos store, and this time I have a good mind to get this checked in the shop before leaving the store, its too heavy to keep going back and forth.
Prior to buying in Argos, we did look elsewhere in other furniture stores but none taken my fancy, i am a fussy so so lol.

Its actually a lot nicer looking in reality, oh apart from the damage of course, and it looks smaller in the advert too.
Hope everyone have had a good day! :santa_wink:
