I went to Jessop's Worthing branch to buy a new camera as I wanted to support a local store rather than buy on the internet.
I selected the camera that I wished to buy and waited in hope that a sales assistant would turn up. When one did eventually make an appearance he took one look at the camera and said: 'You don't want to buy that one mate - it's rubbish.' and then tried to sell me another camera that was much cheaper. When I told him that, because of its features, this was the camera that I particularly wanted to buy and would he demonstrate it for me, he shrugged his shoulders and walked off.
So I rapidly departed the store and bought the camera on the internet £30 cheaper.
The moral of the story? Don't bother to shop at Jessops. No wonder they went bankrupt.
