can that happen? Here is something weird; I normally get vouchers from my company to reduce the price with our associated partners. One of them is Panasonic and I can get 25% off any Panasonic products on that website.

Now, one of their 37 inches LCD TV is priced 700 pounds (1080 US dollars, I know, things in the UK are dead expensive). Even with 25% off, the TV will cost 525 pounds.

In Amazon, since I am a prime member, the delivery is free. The exact the same TV will cost 499 pounds including tax and delivery.

How could that happen? If that is the case, why bother buying anything from the manufacturer website? If they are willing to sell such a cheap price to retailers, why establish their own website to sell their own products? Are they tricking consumers by using their Goodwill? I would think it will hardly work over a long term. It is just stupid.

I think I even have vouchers for Amazon as well.
