Avoid Notebook Depot Dundas and Church Toronto, Both me and my roomate bought our laptops there. If we paid cash, there would be no tax. It was supposed to be $1000 for the laptop and $50 for the RAM upgrade. I went to ge the money out came back and paid for the laptop and my roomate did the same and placed the order for his laptop, then he told us to get out of the store because he was closing. I had the cash in hand to pay for the RAM upgrade but he never asked for it, so I didn't give it to him. When I got home and tried out the laptop, the battery would not charge at all, the laptop needed to go in for immediate repair. The box had been clearly opened before and the sales person named Stone, must have known that it wouldn't charge properly. He called various times asking for the RAM upgrade money, he even called my roomates cell many times demanding the $50 for my RAM upgrade. My roomate got his laptop the next week and Stone continued to harras him about my purchase, and not paying for the RAM upgrade, my roomate got really mad at him and said "this is not my problem deal with the customer yourself"
I have had the laptop for about 8 months now, never paid for the RAM upgrade and I got another battery from Acer's repair centre, so I have 2 batteries now. So in the long run it was ok, but a lot of hassel.

So in the end, he may have intentionally or negligently defrauded you in knowing that the battery was dead, or it could have been purely an honest mistake. His point is arguable unless you have definitive proof that he intended to sell you that laptop with a non-working battery. He may have just opened the box to check that everything was in there.

However, you knowingly and intentionally committed the act of Fraud under s. 380 (1) of the Criminal Code by falsehood defrauding a person of any property, money or valuable security or any service. Wherein falsehood means that you promise to pay cash for the purchase of an item without any intention of honouring the promise. You can't say you had any intention to pay him back if till this day you still haven't given you say he called numerous times, going so far as to call your friend, even if initially you had the cash out intending to pay if he asked.

Then you so boldly as to come on RFD and post it for the world to see, hmmmm ... not too smart.

reviving a year and a half year old thread. why don't you just stand in front of the store and turn away every one of their customers if you hate them so much? do something crazy or go whine to your mom.

Well, if you can prove it is useful, I don't mind do that. Are you work with them??

I want to share others experience with others, doesn't matter if it is old thread or not.

It doesn't take a genius to know there is risk involved in buying anything from a store called "Notebook Outlet"... especially in a place like Pacific Mall.

+1
only idiots would spend $1000+ at "Notebook Outlet" stuff like this u gotta get from a large retail stores such as FS or BB or even canadacomputers or pcgate. WTF IS Notebook Outlet? LMAFO

well atleast u still have the $100 coupon that u can spend at THEIR store
