来年3月新居に引っ越すにあたり、今リビングで使用しているエアコンが
7年選手になるので、部屋が一つ増える事やしリビング用で大きめのエアコンを
買わないかんなぁ。と思い電気屋さんへ。
大きさは、まぁ4kwhかな。と見ていたら高い奴は25万円。安いのは16万円。
エライ値段が違うな。省エネの奴がいいんだが・・・。と店員さんに声をかけると
「丁度このクラスは11月に各社新機種を発売したので、旧型は安くなってます。
旧型は在庫無くなり次第販売終了です。25万円のが新型、16万円が旧型ですが
どちらも最上位機種です。省エネでは三菱”霧ヶ峰”が断然一番」との事。
家に帰り得意の価格.comの書き込みチェック。
128,000円で買っている人がおり、交渉価格はこれで決まり。
あとは決戦に臨むのみ!
浜松のヤマダ電機で希望価格を伝えると、133,000円が精一杯との事で了解。
来年3月の配送で購入即決。しかし、元々25万円もしている製品が
旧型になると約半額になるんだから、絶対家電は新機種が出た時に旧機種を買うに
つきるとつくづく思う日でした。
My air conditioner, now we using, is seven
years old and next Mar, we will move to new condominium so I went to electric shop
for checking air conditioner price because new condo has one more room so I need
bigger one for living room.
I think the size should be 4kwh and checked
the prices in the electric shop.
In there, expensive one is about JPY250,000
and cheap one is about JPY160,000.
The price has big differences but I prefer
energy saving model so I tried to ask salesclerk.
He said “in Nov, every electric companies released
new models of this size so old model price is down and the old model will be
finish to sell soon after inventories sold out.
JPY250,000 is new model and JPY160,000 is
old model but both are the highest model.
And in his opinion, he thinks Mitsubishi
Kirigamine is by far the best energy saving model.
The day, I returned to home and checked comments
about the model in website, Kakaku.com, as usual.
There was one person who bought the model
JPY128,000 so my target price is fixed.
My final mission, price negotiating battle,
is settled.
I visited Yamada electric in Hamamatsu and I
told my target price to salesclerk but his best is JPY133,000 so I accept it
and I made a deal for delivery it in Mar.
But you know, original price was about
JPY250,000 but if it became old model, the price will be about half so I really
thought we must buy electrical fittings old model when new model was released.
