WD Red 3TB Hard Drive £73 instore @ Maplin

Great find and first deal @sam01792!

Thanks for sharing and welcome

Called at one in Leeds today and have they put the prices up to give discounts?
Item I'm following has been the same price in and out of he sale in last few weeks.

Just checked online, there are a couple near me, but the price is £76.99, but a good deal nonetheless

Blackpool has 3 if anyone is local. Damn... Bought a 3TB drive elsewhere earlier this week

Heat added!

Think about warranty, they are going bust .

I think the warranty would be with WD itself, but I am not sure

Yeah you are right and I've used WD to send hard drives back a few times over the years and they are ok about it usually, but it's not as straightforward as walking into a shop and getting an instant replacement.

Also online for £76.99, its an OK price if you need one, but probably a goose chase.

The stock levels shown online are not accurate, don't make a special journey.

The warranty is with WD themselves so the fact Maplin is closing down doesn’t make a difference luckily. You’d also be covered by EU consumer law on any electrical goods from the original manufacturer for 2 years from proof of purchase I believe.

So where does the 2 years under EU consumer law stand after Brexit in 2019?

I had a feeling this comment was coming. My understanding is that we are carrying over the current laws from the EU agreement so one can only assume it will still stand...non the less, you would still have a 3 year warranty with WD themselves.
