B&O in Comet...

      Heard a while ago that B&O were looking at going into one of the "sheds" to get back on track. I did'nt believe it of course, then I was told that they once had a consession in a Dixons London store...is this true!?!

    What gave me a fright though was this...

Hi:

 

I don't know if it is true presently. However, historically they did sell TVs through Rumbelows in the early 90's/late 80's. I don't think it would necessarily be a bad thing, if B&O rent space in the shops kind of like how 3 Mobile rented floor space in Superdrug. This would mean that they maintain exclusivity yet gain access to a wider audience. However, (perhaps contradicting myself here) is this possibly a false economy - if people want to buy a Matsui/Sony/Sharp they go to Currys. If they want a B&O they go to B&O.

 

Is that an Avant and a Beosund 9000 in the banner?

 

 

The reason you see "3" mobiles in Superdrug is because Hutchison Telecom of Hong Kong wholely owns both Superdrug and "3"

In years gone by B&O had many shops-in-stores, as an example they were in Harrods, now they are NOT, they are over the road in their own Knightsbridge store.
