  I was looking for rechargeable batteries 'CR123A' which I hadn't had luck finding before. The member of staff advised me he had a charging port and batteries for this. He showed me a charging port for £19.99 and batteries for the port at £11... He then realised he did not have any batteries in stock and was unable to tell me when he was getting them back in. He also advised me that this was a 'rare' battery and I would struggle to find it elsewhere... After 10 minutes of searching amazon at home I found both a charging port with 4 batteries at £12.99 on Prime... Everything works fine and I have saved myself £18. I would advise not listening to everything the staff in this shop tell you as they don't seem as clued up on their industry as they make out. Maybe I had a new member of staff, maybe not. Will not be returning here.

  Absolutely clueless staff! Didn't have what I needed so the friendly assistant assured me they had 24 in stock in there Nuneaton store, so sent me there. After paying to park, I found the store. Not only was the item not in stock at Nuneaton but Maplins didn't stock it at all! Thank you for wasting my Morning!
