is it a con?

in Talkback
I've been shopping around for couple of weeks for a greenhouse...I've settled on a green Robinson 6x8ish. However, until the end of September (some websites stare 13th Sept) the prices are reduced by 50% massive discount (£2773 down to £1386). I'm a bit sceptical.. should I buy now or will they reduce further towards winter? I pity the people who paid full price...or is this one of those are the greenhouse

Oops never finished...is this one of those somewhere no-one has ever paid the full price?
Darn this website...is this just another con where no-one has ever paid full price!
Thanks philippa - I think Robinsons have got control of all the retailer's prices for their greenhouses as they are exactly the same whether it's different online retailers or my local stockist (dobbies).
Thanks philippa and pansyface - they are all offering the same added extras. Can't believe the price of staging! Looks lovely but will be making something freestanding at a fraction of the cost (ahem OH will).
I have had a 12x8 robinsons greenhouse for 25years. Still going well apart from the louvre vents. I replaced all the automatic window openers this year. I particularly like the higher eaves than some makes have , and the double doors.
Staging I got from two wests and elliot in Chesterfield.
Thanks fidgetbones that's good to know. I'm done with all the researching and will get it ordered. Its 7-9 weeks for delivery...I'll be chomping at the bit.
