In spring 2007, one of my colleagues at work told me that in the shop of the famous retail chain started sale sold glass case examples of outdated models of equipment with very large discount.
For fun, I went to the store and the first thing I saw there - quite an expensive air conditioning Mitsubishi Heavy SRK-208, on which the price list was proudly written 25,000 2,500 rubles.
I realized that this just can not be, and what a catch. I came to a counselor and he explained what the catch - lost from the air conditioner outdoor unit. :) But in the presence of a powerful air conditioner Hitachi (the BTU 14,000, if I remember correctly), are complete for 4500 rubles, it's what I bought.
I came home and found that there was no scope to which the suspended indoor unit (as without it, the installation of air conditioning would be turned into a torment). The next day I went to the store. Seller scratched his head and said that somewhere in the warehouse, he saw a picture frame, and went to look for her. I was looking for a long time. He returned forty minutes later with a frame and a happy face. "- This is you last asked about Mitsubishi for 2500 rubles?" he asked. I confirmed. - "You know. And I just found an external power from it! No remote though. You will take? ".
So I became the owner of Mitsubishi air conditioner for 2500 rubles. :) A remote for him I bought in Tibet (which just went through a month) for $ 5. Designation of buttons and all indications on it in Chinese characters, but guess what buttons to push, was not difficult.
This conditioner I have works fine for 11 years (I think it may have time to refuel?) And a couple of days ago I ordered for it on Aliexpress copy of the "native" console for $ 4.
Hitachi, bought for 4,500 rubles, and works great.
Interestingly, and now there are such sale or all become greedy and real discount greater than 25% does not happen?
