Ventura - Dixons shop

It's in the ships photo corridor, very similar to the old photo equipment sales area, but now run by Dixon's as a concession. It did appear to have a reasonable range of items, and this was before the refit so it might have been improved.

I was on board after the refit.

 

Its... OK. They do price match their stock, apparently, but whilst they have a decent range of products, there's not a lot of variety, (if that makes sense). The products are at the pricier end of the market, even if not Bang and Olufsen.

 

Even if they are slightly cheaper than the High Street, or even Amazon, for their specific models because they don't have a great variety personally I would do my shopping for those sorts of goods ahead of the cruise, or if I realised I was missing something try to pick it up at a stop.

It was open pre-refit although it has now been extended. It was very popular on our cruise on Feb as many people had lots of OBC and bought iPhones, iPads and Fitbits. It was also eligible for your peninsular club discount if you'd used up your OBC

The range is small but you can order items and have them delivered to your home address for free. I ordered an iPhone that wasn't on board and it was delivered within 3 days after returning home. Apple products are slightly cheaper than UK stores plus your discount too.

Shame P&O had to choose Dixons, given its poor reputation for customer satisfaction (or maybe that's no coincidence!). One good thing though (see links):

 

"Shoppers can make the most of online-beating prices with the retailer’s ‘Double the Difference’ promise – find the same item cheaper at Amazon, John Lewis, Argos and Jessops (third party sellers excluded) and they will discount double the difference instantly."
