    It's depends when you bought it and what specifications the PC has. If you bought it recently you can take the old one back and purchace a new one from Powercity but if you bought it over a month ago then that could explain the price difference as newer models come out which mean the older models need to be reduced in price.

    Sorry you paid so much but prices do vary greatly. Advice for the future -
    Look around the stores - if you see what you like get the price, also check make and model number.
    Go home and check on the internet - on one of the price checker websites and you will almost certainly come up with a much cheaper price than you saw in store

    It's called market forces mate. That's what you get for not shopping around.
