Talk:Matsui (brand)

message: My comment about General Matsui being a war criminal, who was hanged for his part in the Rape of Nanking, was deleted as irrelevant.  All I can say is that I have never bought any Matsui products any more than I would buy something called "Eichmann", "Hitler", "Goebbels" etc.   The name "Matsui" might have been chosen because of ignorance by Dixons staff originally but it does seems incredibly bad taste to have such poor choice of a fictitious name.  I think the background of the name is very relevant.  --jmb 13:55, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I notice a similar reference has been deleted again.  It might be a common Japanese name but I think it is still relevant.  Is the Matsui or DSG PR department at work trying to remove any mention of this?   --jmb 08:51, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see how it is relevant the name is similar thats it how does it deserve being mentioned? Joeking16 (talk) 11:38, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

message: "some Matsui products are identical to Currys Saisho branded items."
Wasn't Saisho originally Dixons' brand and Matsui Currys'?
Is Saisho even being used any more? I haven't seen it for years, and the Saisho article backs this up (albeit without citation or source).

message: DSG encountered marketing difficulties with the slogan "Japanese Technology Made Perfect". This logo was adorned on a sizeable fleet of distribution trucks servicing the company's Stevenage and Newark main distribution centres and quickly withdrawn. The problem was that the products were not made in Japan, and in many instances, were not made perfect. This was highlighted on a BBC television program (name forgotten) hosted by Esther Ransten highlighting a Turkish made Matsui 25" CRT Television which received numerous consumer complaints.
