If its advertised in the newspaper it should be on a pallet beside the front door or in the main aisle leading in from the front door. It could only be the 'extra' stores.

Nope, no sign in my local extra store. After one for a bedroom. Might try once more tomorrow, after that ill just give up looking. Very disappointing seeing a Samsung box from a distance only to realise its the 19" for 200

Tesco pullout in indo today with ad of the tv.

It's in their online magazine too, p14: http://www.tesco.ie/pricenews/

Front cover says from 6th January - maybe that first batch was just to see if they'd sell, and there'll be several pallets in stores for the next few days.

Or maybe they fcuked up and put them out early.

Or (most likely) it's just a marketing ploy to get people into the shop.

I don't really need a TV, but at that price, even I'm tempted.

IrishHomer · 06-01-2011 9:16pm

I have gone into Tesco on Thursday mornings for similar ads on the Indo in the past only to find none and when i ask staff they always say they are sold out :mad: eventually i copped on and stopped getting excited by those ads and stopped going in wasting an hour of my time.

They wander around looking for the unavailable TV. only to then buy something else so they don't go home empty handed?

Wallmart do this by advertising a really really cheap applicance that is available in store but most people upgrade to a more expensive but better quality appliance when they come in the store and are confronted with a more expensive but more attractive product. Difference here is tesco dont even have them in store!

One in the Tesco brochure I have says it is the T200HD - a 20" screen - still - good value if it does the full Saorview. - says "Full HD 1080p".

So if it is a different offer to the 22" originally posted, maybe there will be stock for customers?

Is £289 on Amazon!

Think I'll head down to Tesco Douglas this morning and see if they have any left.

Waterford:

According to Tesco Ardkeen, no Waterford store got them.

According to Tesco Lisduggan, no Waterford store got them or will get them as these type of offers only apply to the Dublin stores.

Can't find the number for Ballybeg. Poleberry not answering.

Is this the t200hd you asked about?

Seriously if Ardkeen didn't get any its a case for the asai: http://www.asai.ie/complain.asp

Going out there later, will ask, but won't be buying, on a serious budget!

Yup.

Conversation with Ardkeen was like this:

Good morning, I'm calling in relation to a TV I've seen in your flyer.
Oh yes, the Samsung T200HD is it, the 20" one for €99?
etc etc..

I got an inkling I wasn't the first caller..

54kroc · 07-01-2011 1:02pm

Douglas and Mahon didn't get them today either,So tomorrow morning is a good bet.
I was told the pallet they got last week in Mahon went in under an hour.

johnny_adidas · 07-01-2011 2:07pm

where is the 22" coming from, the original post was about the 20" T200 also. I believe this is as others have said, they have no stock, will not be getting any further stock in and are only using the advert to get people in store to buy other things

Shirley dat's irregal?

CreepingDeath · 07-01-2011 2:41pm

I checked the Tesco in Jervis St shopping centre.

They had none.
They said each store only got 1 or 2 sets.
She didn't even bother checking the stock system.

Kotek Besar · 07-01-2011 2:49pm

Ah man, this is blatant gaming by Tesco staff. :mad:

None in Galway last night

None in Ashbourne either.

Can anyone that manages to get one say where they got it?

I recall these shenanigans going on at Tesco every January for the last few years.

Drummerboy2 · 07-01-2011 5:53pm

The guy in Tesco laughed when I asked about this in Clearwater. Said they only got a couple of these in before Christmas and they were snatched up by staff before they went on general sale.

Spoke to a manager said to be "the man" for electrical items in Douglas about noon today - he said they had only received 2 of the items and that was yesterday. Said he had lots of people asking about them..... I didn't ask if staff had bought any. Neither did he suggest there were any more coming in.
Said he had one of the Sony 40" ones in the warehouse - dunno why it was not out on display though.

yoshytoshy · 07-01-2011 7:16pm

This really shows tesco up as a kip ,if they don't have reasonable stock.

viking · 07-01-2011 8:44pm

Mullingar, Kinnegad, Edenderry and Maynooth had none.

One of the managers told me that they were putting in a complaint to head office about the shenanigans, said he had lots of people asking about it due to advertising in national press...

yoshytoshy · 07-01-2011 11:00pm

I want to get a small tv for my bedroom ,funny that.

ibFoxer · 07-01-2011 11:35pm

Managed to get the 2ND LAST one in Tesco Nenagh today (third really but the manager was picking one up for himself

)

Apparently they are only being sent to certain stores and the stocks are fairly low. He only found the 3 today around 1pm so someone might get lucky?

Multi billion euro making store ,publicises 125 tv's.

no wonder their creaming it.

Dj · 09-01-2011 6:42pm

2 in the Naas store, is this not the biggest Tesco in Ireland.
And only 1 unit in other stores whats the point?

Mr McBoatface · 09-01-2011 6:49pm

I imagine it's just ex-UK stock being sold off cheap here so numbers will be limited. UK customers won't buy these TV's because they just do Freeview ... in the UK they want TV's that work with FreeviewHD.

You'll see lots more of these bargain TV's being dumped on the Irish market because the UK customers no longer want them.

Barr · 14-02-2011 3:52pm

It was never opened so I guess the staff member must have changed his mind or something. It was in the storeroom and had to ask if they had any left.

davehey79 · 14-02-2011 4:08pm

i was of the assumption that these are not wall mountable i stand to be corrected but i had the previous non mpeg4 one and it didnt have any mounting point
