Hi All, Just wondering if anyone has bought a shop model t.v., at a reduced price naturally. I will still have a 5 year guarantee.

There shouldn't be a problem, TVs nowadays don't have a big set of buttons for children to play with so a showroom TV has suffered virtually no abuse at all. I'd go for it if the price is right. Examine the screen very carefully to make sure that there's no scratches (especially if the showroom has TVs on display at levels where kids can brush against them) and most importantly, look at the label on the rear and let the sales guy see you write down the model and serial number, that way they can't swap in some heap of crap from the store room that they damaged a few weeks earlier.
