Do you mind me asking if you haggled the price down with sales people

It's amazing how many people won't do that... :rolleyes:

bought it from richersounds at the time, not Pcity.

From them it was the same price as powercity, but with a 4yr warranty and included delivery also so i went with RS in the end.

Hard luck on your LG but I have never had issue with an LG product and they are highly rated TV's. Unfortunately there will always be a few faultys out there but that's true of every brand.

People give LG TV's a hard time because they're more of a "budget brand" than your Sony or Samsung...

But I've got a LG 37LG3000 which is grand.. not as good as my 37" 1080p Sharp Aquos but the LG is 720p anyways.

PS - Wrong forum for this... it's more of a Request.

Samsung are in the same budget brand as LG, they both tend to release TV's to very similar spec and pricing at the same time. In fact I think there was a case against them for price matching or some legal mumbo jumbo. Plus a lot of other brands use LG or Samsung screens in their products.

Wow, that wasn't even close to on topic. Sorry.

Basq

No worries NothingMan.. but I rarely see a Samsung around the same price-tag as a similarly speced LG.

I take it you bought one of the ones with the well known faults of dead pixels or the ones that take sudden deaths within 3 months.

Walker are cheaper than LG & reliable TVs, we went with Walker as the it was Full HD 1080, better picture quailty than the LG & wayyy cheaper for a 46in than an LG 46in. I really didn't find the quailty of picture on a 50in LG or Samsung all that good as it was a 50in we wanted, the only one that did appear good was Sony & it was mad money. But very impressed with our Walker & everyone always comments on the size & quailty of the picture, most think its a 50in anyway!

You are indeed correct beanie

As budget brands go LG are quite good, lots of folks seem to confuse then with higher quality manufacturers, and expect (and sometimes pay) a lot more from them than they really are.
