    Just an FYI

    A mate bought a Samsung LE46A558P3F 46 Inch 1080P Full HD Ready LCD TV on this site a few weeks ago. Including £49 sterling for delivery is cost in total €870. The exact same television is in Powercity for €1199

    Thats €329 difference! :eek: :D

    Hopefully I will be getting one next month :D

    Have purchased from them also. Even with €50 stg deliver, they are still competitive. 3 days for delivery. No issues. Best of luck; nice TV by the way.

    Wait.. this looks very similar to... yea it's the same company as laptops direct :P look at the amount of pain people had to go through with them :P Including me :P I would avoid, and pay the extra money elsewhere :P They are cheap but if you get something that's damaged, it's a month/2 of hell trying to send it back :P

    I've got a Plasma TV from them a month or so ago - well worth it. Saved about 200euro on the TV. If it goes wrong, I will bring it back to Panasonic Ireland :)

    Sams yer man also has a price promise so I suppose if you find it somewhere else they will match.

    found them great too as are richersounds, both offer great value without dealing with big organisations who only care about the sell and not the customer care

    Ahh FFS!!!!

    I just bought a TV that would have been 100 euro less on Samsyourman...
    Balls!
    It's like in poker when you fold a hand that turned out would have won. Nothing ya can do about it i guess :(

    I'm in the market for a new TV but the wall it would be against is exactly 32" so are there only 26" & 32" TV's available??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,625 ✭✭✭Sconsey


    +1 for directtvs

    I bought one off them before Christmas, saved €300 over the price in Currys. Delivery was fast and painless :)

    Bought a 42" LCD from Samsyerman a week ago. €830 including delivery (ordered Weds, arrived Fri). Cheapest in ROI was €1069 excluding delivery.

    The screen size is measured diagonally, not widthwise, but obviously there is the bezel etc.

    I'd measure in cms then look up the actual size of any tv online. A Sony Bravia 32" LCD-TV KDL-32W4000 is just shy of 32" across at 79.4cm.

    after all the pixmania stories, I'd prefer to buy off one of the many stores in North that at least have a store but give great online prices too. Samsyerman and richersounds offer great service, bought off both and would do so again. Got a samsung 215 surround system for 233euro last week delivered to Cork, 360 in argos book and would have been 225 off pixmania
