Answer 1

i dident think  lg made plasma only lcd? but then i might be wrong. go to a shop and look around for the best deal.

Answer 2

Well, look at it this way.  They have a choice of 5 shops in England, where you can go along and look at the products they are selling.  Just like any high street store.

Much safer than most on-line purchases...

Answer 3

Correct me if i am wrong but i believe they are running production down on plasma screens, i should look into this if you haven't already purchased. codger

Answer 4

I wouldn't spend tht sort of money on ebay, no cover.

Answer 5

Personally I would pay the full amount in the shops for a tv that has a guarantee. My 50" was bought brand new for a  thousand pounds last September, it has just had a new internal freeview box put in cos it wasn't working properly. Obviously this cost nothing but if anything goes wrong with one off e-bay you could end up spending a ton of money on it.

Answer 6

not on ebay no

ebay is dodgy

Answer 7

i brought one of these tvs no regrets excellent tv try first when you pick up though

Answer 8

picture doesnt look anything like an lg-tv to me . i got a good deal on an lg just before xmas . that was £585 for a 42"
