there is a 30" version, they seem to be otu of stock but when its in they usually sells for about £300, if you want to hold on and wait for that.

Interesting!

Having recently broken the TV in my bedroom(my parents were right as it transpires....no ball games indoors), this does look like a bargain.

I was at John Lewis today(ok not the cheapest shop for price comparison) and most of the TV's i was looking at were roughly £1000. They were mostly 32" as well.

So my question is does anyone actually own one of these TV's and are they actually any good? Normally with something like this i wouldn't venture from the 'main brands'.....i've never heard of Hannspree before!

As i only really use my bedroom TV for games.....it doesn't have to be as good as my lounge TV.

It's also £375 (inc delivery) from Amazon, and they have a much better reputation for customer service than ebuyer.

The cheapest that I've seen the Hanspree 37" is here.

Mrs Wyrdness wants a TV (we don't have one at present), so I'm very tempted by this.

I know v. little about the subject, but if I were in the market, I could be tempted by this...

http://www.richersounds.com/showprod...d=HITA-L37V01U

I have a 32" Tosh CRT telly, bought at vast expense (£1500 from memory) 6 or 7 years ago, so I'd not get away with replacing it yet. Anyway, it's got a Dolby 5.1 decoder built-in with outputs for all the speakers. But it's huge and takes up SOOO much room!

I wouldnt buy stuff from richers sounds...ever! I use to work across the road from the London brideg branch. Watched loads of happy people carrying boxes to thier car, then 2 days latter seeing them all come back! Thier stuff, although they state is not seconds, im not so sure!

As for Ebuyers Custome service. I had a great experience with them when a HDD didnt arrive. Gave me a full refund no worries at all.

TVs should be measured in inches, not yards
