  • This one is out of stock at the min, but keep an eye on it for more stock.
    Its a 42" Samsung plasma selling for £529.99 and it has a 20,000-1 contrast ratio too.

    Thre is a growing movement to make plasma TVs illegal, so it might be saving you a problem in the future.

    Things go up in price, it happens. Wait a while and it might come down in price again.

    If it's available cheaper somewhere else, then don't buy it from Amazon. They aren't the only retailer that sells this television.

    currently £539 - Amazon watch alot of other website and change prices alot to reflect the competition
  • If there is something I want from Amazon and the prices are up and down, I always put it in my basket and wait. If the price drops it will automatically be shown then you can decide if to buy or not.
    :confused: you are as you are, if you aren't as you ought to be.
