    Went to buy one in Wakey yesterday, the guy said that one on display was 'due out' but I could come in on Weds and order one for store delivery the following Tuesday ... or I could collect one in Leeds or Hudds (didn't fancy that)

    I went to Rotherham store today cos it's massive and they were priced up at £199 - salesman said they had changed price that morning and the guy in Wakey should have sold it to me at that price then ordered one in on Weds when they were back in stock .. !!

    Thing is, the website is still £129 .. if Wakey don't let me order one tomorrow at the cheapness price I am gonna check the web tomorrow .. and if not, order one from Argos with it's 56 day delivery .. I aren't in a hurry.

    OK - Argos it is - website says 'in stock' when I entered my order, still £129, and I receive a free £10 voucher as well ! Let's wait and see what happens ... still a bit excessive for a bedroom telly though, I don't think my undies drawers will stand the strain :-)

    Well, we set ours up yesterday and are very pleased with it. It's much better than the TV it replaces (although that's no major achievement! ;)) and the picture quality is very good. We have it in our lounge (a bigger TV would just be too big for the room) and it seems quite adequate!

    I've just ordered one, I do hope it comes with a stand. I don't fancy trying to track one down. If anyone else can confirm how theirs arrived I would appreciate it?
