Philips - 23 inch widescreen LCD TV - £448????!!!!

Don't know if this is a major pricing error or if this particular LCD TV is rubbish, but it seems like a quite unbelievable price for a Philips 23 inch widescreen LCD TV with Virtual Dolby.

The £448 price is inclusive of delivery (an extoronate £34.99) but given the total it equals a bargain!

I am surprised at the price particularly as other retailers are selling this at prices between £700 and, wait for it - £1499 at Harrods!

Anyway, wanna try your luck? Go to:

MERRY BOXING DAY!

P.S: Any reviews of this TV would be welcome, so people can make an informed choice!

P.P.S: Electrical World seems to have a mixed rating on Pricerunner, so any user opinions of this company would be welcome!

    That's put the cat amongst the pigeons here cos I've gone and purchased it! However, as I've paid by Credit Card I think I'll be adequately protected if things go pear shaped  :-/ I think given PhilUK's comments, if anyone is interested in purchasing this then only pay by credit card and not debit card - just in case!

    Hello again!

    I did a search on the Watchdog site and there was nothing about Electrical World, but a site called 'Everything Electrical' (I remember the latter being discussed on this forum a month ago and they were being investigated on by police)

    However, I should stress (and can't stress it enough!) pay by credit card and not debit card for this purchase for your own protection as there will be adequate recourse available to you IF things go wrong!

    :-) HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR Y'ALL!

    Am i correct in presuming you won't be ordering 29+ based on this "Watchdog" information?

    Personally I've just ordered the one, as my credit card is nearly maxed out!! 29 could make nice LCD wallpaper!
