I want to buy a 42” LCD TV as cheaply as possible

It must be:
42”
LCD
Wall Mountable
HD ready (or full HD but I know that’s highly unlikely on my budget)
Have PC input (D-sub)
Have 1 year guarantee (min)
Brand new
It would be better if it was:
A good brand
From Argos
Currently, well yesterday, the cheapest I could have got was £474 delivered. As I have seen one that meets my requirements in Argos sale for under £400 but missed it due to no stock left I have decided to wait to try and find a better deal. Any ideas welcome but my criteria, above, are not negotiable – I am not interested in plasma, refurbished, etc. etc – and there is now 14/09/09, no stock of the two obvious choices on Argos website.
Thanks in advance.

I'd check www.argos.co.uk for 42'' LCDs if I was you

Are you deliberately being a nob? It is a serious question and my use of the words 'must' and 'would be better' clearly distinguish what is required from what is preferable.
Any serious advice would be appreciated.0 -

I was deliberately being a nob. I mean, why wouldn't people sit trawling through tvs only for your very specific requirements to rule out most options

I'm not asking or expecting them to but the idea of this site is to share information and help others save money and someone may have recently purchased a similar TV that would be good for me. My requirements are specific but they are all pretty standard.MUMMYTO2BOYS wrote: »I was deliberately being a nob.
