    All retailers selling electronic goods have a legal requirement to take any old equipment you have (even if they don't sell you something new) OR they have to give you information about a place you can take it and pay that place, i.e. the local CA site.

    By doing this they are taking the 1st, and cheaper, option as they then can have control over who recycles the goods. The mark up on the TVs is so huge and the savings quite good and thus Sony are laughing all the way to the bank.

    Your best bet is actually to go to the Sony store with a specific model in mind and the prices charged for it by other stores including online retailers, get your trade in discount and then haggle like mad. Any sales man who can't give you another £50-£100 off of a £500ish model isn't worth speaking to - go straight to the manager!

    bear in mind that quidco offer 8% cashback for Tesco Direct orders

    So £549 minus £100 from SONY = £449

    8% quidco = £35.92 = £413

    1098 clubcard points = approximately £10

    So just over £400 for this tele is a bit of a deal then???
    Can anyone suggest otherwise before I buy it, thanks

    Re. the inbuilt Freeview, I guess this isnt the sort you can record from? I have a recordable Freeview box at present, how could I replicate this if I go for this deal? Would I need to buy another Freeview box to go with it? Is there such a thing as inbuilt recordable Freeview?

    thanks
