    Anyone who has bought this tell me if it is multi-system for the TV signal? ie is it PAL only or can it do SECAM?

    TIA

    Many thanks lets hope we get it now. Lost out last time when there was triple points on it now this time only single points have we an argument for the difference in the points?:)
  • Missed out last time, too. (Accepted order, then notified 2 days later that no stock left).

    Just wasted another 35 minutes trying to place an order; initially, could not get past the 'delivery details' page, then - when I eventually managed this - entered payment details and ended up with 'Refresh Page'.

    This kept happening, so it look like losing out again.

    Not a happy bunny!
    If it's cheap, I'm cheerful!

    Looking at the Technical Specifications, it just says PAL, no mention of SECAM.

    Feel a bit guilty reading this thread <waits for stuff to be thrown ;)> as I managed to get 2 for family use during the triple points offer. I didn't even see it here, it was Reestit Mutton who posted it in alt.consumers.uk-discounts.and.bargains. He also listed other good value items and priced them with the triple points discount plus other discount codes such as 10% off. Unfortunately the TV/DVD can't be used with other offers such as codes but it's a great price anyway. Reestit is very knowlegeable on bargains and has a website - http://www.users.totalise.co.uk/~lauriem/index.html. Hope you all get them this time. :)

    Thanks for telling me about this offer. Ordered yesterday and opted for next day delivery. Just checked my emails and they said it has been dispatched. Should come today.
