I won a TV

I was a bit naughty and put some bids on a TV on a reverse auction competition, I won a 32" LCD Philips TV for 85p lol...

Recieved it at the weekend when Comet delivered it....

I don't know why I entered for the TV as I've no need for it, got a plasma and a smaller philips lcd for the bedroom...now I need to get rid of it...it's aparantly worth £600!!!! any ideas on where to flog it other than ebay?

    oooh where do you do reverse auctions, Ive been looking for these, but not sure which are genuine :confused:

    Well done you- I would go ebay or failing that Loot.
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Thank you all...the site was, and wasn't sure if I was allowed to advertise it was here the texts were £1.50 each, plus your network rate. which I didn't read up on at first.

    Do be careful though, they kept sending me text messages with last minute auctions, one was for a laptop, said it was an hour auction ended at say 5pm, the instructions were to reply to the message to enter, I did this, got a reply only to be informed that I was entered into another draw, not the one advertised.

    Even though I have won, I'm still trying to claim back money as I was entered in to the wrong draw (17 messages)!
