New tv

My tv has packed up so want to buy a new one but don't have much money!


Just after a flat screen 34 inch, preferably a known reliable make. Anyone have any suggestions or know of any good offers?

    Sony Bravia and LG are a decent makes. Try places like Richer sounds. But it would be good if you posted a budget so people can suggest in your price range

    Another vote for Richer Sounds. I would advise buying a cheap "supermarket brand".


    Is 34" a standard size? I think 32" is a lot more common. I have one in my reasonably large living room and it does me fine.

    OP buy a well known make Panasonic, Sony or Samsung, worth looking at John Lewis they give a five year warranty with their TV's.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I only want to spend a maximum of £300 but would prefer to spend in the region of £200 to £250.
