    :rotfl: you and me both i cant believe the price of the stand, what confused me is that it is listed under tv's and all the other tv's are tv's not stands. I thought it was cheap for a tv, but never dreamed a stand would be that much !! :eek:

    oh well

    or move it to the Argos board - someone might want a nice stand from there ;)

    might be a good idea to modify the title first though :)

    Not to worry we all make mistakes, my life is one BIG mistake :(

    Just goes to show that you need to read up on these things, rather like Ebay. They should of mentioned "for illustration purposes".

    oh, I dunno. If you've got a £2k plus plasma I don't think you'd want to trust it to sit on an mfi cabinet :rotfl:
