I'm looking for one at the moment as well (32 inch)
This is the cheapest I could find (299) - however I'm not sure re the quality - maybe someone knows/can comment

Not bad considering:

2 year warranty + Get the best out of your digital entertainment with the LE32C450 and its built-in MPEG4 tuner.

Do most Samsungs have an MPEG4 tuner?

BTW: I tried lookin for that link on the telly in tesco, does anyone have it?
thanks.

there's one for €260? in Swans electrical in Carlow. (Ad in the Laois Nationalist newspaper). I believe it's a spurious unknown brand though, and I'd wager it's probably not full HD. :cool:

Xtra Vision have a 32" AOC for 341.99. Had one for a few months, great TV.

I bought a "Hisense" 32" ex-display model in Harvey Normans two yrs ago for about €330. Had never heard of the brand, so was a bit sceptical, but have to say its a lovely tv and no probs with it. Only thing was it didnt come in its box, so not sure if id give one as a present, incase they'd think it fell off the back of a lorry:D

i got a 32inch samsung for €299, its fantastic, 3 hdmi slots, scarts, 2 seperate av slots, ...etc one at the side and one set at the back, it also comes with a digital tuner. full HD, and as far as i know you can purchase at a later date an add on to make it 3D capable! plus it has a sleep timer and other fairly decent/handy features.

Where did you get this? Sorry if you have said.

I got this TV in an eBay auction, from Luzerntech - they're based in Blanchardstown, if you win the auction you collect it there. They seem to sell loads of stuff on eBay, so it could be worth keeping an eye out there. I got mine for just €225 in the end - I was shopping around for the past couple of months, and didn't see a 32" TV for anywhere close to that - in fact most of the 21" ones I saw were more expensive! I'm really happy with it.

By the way, I know it's a fairly unknown brand and I know nothing about electronics - but it definitely does the job, as far as I'm concerned!

Had a look at Luzerntech last night, was looking at their website but they didn't have much on sale at all. Their ebay looks fantastic tho. Are all their items refurbished?

Mine was, but the only thing wrong with it was that the box it came in was damaged ... I rang them up to check that before I started bidding on it. They come with some sort of warranty anyways, and even if there's nothing wrong with it you can bring it back after you buy it and get a refund!

To be honest I wouldn't have been a bit bothered if it had been scratched or anything as long as it was working, at the time all I was looking for was a cheap (probably second-hand) TV, the fact that it's new and in completely perfect condition was just a bonus!

Also, I was well impressed with their customer service, when I was dealing with them by phone, email, and when I went to collect the TV. Oh but just one thing - you can only collect whatever you buy on Wednesday evenings, between (I think!) 5 and 8 pm.

Swear I don't work for Luzerntech, by the way ...

Thanks chatterpillar, think i'll buy from them. I'm going to keep an eye out for something larger than a 32", but cheeeeeeep.

What type of a warranty do they offer? Is it possible to get a extended warranty?

From an email I got from them -

New items will include a one year manufacturer's warranty (unless otherwise stated in the advert).

Refurbished items will include a 90-day warranty (unless otherwise stated in the advert).

Other Returns We accept returns on all products for any reason within 7 (seven) calendar days of receipt of your order. As long as the item is received intact and in re-saleable condition by us, we will issue you with a full refund of the price of the product including VAT.

Don't know about extended warranty!
