How much can I ask for a Sence 32" HDTV with one line of dead pix

[LiamGTR]

Bought myself a new TV yeterday because my old one had a line of dead pixels like so:

But the dead pixels go from left to right along the bottom of the TV.

 

£300 new

 

What can I ask now you think? Don't wanna rip my mate off, but also don't wanna rip myself off.

See what he offers. A TV with 1 dead line of pixels will only end up as a TV with loads of lines of dead pixels so if he offers you £50 then Whoohoo!

[Scort_CVH]

Be a mate and give him it, as if he never asked for it it would of ended up in the bin

[LiamGTR]

It was going on eBay before he asked, technically it's not my mate...it's my mates brother, but not one to clutch at straws

[Craig855S]

put it on ebay, send him the link. Its worth what people are willing to pay, if no-one thinks it worth anything then he'll be one of the only bidders and get it for cheap (and easy collection) if people do want it then it may go for far more than you and he expected.

 

If you've not had it long why not take it back the shop and give it the "trading standards" balls

[LiamGTR]

It's well out of warranty had it about 2 or so years I think, it was only a "sence" tv anyway so no wonder it's went balls up.

 

Might still use eBay

[wwwd]

Tell him you were/are going to put it on eBay and ask him what his offer is.

 

If it's over £100 then bite his arm off!

AV inputsW: Rear - 2 HDMI on side

 

2 not 4.

 

it's 50hz so no good or should i say not as good as 100/200hz.

 

BUT i have two friends, that work in currys and comet - that both sell said above model so COULD have gotten cheaper.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but that's model (2 generations on) that i wanted instead of the 40" i've got now so good choice....little rubbish!

 

youtube would be getting abused to fook lol

[mac456]

Regardless of that site, it's got 4 ... 2 on side, 2 on back... pictures of proof - Also I got it from Fenwicks because it Comet/Currys wanted £50 more, so don't think you could have got me it any cheaper.

For £299, with all the features this one has got?

I know which one i'd have, as if any of us would even be able to tell the difference, it's a rubbish load faster than my old TV anyway so it'll do me, i've had to get used to playing F1: 2010 again because of the faster TV.

 

Next? Or back to topic?

Looks like you've got a bargain, mate - and that John Lewis guarantee is worth its weight in gold and is something you wouldnt get from currys/comet anyway. Most of the guarantees they offer are 3 year ones and cost a fortune.

 

And don't listen to all that 50/100/200Hz nonsense - its akin to the whole "Ive got an air filter, 2L cams and stainless back box on my 1.6 escort and produces a billion bhp"-thing in the car world, its all meaningless sales jargon.

 

Whats next, media centre PC?

Best thing I did that.

Window7 running its own media centre with a romote from the US (ebay) for £15.

Ive got one setup on an old dell PC sat under my tv. Its just running XP at the minute, but might upgrade to something a bit more modern...

Also considering chucking in a blu ray drive, but I just cant justify £40 on something when Im perfectly happy with DVD - its not like the massive jump in usability between VHS and DVD.
