The telly has landed

48". Is that all? ;-)

Are you sure you're cut out for contracting if thats all you can afford?

BTW. We got a 3D TV. Bought the glasses - another £30 or so a pair. Used them once. Can't be arsed to sit there and watch TV with glasses on my head. (But then I'm the same in the cinema - avoid 3D cos it just does my head in).

he isn't on benefits so he doesn't need to buy the biggest in the block

Must admit I'm admiring the 100" tellies, the 50" looks tiny on the new wall.

Wall hung are fine, very comfortable to watch if hung correctly.

Fits fine. I can sit there and watch it whilst eating my Iceland chicken nuggets...

we got a smart 3d Samsung for 650 quids. 48 incher

I know your time is probably better spent invoicing than researching TV technology, but 650 for 48 is not that good a ratio, even if you think you you need anything else but the pixels and the remote.
A quick google shows this hi-end 46" Samsung for £429.
If I was to to buy at high street, I'd gone for John Lewis as they give 5 year warranty and they will price match Currys/PC World.
Finally, it's probably fairly obvious that pre-Christmas is not the best time to buy, just a few days more and the bargains kick-in, few more days and the 2015 models kick in (same as 2014 but 2014 ones will be cheaper), then there's CES in Vegas and come February retailers will be begging you to take the once shiny 2014 model off their inventory.

But I guess it also means you can enjoy some quality TV with the missus during those few precious days where you can't invoice even if you wanted to....

Price matched with some manky independent shop by John Lewis. Just under a £1000 it was. Bargain.

60" PLG Plasma.

I wouldn't call bottom of the range 6000 series top of the range. Just about acceptable if on the dole would be a better statement.

You really want something better and faster as the screen size increases...
