That's not the first time I have hears such advice John. Not just the g'tee but generally good prices and service. Funny, must be the marketing (or lack of) or that our nearest JL is 5 (traffic filled) miles away but I just thever think of using them ..?
They offer
Indded .. and probably the same argument I gave my friend when she asked me which one to buy .. 'none' .. (she likes her gadgests but hasn't really got the spare cash to spend on them) ;-(
All the best ...

B&D? Grown up to become a fine router table?
Summat like that .. and funny you should say ... ;-)
I did a few diy jobs for her one day and whilst down the sheds I mentioned 'we' didn't have a bench or anything to work on (cutting sheets of chip / mdf).
I saw a pair of basic plastic folding trestles and she said 'let's get them' ..
So after I had finished most of the list she has created I was given a nice dinner and a pair of new trestles for my day's efforts ;-)
I did talk her through fault finding a problem with her washing machine over the phone, she then (with help from me via good folk on this list) ordered the spares (water diverter?) and fitted it herself .. ;-)
So she's willling to 'have a go' herself so I don't mind helping anyone who thinks like that ;-)
All the best fella ..

She's a 'bigger lady' has a heart of gold, great sense of humour and I would love to see her settle down with the perfect man .. shame (for her) I'm taken ;-)

Hmm... Isn't the minimum warrenty in the Eu now 36 months? Up recently from 24 months? Shouldn't the telley thus still be under warrenty...
I assumed that was why the local TV shop (Lakes) now advertises all their tellys with a 3 year warrenty... (Wheras they used to be just 12 months when I bought mine about 4 years ago). [Nothing but good results from buying from them BTW. Not a slong a warrenty as JL, but they are specialist & have a lot more knowledge...].
The legislation is woolly, as I understand it. However, one year would be regarded as a very short "life" for a TV, so it's worth the argument, yes.
Erm, although there *could* be some benifits I have enough trouble with the one I've got thanks ;-)
All the best ..

Unfortunatly the shop she bought itself has since gone and the makers (Samsung) don't seem to want to know? ;-(
I have had stuff go wrong within the yeah and even though we couldn't find the receipt had it repaied under warantee becuse it was *made* less than a year ago? You would have thought Samsung might had done the same?
Maybe had she threatned a 'legal fuss' they might have done somthing for her .. and she still might ned to but ....
However, I got this from her yesterday after I asked her to do the 'check it in bright light' thing ..
"Well, B****r me!
I forgot to do this when I got home last night, but then I woke up at
3.30 this morning and thought that I may as well try it as it is a good time with it being dark etc.So I switch on the TV, and blow me down if it didn't work!
Now, before you say anything, I had tried it several times over a period of a few weeks and could not get it to do anything, I had tried adjusting all sorts of things and had even followed the destruction manual for this type of fault, but could not get it to work.... "
Strange eh?
All the best ..

I did have a brief look at Samsung's UK site to see if they had any standard warranty terms. I certainly had a Samsung CRT a few years ago that had a
3-year rtb warranty, and it was nowhere near as expensive as a TFT TV.But they are at the cheaper end of the price spectrum. There's a lot of truth in the dictum "you gets what you pays for".
