Title: Christmas Sales
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 25 December 2009, 03:29:36
I have been after an LCD TV for quite away, so with my "little trip away for a while" I decided to wait for the sales.

Ebuyer said they were having a massive sale on thier hime page, but finished by saying beat the VAT increase on Jan 1st......  :-X

Any way thier flier came through with the sale prices on,  wonder why I actually bothered waiting for what the discounts are, was hoping for better deals on TV's than I have seen so far.

Looks ok to me Steve, just too small for me.


Looking for a min of 42", maybe a 46" Samsung, but there are some good prices on 50" screens as well.

Because some shops offer instore bargains they dont offer online, some have limited stock, some do huge discounts to get rid of old stock.

Oh!  and some people are just plain daft and que all night anyway.  :-X

Looking at thier site with 50% and even 70% off it seems it makes people selfish and they want it 1st.  :-X
