Sony 28" WEGA Bargain
I've been looking into gettin this tv for my parents x-mas gift and have been attempting to get it off John Lewis for the 5 year guarantee benefit. Only yesterday, the price was a reasonable £299. I went online today and found that they've reduced it to a mere £229! 
It isn't in stock at the moment, they appear to have been waiting on it for some time now, but it remains a bargain imo.
See it here |

Currys do now but it was 319.99 only yesterday (as was JL price), but JL give you the 5 yr guarantee, hence my point...although Currys charge 19.99 for delivery and JL is free. |

Moob,
Look through the Forum and you'll see JL Customer Service is very highly rated.
Now look at members' opinion of Comet/Currys!
Remember, price isn't everything. 
(Also, the free JL guarantee means your parents will get a prezzy that will last at least 5 years without worries. )
You know it makes sense!  |

enter "kelkoo" under the vouchers option for free delivery  ("MAC5" gives you an extra 5% off but it's supposed to be for McDonalds employees so they may call you up to check) not as good as a 5 year warranty I agree, but if it's the last resort. |

TG I reckon you've misinterpreted my perspective...I preferred JL, the other fella made the suggestion of Currys...  |

Is Jessops the photography chain store owned by John Lewis? Or have I confused things even further. |

Ordered one of these, would be rude not to at the price (and the fact that I have the amasing ability to break a tv just outside of the 1 year warranty)! Reviews I've read don't look too shabby. Any owners want to add their own comments regarding the set?
