Looking for tv stand, ebay ones any good?

I'm looking for a tv stand for up to 40-42" lcd (have'nt got one yet,but it's inevitable ).
The ones i have been looking at on ebay seem okay, but wondered if anyone here has the same unit and could comment.
Here's an example of what i was looking at, i have seen them sell for around £70 all in: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GT4-Black-Glas...QQcmdZViewItem

I'm sure people can talk at you till your ears bleed about why theirs is better, but it's fine and will do a job.

I've got a similar one and it holds my 42" telly and toys perfectly well.

Wire clutter is a pain in the arse, but hey ho.

I bought a picture mount the same colour as my walls(you could always paint it if you cant get a colour match), cut it to fit between the two rear poles and it creates an optical illusion of no wires. Looks surprisingly good...
