Sony KLV-32U100M £216 32" HDTV

Is this ridiculously cheap or is it just me

I haven't calculated the shipping costs but the price on the site says £216 for a Branded 32" 720p LCD HDTV.

And here's the link...

Thinking about buying one for my 360/PS3.

Chris.

Just registered, FREE DELIVERY but you need to spend $500 USD or more, or in other words 2 TV's.

Anyone up for a Group Buy

This is a SCAM site. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. If the price is too good to be true - it probably is!

It says they have distributions in Italy so they have a EU version as well apparently, i'm not buying from there anyway.

Agreed. Western-Union only? - Definitely a scam I'd say. It's an untraceable money transfer method that even Western Union admit quietly you shouldn't use unless you know the other person very well on a personal level and it's someone you trust..
