Toshiba 37Z3030 - £800 - Bargain??
Hi,
I`ve been tracking this TV, today i notice sound & vision selling it for £800. The nearest price i could find is £999. Should i go for it or is there another TV that is better?
RE: Toshiba 37Z3030 - £800 - Bargain??
£800 delivered is the best price I`ve seen so far, so if this includes delivery I`d go for it. It is a good set.

My credit card`s twitching.
I just with to hell I could use my existing Toshiba stand, as it was expensive!
Bad enough getting the wife to agree to replacing a 7 month old telly, never mind the stand too... :(

Jacks Fish & Chips of Cambridge ridiculously overpriced and overpackaged chips. £1.20 for a stupidly small portion of chips - they need to go up north for a good lesson in fish and chips
Alloy Bodies of Manchester - The Grand Daddy & Benchmark for shockingly poor customer service.
Capital Bank Leasing who are part of [B]BOS & are f**ing useless & struggle to action the smallest request but are fantastically efficient at taking money out of my account
[B]Abbey National Absolutely diabolical service - how hard is it to change £60 of coins into notes????
....more coming soon no doubt.....

I have the 32WLT68 at the moment.
Cracking telly.
Wish I`d gone for the 37, but there you go.
If you`re happy with 720p/1080i (which most folk are), the WLT68 range is superb and has won everything going.
You`ll only need 1080p if you plan to watch HD-DVD/Bluray, or play HD games.
If you only want to watch SKY HD, a 720p telly will do you proud.
Considering I paid nearer £900 for my 32WLT68 in March, £580 for the 37 is an absolute bargain. 8)

Maybe by the public, but most AV magazines rate them very highly indeed.
Definitely making some of the best LCD`s just now.

Tosh isnt a brand i`d think `yeah Id` really like to own one of *those* badboys` kinda thing (despite having owned two brilliant ones for most of my life)
Its not a brand people `look up` to like Leowe, B&O, or even Sony....

Don`t think most people would consider Leowe or B&O - it`s not a brand you see in many High St/online retailers. Don`t know about Loewe but I`m certain that B&O gear is seriously expensive - in other words out of reach. Then there`s Sony which everyone knows and may cost a bit more than your average Tosh but are their TV`s any better ? They do make good ads though ;)

I guarantee more `average Joes` will have heard of Toshiba than Loewe or B+O.
They`re top-end stuff, completely outwith most peoples budgets.
As for Sony, I actually look down on them.
I think their styling is dull, the performancve of their products isn`t any better than anything else and they trade on their name.
In fact, if I see a Sony product in someone`s house, I often suspect they`re lazy and have bought `the badge`. :/
I`m not a particular Toshiba fan, I just wanted a recommended 32" LCD, that looked good.
The Toshiba I chose had won all sorts of independent tests, beating similar Sonys in the process, and looked good with it.

they trade on their name.Yup, quite true - and charge a premium over and above what the actual increase in quality is worth.

I don`t think there`s anything wrong in that though.

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..
