Seems a good price for a fairly well reviewed Ultra HD TV. I think its a 2015 model. Amazon price is £849.
Question is, will it be cheaper on black Friday?

Looks pretty good but could really do with 5/6 year warranty! :stuck_out_tongue:

my 46" LG is still going strong after 7 years. I can't wait for it to break down so I can justify upgrade...

Bought one thing off CPC, it didn't arrive but one thing DID which I hadn't even realized was in the basket. TBF they didn't take the money, and offered to refund but as I'd have to send it back and it was less than £2 - still, not a positive only purchase.

Same here! Mine is a 47 inch LG, I use it for 1-3 hours every day and hasn't skipped a beat in 6 years. It's a Full HD panel but no bells and whistles at all. The Koreans make these to last I guess.

on the flip side
if your buying an LG TV make sure you get one with a 5/6 year warranty. I brought a LG 47LN575V 47 Inch Smart LED TV in December 2013 lasted 18 months and the screen died. Contacted the retailer and LG themselves and they didn't want to know. LG TV's only come with a 12 month warranty. £461 for a TV that lasted 18 months is poor by anybody standards.

Have a look at the link below. My son used this recently to get his 2 year old, nine month tv repaired. The tv had hardly been used. If it had been my tv it would have failed within the first year. If you still have the tv and the receipt you can claim under EU law which states you do not have to prove it was an inherent fault, i.e. it was there when manufactured.
The above is an old thread and the consumer law changed in October 2015 however your tv is 18 months old and is not affected by the new laws. You may wish to google consumer law 2015 to cover any issues you may have on later purchases.
The more people use our laws set up to protect the consumer the more manufacturers will put into research and development and use decent parts in their products that will last.
