I would search a few Argos. They have them in Tonbridge wells and there is an JL home there too.

"I have checked with Argos and have found that they do not currently have stock of the Samsung UE32J5100 LED Full HD 1080p TV, 32" with Freeview HD, therefore on this occasion I cannot match the price quoted by Argos."

I rang my local jl at bluewater and they said I could order it and they would do the price match. They then got the price match dept to ring and said its not in stock so they wont price match. Also none instock at local argos how are you all getting jl to price match?

Picked one up from argos Milton Keynes today. Not opening just yet as I have one on order at John Lewis Milton Keynes who have said they will only price match at the time the TV comes in so fingers crossed argos keep the price down!

Argos Harrow still has stock so if you live near or need a reference store with stock for JL price match use that one...

Anybody got a link for the best settings for these tv's.Had a look but can't find anything.Cheers

Generally for Sammys:
Contrast 100
Brightness 45-50
Sharpness 0
Colour: 45 - 50
Backlight as low as you can bear.
In the picture options (or something) completely turn off dynamic contrast and other unnecessary effects like 'noise filter'. Basically turn all the picture-bastardising features off. That's your starting point - what you see is what is being broadcast/input (pretty much). Then if you want to turn-on the picture-'enhancing' features one by one to see if you like them - go at it!

Purchased this from Richer Sounds for £249.99, with 6 year guarantee last week. Very impressed with it so far. Heat added

They won't price match this as it's not an equivalent deal, ie, it doesn't include a free 6 year warranty.
Although JL are oos

Ordered from John Lewis and it arrived yesterday. They have confirmed just now they will price match.

Really good TV... it even picks up my NAS drive which is a bonus and means I don't have to route stuff via my ps3 (apols if I'm behind the times - I don't buy TVs very often lol). I bought it from ebay when then had their 20% off everything event... money well spent! A recent update means you can use ITV player (it wasn't available when it was first launched apparently).

Update: [email protected] have cancelled order, and suddenly they're not available in any store anywhere near :0( Gutted cos I used a 10% cash back from Nationwide which can only be used once and finishes today.

Ordered for collection in 4 days from argos. Local John Lewis reckons they have stock coming on 12th so I'll call them then and cancel argos if needs be.

I got the basic 40 inch one last week for our bedroom and blows away the LG 50 inch one down the stairs for a fraction of the price.I humphed and hayed because off people posting about sound and umpteen other things i had never even heard off but since its came, i realise that most of the things pointed out are way over the top unless your reading what tv and hifi.

So just collected mine from JL as they agreed the Price Match. Its for my eldests room and is a great TV. Last week I got the Sony KD-65x8509C and the menu and system on the Samsung is better.
It has both an analog and digital TV tuner so the old Sky HD magic eye works and then Smart Hub is great. Logged her into Netflix and Amazon Prime and away you go.
Havent changed any picture settings but its a great piece of kit.

I bought mine for £169 from Tesco Outlet a few months ago. It was classed as refurbished, but looked new to me. Worth checking there as they sometimes have genuine bargains.
Anyways, £228 is a bargain for this fantastic TV.

Bought this for £228 from amazon warehouse 5 days ago. Not opened yet so will probably return and either buy from argos or JL if they have stock in my local.

Are the smart features really worth 50 quid more than the non smart version?

Avaliable in Swansea @Pontadulais & Morfa.
So with that in mind, why are JL not price matching?
EDIT: Its actually out of stock at JL (Smacks head!)

Ooohhhh dear, I had been waiting for this TV to come into stock at JL, Currys or Argos. Eventually got one from JL at £249 this Monday. Now the price has gone down. I'm gonna call JL and see what they can do. Thanks for the update and have some heat

Yes they have and I have a code. That's what's wrong with never knowingly undersold. They clearly know now they are but won't change it.
