    Default New TV

    I want to buy a new TV and am trying to decide where to go to buy it. Of course there's the likes of Argos, Currys and DID but I'd prefer for my money to stay in Ireland so that's the first two out.

    There aren't that many small independent retailers around any more, I guess they've been driven out of business by the big guys. However I would like to put my business towards one of the smaller guys. Possibly I'll be sacrificing choice but can anyone recommend an independent operator in Dublin worth paying a visit ?

    Online shopping is the best What ya mean you would like your money to stay in Ire, Do ya tell the girls not to be sending any money home when ya pay them

    If you can get a 50'' for 600E of net and its 700E in Dub. Take the one of net obviously, don't think the electrical shop guy will come complaining because ya bought it offline

    It wouldn't do any harm to check if the TV your planniing to buy will play video files such as *.mkv, *.mp4, *.avi, etc. Some do, some don't. Most TV's these days have a USB port on the back which allows the user to plug in a pen drive or external hard disk in order to play films from them. Do your homework and search Youtube for reviews of the ones your interested in.
