have any of you had any dealings with TINY.COM i was interested in one of their 42" plasma tvs I have e mailed 3 times with no reply for a quotation they must not want business

customer service has gone to the dogs
 
tiny r shite, i bought a 42" jvc plasma from comet with 5 yr cover plan

as its a plasma i wud buy it from a proper comp with cover pln just in case,

but if u want somthing cheap try richersounds http://www.richersounds.com/
 
i wouldnt recommend tiny at all. i bought a pentium 133mhz pc with a printer from them in 1996, for over £1,500. and the first time i unpacked it, and put the computer together. the pc monitor didnt even turn on. after a phone call to tiny they said to open the case and push down the graphics card because they sometimes become loose during transit. at first it worked but then the screen kept going blank. then i returned the pc. ive heard other people have experienced these problems to. pathetic really considering the pc was brand new.
 
tiny are wank

i reckon 50% of the PC repairs i have done have been tiny... i fooking hate them, worst ever i would not piss on their company if it was on fire !
 
And what makes it even worse is the are owned by TIME crappy computers so they are getting worse by the minute........KEEP WELL CLEAR

Time truly are rubbish. Someone I know has had to return his PC 3 times to them because of major hardware faults. I've also repaired my old neighbour's Time too quite a few times. I only just replaced a failed power supply in it the other day.
 
tiny are nobs
they glue absolutly all the components inside there computors aswell as using dodgey screws
 
I MUST BE A LUCKY BARSTEWARD bought my first p.c. from Tiny Pentium 166mmx £1200 that was before Time took over free printer. printer broke down new one within 2 days gave it to my neice she used it for a while then gave me it back computer still working to this day mate using it as a word prossesor.
 
never bought a TV from richer sound but i always buy audio equipment

and they are the bollox ;)

and that price is a steal might be using me credit card lol
 
Be careful when buying Plasma. The older generation units are not as nice as the newer ones and they suffered with some design issues...


Some experienced overheating

Screen Burn - where an image is left on the screen like the Sly Logo for long periods and burns into the screen. This has been away

Also something to think about many Plasmas do not come with a Tuner and therefore you have to think about cables.

Many plasmas suffer from Lip-Sync problems and this normally is dependent on the input used - i.e RGB or Composite. Even the newer units can suffer from this. Many AV amps now have a delay setting built into the menu to allow you top adjust this.

I agree with MD though Richer Sounds is top notch but they do tend to have the last of the model ranges. Although recently I notice they have some of the newer units too.

Another good place to buy from is Hi-Spek - they are avail on line but telephone the Brentwood shop and speak to Chef - he normally sorts out a good deal. Saved me £700 on my 46" Rear Projection a few years back.

My suggesting is get a copy of Home Cinema Choice magazine and look at the reviews.
