Looks like my tv is on the way out, the picture is smaller in the middle than top and bottom, looking on ebay this looks ok

but with ebay are there such things as bargins when it comes to things like tv.

i bought a 42" plasma (dont know why im always in the garage!) from a mate who works at a place similar to that there all returns the first one i had didnt work he swaped it now no probs at all, saved me hundreds.
seems good price though i got that tv bought about 2 year ago for nearly 1k.

Bought mine off e-bay no probs with service and saved loads on normal price. had prob with power supply they changed complete TV no probs.

Bought a plasma TV from currys, went wrong after 16 months, not a problem I thought as the paperwork with the TV indicated factory guarantee of 2 years although only one year from currys... NOOO

Would not repair under warrantee as main stream suppliers purchase without factory support and sell you a service package. I have purchased another plasma screen now via the internet, gets three years warrantee at no additional costs. Buying main stream is no-longer the best way to go... they just want to sell insurance

richer sounds are a good way to buy.
