Where to buy SONY Bravia 40" TV from..? - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Ello,

I am planning to buy a 40 inch LCD Sony TV and the thing is that the same TV is available for £429 from Amazon.com and £449 from Argos.

As I understand Sony Bravia has 3 years warranty. I would be glad if someone could answer to me that in case I buy the TV from Amazon and something goes wrong during the warranty period then do i need to post the TV back to Amazon or do i take it to Sony Centre near my place (or deal with sony directly).

The reason being that in case I need to take the TV to the retailer, I would rather buy from Argos as they are much easy to deal with (face to face) rather than online..? and If I have to deal with sony directly then I can go for the cheaper deal..?

Would be glad if someone could shed some light on it..!!

Cheers

But the main question still remains the same..If something goes wrong with the TV, will I have to deal with the website or do I deal with sony directly...??

Usually, when you purchase a new TV you are covered by the store and also the manufacturer I believe.

try here m8
i would presume if you did have any problems you would deal with the store but give them a ring to check, i have bought 3 tv's from them with no problems in the last 3 years

Regardless of where you buy it, I'd expect any TV over 32" to be serviced in the home - you might want to ask the question of each of your possible vendors.
